Pharmaceutical company Mylan NV announced that certain employees of Mylan in Italy were served with search warrants issued by the public prosecutor’s office in Milan, Italy, seeking information concerning interactions with an Italian hospital and sales of certain reimbursable drugs.
The company was not immediately available for additional details outside business hours.
Shares of the drugmaker were down 1.2% at US$37.44 after the bell.
In 2016, Mylan’s pricing of the EpiPen, an epinephrine autoinjector, became controversial. An investigation was opened into whether Mylan had misclassified the EpiPen under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program.
In October 2016, Mylan settled these investigations with the US Department of Justice, agreeing to pay US$465 million.
