Watson Pharma rolls out generic Amrix

Watson Pharma, a subsidiary of Watson Pharmaceuticals, has rolled out an authorized generic version of Amrix (Cyclobenzaprine Hydrochloride extended-release capsules) 15mg and 30mg, under its agreement with Cephalon subsidiary Anesta.

Amrix is approved for use along with rest and physical therapy to help control muscle spasm associated with acute, painful musculoskeletal conditions.

Under the pact, Anesta manufactures and supplies all doses strength of the generic drug to Watson.
