"Abbott Laboratories v. Gardner", ussc|387|136|1967 was a case heard before the United States Supreme Court. "Abbott Laboratories" held that drug companies were not prohibited by ripeness doctrine from challenging an FDA regulation requiring a prescription drug's generic name to appear on all related printed materials. The government argued that the case was not ripe because the regulation had yet to be enforced; however, that argument failed where prosecution was likely and there was substantial hardship to denying a pre-enforcement challenge to the statute.
