Business Wire
Law Offices of Howard G. Smith announces that a class action
lawsuit has been filed on behalf of purchasers of the common stock
of K-V Pharmaceutical Company (“K-V Pharmaceutical” or the
“Company”) (NYSE:KV-A) (NYSE:KV-B) between February 14, 2011 and
April 4, 2011, inclusive (the “Class Period”), seeking to pursue
remedies under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The class
action lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for
the Eastern District of Missouri.
KV Pharmaceutical is a specialty pharmaceutical company engaged
in the acquisition, development, manufacture and marketing of
branded and generic/non-branded prescription pharmaceutical
products in the United States, primarily focusing on women’s
healthcare. The Complaint alleges that during the Class Period
defendants issued false and/or misleading statements concerning the
Company’s business and financial prospects. Specifically, the
Complaint alleges that defendants misrepresented that the Food and
Drug Administration (FDA) had granted K-V Pharmaceutical the
exclusive distribution rights over "Makena," a drug used to prevent
miscarriages, and that the FDA would enforce those rights by
preventing K-V’s competitors from distributing generic formulations
of the drug. The Complaint further alleges that defendants failed
to disclosed that the drug’s $1,500 price actually would reduce the
availability of Makena to low-income and other at-risk groups.
