Raloxifene Hydrochloride (Evista) 60 mg Tablets: Court issued preliminary injunction against generic launch by Teva

Innovator Eli Lilly announced (in a press release Here) that the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Indiana has issued a preliminary injunction to prevent “at risk launch” of a generic version of Lilly's medicine Raloxifene Hydrochloride (Evista) 60 mg Tablets by Teva until the Court renders its final ruling.


Earlier, Teva had indicated it was prepared to launch the generic version prior to the resolution of outstanding patent litigation currently being considered by the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Indiana. Lilly had previously sought and been granted a temporary restraining order to prevent the generic launch.

Also, as per press release from Teva ( Here ), Teva will appeal against said decision.
