UNION CITY, Calif., Nov. 2, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Questcor Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq:QCOR) today reported financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2009. As previously reported on September 21, 2009, Questcor’s financial results were negatively affected by the combination of a lower number of shipped and paid prescriptions for the treatment of infantile spasms (IS) and unusually high amounts of Medicaid rebates related to older Acthar usage. These factors were partially offset by the continued sequential improvement in sales of Acthar in the multiple sclerosis (MS) market.
