Massachusetts’ Medicaid program relies on prices reported by pharmaceutical companies to determine what it will pay to pharmacies for ingredient costs for prescription drugs. Mylan has agreed to pay more than $2.6 million to settle the allegations it had reported inflated prices of its drugs. The settlement resolves claims related to drugs Mylan manufactured and sold from 1998-2003, including Clozapine, Phenytoin Sodium and Lorazapam.
In agreeing to the settlement, Mylan is not admitting any wrongdoing.
