Deston Therapeutics Stands By Safety and Efficacy of Auralgan After FDA Action

In its pleadings, the Federal Government asserts that Auralgan is a "new drug", but these allegations did not provide any new information regarding the safety or efficacy of Auralgan. According to Mr. Allera, "The government has not provided any new evidence in i
