Pfizer keeps Viagra patent

A court in Canada has ruled in favour of drugs giant Pfizer as it sought to protect the patent on ED treatment Viagra.

The court found that Apotex will not be able to sell a generic form of the patented product until 2014, as it would be an infringement of Pfizer's rights, reports Bloomberg.

However, spokesperson for Apotex Elie Betito has confirmed to the news source that the company will be appealing against the decision.

"We're definitely moving to the next level. Taking the case to Canada's federal court of appeal will be pursued in line with the company's goal of providing affordable medication to patients," he said.

Pfizer states that Viagra has proven its safety profile after nine years of usage and it will help most men suffering with ED to attain an erection, including those with other issues such as high blood pressure.
