Generic drug company Mylan increased its offer for over-the-counter giant Perrigo Friday, days after Israel’s Teva attempted to head off that deal with its own bid for Mylan.

The bid was worth about $222 dollars per share, or around $32.6 billion in total, based on Mylan’s closing price on Thursday.
That topped Mylan’s $205 a share proposal on April 8, which was rejected Tuesday by Perrigo’s board as too low, undervaluing its growth prospects.
