From Associated Press WorldStream - May 14, 2008
LONDON--AstraZeneca PLC said Wednesday that U.S. regulators have
approved its anti-psychotic drug Seroquel as a maintenance treatment for
patients with bipolar I disorder. Seroquel, already on sale to treat
schizophrenia and depressive or manic episodes, is AstraZeneca's
second-biggest selling drug, generating US$4 billion of sales in 2007,
but it is facing strong potential generic competition.
