USFDA Marketing Approval of Coated Nicotine Gum, Granted to Perrigo
The Perrigo Company has been granted USFDA marketing approval for the over-the-counter (OTC) coated nicotine polacrilex gum USP, 2 mg (mint) and 4 mg (mint): a product that will be marketed under store brand labels that is comparable to GlaxoSmithKline's Nicorette® Fresh Mint™ coated gum, an aid in quitting smoking.
"Perrigo is committed to providing retail customers key new products for their store brand programs, and this approval is consistent with our strategy to invest in new product development. We are pleased with this important addition to our store brand nicotine replacement therapy product offering, even though some sales may come at the expense of our uncoated gum products," said John T. Hendrickson, Executive Vice President and General Manager, Perrigo Consumer Healthcare.

Shipment of the product will commence in the fourth quarter of 2006.
