Item 8.01 Other Events.

As anticipated, the Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") has commenced, and is currently conducting, an inspection of Andrx Corporation's (the "Company") Davie, Florida manufacturing facility.

Forward-looking statements (statements which are not historical facts) in this report are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. For this purpose, any statements contained herein or which are otherwise made by or on behalf of the Company that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, words such as "may," "will," "to," "plan," "expect," "believe," "anticipate," "intend," "could," "should", "would," "estimate," or "continue" or the negative other variations thereof or comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Investors are cautioned that all forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainties, including but not limited to: what sanctions (including warning letters or a consent decree), if any, FDA may seek, following its decision to place Andrx on OAI (Official Action Indicated) status, including without limitation sanctions relating to any failure to comply with cGMP requirements and if and when the "hold" on the Company’s Abbreviated New Drug Application approvals will be lifted, the Company's dependence on a relatively small number of products, licensing revenues, the timing and outcome of litigation and future product launches, government regulation, competition, manufacturing capacities, safety issues, output and quality processes, recent management appointments and changes and the potential loss of senior management and other key personnel. Andrx Corporation is also subject to other risks detailed herein or detailed from time to time in its filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Andrx disclaims any responsibility to update the statements contained herein.
