The FTC is challenging a GlaxoSmithKline (GSK)-Teva patent settlement deal, filing an amicus brief that argues authorized generic agreements fall under the category of pay-for-delay deals and are anticompetitive.

K-Dur, and it argues that ruling effectively declared authorized generic deals illegal.
