Israel’s Teva Pharmaceutical Industries (NYSE: TEVA) has launched a generic version of Axiron (testosterone) topical solution CIII in the USA.

Originally from US pharma major Eli Lilly (NYSE: LLY) and its partner Acrux (ASX: ACR), this medicine is used to treat adult males who have low or no testosterone due to certain medical conditions. It is supplied in a metered dose pump with an underarm applicator.

Teva’s generic launch of this treatment, which follows that of Ireland-incorporated Perrigo (NYSE: PRGO) in July, comes on the back of the US District Court for the Southern District of Indiana.
