The company believes that it has 180 days of marketing exclusivity for generic dorzolamide hydrochloride with timolol maleate ophthalmic solution, and will begin marketing the product upon the completion of Merck's pediatric exclusivity period in October 2008. The company has a partner for the product who will share in the profits.
