AFT welcomes Australian Federal Court appeal success
AFT Pharmaceuticals (NZX; AFT, ASX; AFP) today welcomes the Australian Federal
Court’s decision this week to allow its appeal of a comparative advertising judgement
brought by Reckitt Benckiser.
The Australian Federal Court has found AFT was justified in making a series of claims in
relation to the efficacy of its Maxigesic pain relief tablets in comparison to Ibuprofen
alone or paracetamol alone.
Reckitt Benckiser has until 4 January 2022 to file an application for special leave to
appeal to the High Court should it so chose.
We are therefore unable to make further comment at this time.
For and on behalf of AFT Pharmaceuticals Limited by Malcolm Tubby, Chief Financial
Officer.
