Teva (TEVA) shares fall in reaction to price fixing allegations

Teva Pharmaceutical Industries fell more than 9% Monday morning in reaction to a lawsuit filed by 44 states.

Teva, along with other global drug companies, is accused of conspiring to inflate the prices of their generic therapies by as much as 1,000%, according to the lawsuit filed last Friday. The allegations include drug companies and their executives were not only involved in a price-fixing scheme, but were aware their alleged actions were illegal.

According to the Center for Justice and Democracy at New York Law School, 80 percent of all drugs prescribed are generic, and generic drugs are chosen 94 percent of the time when they are available.
