Court upholds CMAโ€™s ยฃ99m fine on pharma over excessive NHS thyroid drug prices The Court of Appeal has unanimously upheld the CMAโ€™s finding that Advanz broke the law by overcharging the NHS for essential thyroid drug liothyronine.

We really welcome the courtโ€™s decision clearly signalling the pharma companies' behaviour was unacceptable & caused undue harm to patients and the NHS.
We hope this decision will pave the way for patients with a clinical need for liothyronine to be able to obtain it on the NHS
