- A divided federal appeals court on Friday ruled against Indivior Plc in its bid to stop Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories Ltd and Alvogen from selling generic versions of its opioid addiction treatment Suboxone film that infringed its patents.

Suboxone film is applied below a patient’s tongue, where it dissolves to release two active ingredients, buprenorphine and naloxone. The court also said another generic drugmaker, Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd, did not show that the patent concerning the drying process should be voided. Alvogen spokesman Halldor Kristmannsson said the company, which has offices in New Jersey, was also pleased. Teva’s lawyers did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Fuck ya now I can buy twice as much

It’s a horrible drug. Coming off if it is hell on earth.

Good. The Suboxone strips go for 12$ a piece at the cheapest of all our local pharmacies. Most doctors require you take 2 a day(25$/day) The pharmacies give you 5 chances to get 60 filled a month. So after 5 attempts and your only able to fill 25, you then lose the remaining 35.
