Lupin resolves Lunesta tablets dispute

Lupin and Lupin Pharmaceuticals have resolved its patent dispute related to Lunesta (Eszopicolone) tablets with Dainippon Sumitomo Pharma, which follows the dismissing of a patent suit brought by Sunovion Pharmaceuticals, a subsidiary of Dainippon Sumitomo.

Lunesta, a sedative, also called a hypnotic, is used to treat insomnia and causes relaxation to help you fall asleep and stay asleep.
The suit settlement allows Lupin to sell its generic version of Lunesta under a license as soon as 30 November 2013.

Lupin is a led transnational pharmaceutical company that produces a range of generic and branded formulations and APIs for the developed and developing markets of the world.
