3M has already done studies for the Taper inhaler using a generic version of Advair. "3M Taper Advair" Check out the 3 or 4 PDF and PPT links below from 3M's site that shows tests done against Glaxo Advair Diskus. Taper has shown to be more efficient at lower cost than Advair Diskus. This deal gets better and better the more I read and research about it. The pieces are all there from 3M for Adamis to move forward with a generic version of Advair supplied by 3M. I'm not sure people realize that from reading the press release. Looking forward to the conference call on Tuesday where hopefully this will be made abundantly clear.

(Nasdaq: MYL) today announced that it has received all regulatory approvals and has completed an agreement with Pfizer for the exclusive worldwide rights to develop, manufacture and commercialize a novel long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA) compound for various indications.
Mylan expects that this product, which is ready to enter Phase IIb, will be submitted to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for approval as a new chemical entity, and expects the product to benefit from long-term patent protection in the U.S. through 2029. Mylan expects to further develop this compound into combination therapies and that these products will utilize the multi-dose dry powder inhaler technology, also licensed from Pfizer.

By adding a novel LAMA compound to our capabilities, we will have the opportunity to bring additional combination products to market, including triple-combination therapies, and further differentiate Mylan as a leader in this important therapeutic area."
