Akorn falls further on warning letter
The market value of generic drug developer Akorn (Nasdaq: AKRX) is now just a tenth of what it was a year ago after more bad news emerged on Wednesday.

Akorn has not revealed further details of the letter but pledged to work with the FDA to resolve the issues raised in the letter, saying that it has full confidence in the quality of the products manufactured at the plant, where the company expects to continue production.
