Generic Drug Price-Fixing
(Salem, OR) -- Oregon's Attorney General has reached settlement agreements with two manufacturers of generic drugs. Heritage Pharmaceuticals and Apotex will pay a combined 49-million dollars for alleged price-fixing. They're accused of violating both federal and Oregon antitrust laws. The companies will also cooperate with other investigations into 30 corporations and 25 individual executives. The settlements still need approval from other states that are involved.
