"the Court has concluded that Allergan is not entitled to renewed patent rights for Restasis in the form of a second wave of patent protection."

Although there's still a way to go before a generic is available, this takes one more giant step down the road.

Thought some of you might be interested.

Good because I can't afford it.

It never worked for me at all, but this is AWESOME news for those who found relief with it. So I'm soooo happy to hear this! I have a very high deductible so they were $425 a month.

This is really interesting. This is really interesting cause I am so sick of paying such big prices for meds. It is only right that meds go to generic as soon as possible. Pharm companies sure like to keep them in their pocket so they can fill their pockets with money. Irish
