[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 1499673"]To All, Check out the FDA Orange Book if you ever have "real" questions in regard to this. In the case of Symbicort, AZ has 4 patents associated with the product providing exclusivity to at least 2014 with some out to 2017. In the case of Advair, the first patents in the US expire in Feb 2008 and others go out until 2011. With combination pulminary drugs, patents really are not the barrier. It is the difficulty of formulating and registering the product. MDIs being the easier of the to formulations for the generics to develop. Hope that clarifies things,[/QUOTE]
