Glenmark’s fluticasone propionate 0.05% lotion is the generic version of Nycomed US Cutivate lotion.
Cutivate (fluticasone propionate, 0.05%) lotion is a topical prescription medication for the relief of skin pain, redness and itching due to eczema in adults and in children one year of age and older.
Earlier, Nycomed has filed a lawsuit against Glenmark in December 2008, related to Glenmark’s ANDA for fluticasone propionate lotion.
If Glenmark successfully challenges Nycomed’s patent, it will be entitled to a 180-day exclusivity period.
