Viatris Fined $1.9 Million Over Alleged Violation of Antitrust Restrictions
Nov 22, 2024 6:24 AM

09:02 AM EST, 11/22/2024 (MT Newswires) -- Viatris ( VTRS ) has been fined 1.5 million UK pounds ($1.9 million) by the UK's Competition and Markets Authority for failing to comply with an order obtaining government approval before making staff changes and failing to report the breach, the regulator said Friday.

The penalty was imposed in response to Viatris' ( VTRS ) sale of the European right to its hormone replacement therapy treatments Duphaston and Femoston to Theramex, which the regulator said could reduce competition.

The regulator said Viatris ( VTRS ) breached restrictions imposed on it during an investigation by "implementing changes to key members of its UK management team" without consent and failing to notify authorities of the breach.

Viatris ( VTRS ) did not immediately reply to MT Newswires' request for comment.
