That must be Teva's agent in Canada because they did try to make a "challenge" on Seroquel but I don't believe it has worked yet in the US -- patent challenging has happened before and the laws are complex. The patent rules in Canada are a little different and I am not familiar or of understanding why some generics get earlier approval.
There is supposedly a tentative settlement that may go up in the courts this year between Astra-Zeneca and Teva and Sandoz.Meanwhile, the marketed agent here in the US is brand name until 2011 or otherwise.
