Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories has announced that the U.S. District Court (Southern District, New York) has granted a summary judgment that the Omeprazole Mg OTC ANDA filed by Dr. Reddy’s does not infringe the patents in suit related to Astra Zeneca’s Prilosec OTC®. Commenting on the judgment, Amit Patel, Head – North America Generics, Dr. Reddy’s, said, “We are very pleased with the favorable summary judgment ruling in the Omeprazole Mg OTC litigation.
