INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - Eli

mislabeling and not reporting side
effects of the firm's anti-arthritis
drug Oraflex.
Also. Dr. W.l. Shedden. a for-
mer vice president ot Lilly Re-
search Laboratories, entered a
plea of no contest to 15 counts ol
a separate criminal information.
U.S. District Judge S. Hugh
Diliin fined the company and
Shedden $1,000 on each of 25
misdemeanor counts. Charges
were brought against the firm by
the Federal Drug Administration.
Oraflex. generically known as
benoxaprofen, was introduced in
the United States in May 1982 and
was withdrawn three months
later.
More than 1.400 people in
Great Britain claim they were
damaged or that relatives died
from taking Opren, the European
name for Oraflex.
In a news release, Lilly board
Chairman Richard D. Wood
stressed that the Justice Depart-
ment made no charge that Lilly
withheld any information from
the FDA in order to expedite ap-
proval of Oraflex.
"Since there was no allegation
that Lilly or any of its employees
acted intentionally to conceal in-
formation or mislead the FDA.
the company has agreed to plead
guilty to these two types of techni-
cal misdemeanors ... in order to
avoid the lime and expense of
prolonged litigation and to bring
the Oraflex matter to a
conclusion.”
The first misdemeanor charge
was that Lilly unintentionally
provided inadequate warnings.
The second misdemeanor
charge was that Lilly was uninten-
tionally late in filing reports to the
FDA of 10 liver or liver-kidney
reactions following approval of
the drug.
