Novartis Unit: FDA OKs Lamisil For Over-The-Counter Mkt
Dow Jones Newswires
3/22/2000
SUMMITT, N.J. -- Novartis AG's (Z.NOV) Novartis Consumer Health unit said the Food and Drug Administration approved switching the company's Lamisil Solution drug to over-the-counter from prescription status.

In a press release Tuesday, the pharmaceutical company said it will introduce new liquid Lamisil products for treating athlete's foot, jock itch and ringworm in the spring.

The FDA decision follows a similar March 1999 ruling allowing the company's Lamisil cream to be sold over the counter.

The company's Lamisil tablets will remain available only by prescription.

Wonder if we'll see advertising on TV.
