June

Barr Pharmaceuticals Inc. and Eli Lilly & Co. have settled a patent dispute involving a weekly-dosage version of the anti-depression medication, Prozac, Barr announced today.

The parties voluntarily dismissed all claims and counterclaims in the patent litigation Friday, said Barr, who’s Pomona-based Barr Laboratories Inc. unit was sued by Eli Lilly in May 2006. Barr still needs Food and Drug Administration approval to sell its 90-milligram version of the drug, Prozac Weekly, which had sales of approximately $30 million in the year ending March, based on industry data, Barr said.
