On November 6, 2017, U.S. Senator Kamal Harris announced the opening of an investigation into Alkermes' sales practices for Vivitrol. Senator Harris stated that the Company "aggressively marketed" its medication, convincing judges and prison officials to use it rather than more proven addiction treatments and spent hundreds of thousands of dollars lobbying policymakers.



On this news, Alkermes' stock dropped $2.23, or 4.37%, to close at $48.76 on November 6, 2017, thereby injuring investors.
