The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has increased the production limit for Takeda Pharmaceutical’s ADHD drug Vyvanse and its generic versions by about 24% to address the medicine’s ongoing shortage in the United States.

Plaintiffs claiming that Kenvue’s popular painkiller Tylenol causes attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in the children of mothers who took it while pregnant have lost a last ditch bid to revive their claims after a judge rejected their last remaining expert witness.

Yesterday Tris Pharma secured the FDA’s green light for Onyda XR, the first liquid non-stimulant nighttime treatment for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in pediatric patients.

The ruling on Monday by U.S. District Judge Denise Cote in Manhattan federal court likely means the end of a consolidated mass tort litigation of about 500 lawsuits over the popular over-the-counter drug, unless plaintiffs get it reversed on appeal.
