PRNewswire-FirstCall
ALLEGAN, Mich.

Perrigo Company (NASDAQ: PRGO)(TASE: PRGO) today announced that the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey has denied Connetics Corporation's motion for a preliminary injunction related to Perrigo's Clobetasol Propionate Foam, the AB-rated generic equivalent to Connetics' Olux® Foam and has lifted the temporary restraints that have prevented Perrigo from launching the product. The Court also denied Perrigo's motion for Summary Judgment based on non- infringement. The case will now proceed to trial with the trial date not having been set.

With the temporary restraints lifted, Perrigo has commenced launching the product. As the first filer, this commences its 180 days of generic exclusivity.
