US FTC general counsel stays in-house insulin pricing suit against PBMs

( April 1, 2025, 21:21 GMT | Official Statement) -- MLex Summary: The general counsel of the US Federal Trade Commission has ordered that an in-house administrative antitrust lawsuit the agency brought against three largest pharmacy benefit managers be stayed. Lucas Croslow wrote in the order that complaint counsel and the PBMs jointly moved for an expedited order halting the administrative proceeding, citing the lack of sitting commissioners able to participate. FTC Chairman Andrew Ferguson and Republican Commissioner Melissa Holyoak are both recused. The FTC delegates its functions to the general counsel when the agency lacks a quorum, no commissioner is available or participating, and either no party or intervenor would be adversely affected by the delegated action and entitled to seek review by the FTC or if all adversely affected parties or intervenors have waived the right to agency review, the order said.See attached document....
