Teva Announces Launch of Generic Version of Uceris in US
On July 9, Teva announced the launch of its generic Uceris (budesonide) extended-release tablets (nine milligrams) in the United States. In November 2017, Teva prevailed in its litigation challenging Valeant Pharmaceuticals’ (VRX) Uceris patent, which was acquired through the acquisition of Salix in 2015. Teva was the first applicant to file an ANDA (abbreviated new drug application) for generic Uceris.
