The patent EP2249847 was granted to Ipsen Consumer Healthcare on Apr 12, 2017. The application was filed on Feb 6, 2009 under application number EP09720028A. The patent is currently recorded with a legal status of "Revoked".

Patent oppositions filed by competitors challenge the validity of a granted patent. These oppositions are typically based on claims of prior art, lack of novelty, or non-obviousness. They are a key part of the process for determining a patent's strength and enforceability.
