ITEM 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER

                This Amendment No. 5 to statement on Schedule 13D (this "Statement") relates to the Common Stock, par value $.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), of Andrx Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer" or the "Company"), the principal executive offices of which are located at 4955 Orange Drive, Davie, Florida 33314. This Amendment No. 5 amends and restates in full each of the items set forth below. Terms not defined in this Amendment No. 5 shall have the respective meanings given to such terms in the Schedule 13D originally deemed filed on July 20, 2005 ("Original Schedule 13D").

ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

                The total purchase price of the 8,409,500 shares of Common Stock (the "Shares") purchased by MMI Investments was $157,539,863; the source of funds is a combination of MMI's working capital and margin loans. These margin loans were obtained from Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc. and Merrill Lynch & Co. under customary terms and conditions. The entire principal amount of such margin loans remains outstanding as of the date of this Statement.

ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

                MMI Investments purchased the Shares as part of its investment activities. The Reporting Persons intend to review and evaluate the investment by MMI Investments in the Common Stock of the Issuer on an ongoing basis and may, depending upon their evaluation of the business and prospects of the Issuer, or such other considerations as they may deem relevant, determine to increase, decrease, or dispose of MMI Investments' holdings of Common Stock. As a part of such review and evaluation, the Reporting Persons may communicate with the Issuer's management, directors and other shareholders.

                In order to allow MMI Investments to increase its ownership to more than 10% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Issuer, MMI Investments on February 6, 2006 filed a Notification and Report Form under the Hart Scott Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended ("HSR Act") and requested early termination of the waiting period pursuant to the HSR Act. The Issuer made its responsive HSR filing on February 23, 2006, and the Federal Trade Commission granted such early termination on February 27, 2006, permitting the Reporting Persons under HSR to purchase additional shares of Common Stock such that the Reporting Persons would hold up to $567 million in total market value of Common Stock at the time of such purchase. However, MMI Investments will not purchase Common Stock of the Issuer if, as a result of the purchase, it would own more than 14.9% of the outstanding Common Stock (which would have represented a market value of $217,528,974 based on the number of shares outstanding at November 1, 2005 and the closing price on March 2, 2006).

                Other than as described in this Item 4, neither Reporting Person, nor, to the knowledge of each Reporting Person, any individuals listed on Schedule I, has any current plan or proposal that relates to or would result in any of the transactions or other matters specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D; provided that the Reporting Persons reserve the right to develop such plans or proposals.

ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

    (a)-(b)    Based on 73,400,000 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of November 1, 2005, as reported in the Issuer's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on November 7, 2005, the Shares owned by MMI Investments represent approximately 11.5% of the outstanding Common Stock. MMI Investments has the sole power to direct the vote and disposition of such Shares on the date of this Statement. However, by virtue of being the general partner of MMI Investments, MCM may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the Shares owned by MMI Investments and to have sole power over the voting and disposition of such Shares as a result of its having the sole power to make voting and disposition decisions on behalf of MMI Investments with respect to such Shares.

                Except for the Shares owned by MMI Investments, as of the date hereof, neither MCM nor, to MMI Investments' and MCM's knowledge, any of the persons listed on Schedule I, owns any Common Stock of the Issuer or has any right to acquire, directly or indirectly, any beneficial ownership of other Common Stock of the Issuer.

    (c)        Except for the open market purchases of Common Stock by MMI Investments set forth in Schedule II attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference, there have been no transactions with respect to the Common Stock, since the February 24, 2006 filing of Amendment No. 4 to the Original Schedule 13D, by MMI Investments, MCM, or, to either Reporting Person's knowledge, any of the persons listed on Schedule I.

    (d)        No person other than MMI Investments is known to either Reporting Person to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from or the proceeds from the sale of, any of the Shares referred to in Item 5(a) above.

    (e)        Not applicable.


ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS, OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

                By virtue of being the general partner of MMI Investments, MCM may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the Shares of the Issuer owned by MMI Investments. Other than as described in Item 3 of this Statement (and the Joint Filing Agreement filed as an Exhibit to this Statement), there are no contracts, arrangements or understandings between the Reporting Persons or between either of the Reporting Persons and any other person with respect to any securities of the Issuer.

ITEM 7. MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS
