elivered by these products was partially offset by net sales declines in certain other products, primarily ESTROSTEP FE, SARAFEM and FEMHRT.

The Company uses IMS Health, Inc. estimates of filled prescriptions for our products as a proxy for market demand.

Net sales of our oral contraceptive products increased $4.2 million, or 5.6%, in the quarter ended June 30, 2009, compared with the prior year quarter. LOESTRIN 24 FE generated revenues of $58.0 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2009, an increase of 15.5% compared with $50.2 million in the prior year quarter.
