Source: FDANews.com. The FDA has declined to review a citizen petition submitted by the neuroscience division of Teva Pharma (TEVA) asking the agency not to accept applications for generic versions of the Copaxone multiple sclerosis treatment until certain conditions are met. The agency told Teva that it would be “premature and inappropriate” to review the Copaxone (glatiramer acetate) petition filed last September. In addition, the FDA didn’t address or take action on Teva’s requests in the petition, the company says in a statement. <> <> <>http://biomedreports.com/articles/la>>>...

With the S&P 500 SPDR ETF (SPY) trading about 8% below its 50-day moving average (DMA), I went in search of oversold healthcare stocks trading at least 16% below their 50 DMA which have potential catalysts within the next six months that may provide some very nice returns.
The Healthcare Sector SPDR (XLV) is trading about 12% below its 50 DMA amidst concerns of sweeping healthcare reform that would threaten the profits of health insurers, managed care companies, big pharma, and biotechs – although such concerns may be overblown given the failed attempts at large scale healthcare reform in < />< />< />< />< />< /><>>< />< />< />< />< />< />< />< />< />< /><>><><>< />><>< />><>< />><>< />><>< />><>< />><>< />><>< />><>< />><>< />><>< />>>< />...

Elsewhere in the industry, India-based Ranbaxy (RANBAXY.NS) lost about 20% of its market value today on word the FDA would not review new generic drug prod...
