Bayer drops lawsuit against Teva over Yaz/Gianvi, but the fight continues
Bayer has dropped its patent suit in Delaware against Teva Pharmaceuticals Industries Ltd., and Barr Pharmaceuticals for infringing on its multi-million-dollar-selling oral contraceptive Yaz. Bayer had filed the lawsuit claiming TVA’s generic version of Yaz, known as Gianvi, infringed on Yaz. However, Bayer says it is maintaining its patent suit against Teva and Barr in Nevada District Court.
