HERTFORDSHIRE, England and PITTSBURGH - Sept. 8, 2017 - On Sept. 5, 2017, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ('FDA') issued a warning letter to Meridian Medical Technologies, a Pfizer company (together, 'Pfizer') which is the sole manufacturer for Mylan Specialty L.P., a subsidiary of Mylan N.V., of the EpiPen® Auto-Injector, the EpiPen Jr® Auto-Injector and the authorized generic for both the EpiPen® Auto-Injector and the EpiPen Jr® Auto-Injector. The warning letter, which can be accessed at https://www.fda.gov/ICECI/EnforcementActions/WarningLetters/2017/ucm574981.htm, was issued in connection with FDA's inspection of Pfizer's pharmaceutical manufacturing facility located in Brentwood, Missouri, where the EpiPen® products are manufactured.

Pfizer is continuing to work with the FDA to resolve the points raised in the warning letter regarding Pfizer's manufacturing of the EpiPen® products and Mylan will do whatever it can to support this process. The warning letter does not affect Pfizer's ability to manufacture and supply the EpiPen® products from the Brentwood, Missouri site, and the Company does not currently anticipate any impact on the supply of EpiPen® products based on this warning letter. Mylan is confident in the safety and efficacy of the EpiPen® products being produced at the site.
