ALLEGAN, Mich., Dec. 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Perrigo Company (Nasdaq: PRGO; TASE) today announced that it has received final approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for its Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) for over-the-counter (OTC) Ibuprofen and Diphenhydramine Citrate Tablets, 200/38 mg. Perrigo is expecting to begin product shipments to retailers during the first quarter of calendar year 2009.

Papa stated, "We are obviously delighted by this latest approval, which is another example of Perrigo's continuing investments to make quality healthcare more affordable to American consumers.
