SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Pomerantz Law Firm Reminds Shareholders with Losses on Their Investment in AMAG Pharmaceuticals, Inc. of Class Action Lawsuit Investigation - AMAG

NEW YORK, May 28, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Pomerantz Grossman Hufford Dahlstrom & Gross LLP is investigating claims on behalf of investors of AMAG Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("AMAG" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: AMAG) (CUSIP: 00163U106 ) who purchased AMAG common stock between May 10, 2012 and May 21, 2013 (the "Class Period"). Such investors are advised to contact Robert S. Willoughby at [email protected] or 888-476-6529, ext. 237.

The investigation concerns whether AMAG and certain of its officers and/or directors have violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

On May 22, 2013, the Company announced in regulatory filing that it has been made aware by Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited, the exclusive product distributor of ferumoxytol in Switzerland, that it is recalling one specific batch of Rienso, ferumoxytol, from the Swiss market. This decision is based on a cluster of four post-marketing adverse event reports in Switzerland concerning hypersensitivity reactions of varying severity following the administration of Rienso from the recalled batch, and at least one fatality has occurred as a result of the use of the drug in Switzerland.  On this news announcement, shares of AMAG fell $2.68 or 10.68% to close at $22.40 on May 22, 2013.
