Canadian Federal Court Upholds Viagra Patent

Business Wire, Sept 28, 2007

NEW YORK -- Pfizer Inc said today that the Canadian Federal Court in Toronto has ruled that Pfizer's second medical use patent covering Viagra would be infringed by Apotex' proposed generic product. The court granted the company's application for an order preventing Apotex from launching a generic version of Viagra until expiration of Canadian Patent No. 2,163,446 in 2014.

The decision is subject to appeal.
