Alliance Pharma PLC has successfully appealed the Competition and Markets Authority's (CMA) decision regarding anti-competitive conduct in relation to four companies. The Competition Appeal Tribunal (CAT) has set aside the CMA's decision, and Alliance has been successful in its appeal. The CMA had alleged anti-competitive agreements in relation to the sale of prescription prochlorperazine, a small, out-licensed product in Alliance's pharmaceutical portfolio from June 2013 until July 2018. The CAT's judgment can be viewed on their website.

The CMA had previously issued a finding that all four companies, including Alliance, had infringed competition law and imposed fines, including £7.9m for Alliance. However, the Tribunal has now handed down its judgment, setting aside the CMA's decision and finding that there was no breach of competition law.
