AFT welcomes Australian Federal Court appeal success

9 December 2021 AFT welcomes Australian Federal Court appeal success AFT Pharmaceuticals (NZX; AFT, ASX; AFP) today welcomes the Australian Federal Court's decision this week to allow its appeal of a comparative advertising judgement brought by Reckitt Benckiser. The Australian Federal Court has found AFT was justified in making a series of claims in relation to the efficacy of its Maxigesic pain relief tablets in comparison to Ibuprofen alone or paracetamol alone. Reckitt Benckiser has until 4 January 2022 to file an application for special leave to appeal to the High Court should it so chose. We are therefore unable to make further comment at this time.
