Santa Ana, CA

SANTA ANA, CA (06/13/2013) -- McGuff Pharmaceuticals, Inc. continues to pursue the approval of an Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) for Hydroxyprogesterone Caproate Injection, USP 250mg/mL, 5mL, multiple dose vial; a generic version of Bristol-Myers Squibb's drug formerly known as Delalutin™. We are providing this update in response to varied inquiries regarding the anticipated approval and market introduction dates for McGuff's Hydroxyprogesterone Caproate Injection, USP drug product.

Regarding the status of our pending ANDA, to date, McGuff has responded to all Food and Drug Administration (FDA) inquiries concerning the ANDA submitted in October 2009. While we are hopeful that a final decision will be made soon, McGuff can not predict when the Agency will make it's final determination concerning the ANDA approval. We remain committed to bringing Hydroxyprogesterone Caproate Injection, USP to market as quickly as possible.

Our commitment to bring cost effective branded and generic injectable drugs to the U.S. and International markets, for the benefit of patients in need, continues to be one of our driving principles.
