Note of Interest: In 1997 When Bayer sued Eaton Veterinary Laboratories in Federal Court for Trademark Infringement--Eaton was owned by Galleon One Inc. D/B/A Easton Veterinary Laboratories. This is a another reason for more transparency, something this blog has advocated since its beginning. Consumers of compounding medications would not know that when researching Roadrunner they would also need to look under multiple other names to find information.
