The company said it continued to experience strong patient market share held and strong hospital demand for AGGRASTAT during the three months ended March 31, 2019, however increases in volume compared to the three months ended March 31, 2018 were offset by increased price competition that resulted in lower discounted prices for AGGRASTAT throughout the quarter.
