Weldon, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “While we will continue to see near-term pressures on the business for 2011, we remain committed to investing in innovative products, a robust pipeline and talented people who will sustain our growth and increase our market leadership in one of the most important and rewarding industries in the world.”

Domestic sales decreased 19.3%; international sales increased 1.2%, which reflected an operational decline of 1.0% and a positive currency impact of 2.2%.
Sales were significantly impacted by the previously announced recalls of certain over-the-counter medicines and the suspension of manufacturing at the McNeil Consumer Healthcare Fort Washington, Pa., facility as well as the currency devaluation in Venezuela. With respect to the McNeil Consumer Healthcare product recalls, Mr. Weldon stated, “We have made a commitment to restoring these products to the levels of quality and compliance that consumers expect of Johnson & Johnson.”
Positive contributors to the operational sales results included anti-smoking aids and AVEENO®, Dabao, and JOHNSON’S® skin care products.

Sales results include the strong performance of newly launched products including STELARATM (ustekinumab), a biologic approved for the treatment of moderate to severe plaque psoriasis; SIMPONITM (golimumab), a biologic approved to treat adults with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis; and INVEGA® SUSTENNATM (paliperidone palmitate) a once-monthly, long-acting, injectable atypical antipsychotic for the acute and maintenance treatment of schizophrenia in adults.
Several other products also had strong operational sales growth including REMICADE® (infliximab), a biologic approved for the treatment of a number of immune mediated inflammatory diseases; PREZISTA® (darunavir), a treatment for HIV; VELCADE® (bortezomib), a treatment for multiple myeloma; and international sales of RISPERDAL® CONSTA® (risperidone) Long-Acting Treatment, an antipsychotic medication.
Sales results of TOPAMAX® (topiramate), an antiepileptic and a treatment for migraine, and RISPERDAL® (risperidone), an antipsychotic medication, were negatively impacted by continued generic competition.
During the quarter, the Company submitted a New Drug Application (NDA) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for abiraterone acetate administered with prednisone, an investigational drug for the treatment of metastatic, advanced prostate cancer in patients who have received prior chemotherapy containing a taxane. In addition, the Company submitted supplemental Biologics License Applications to the FDA seeking to expand the SIMPONI® label for the inhibition of structural damage in the treatment of psoriatic arthritis and for REMICADE® (infliximab) for the treatment of moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis in pediatric patients who have had an inadequate response to conventional therapy.
Also during the quarter, Janssen-Cilag International NV filed marketing authorization applications with the European Medicines Agency (EMA) for abiraterone acetate and for telaprevir, an investigational, oral, direct-acting antiviral for the treatment of chronic genotype 1 hepatitis C virus. The Company also received a positive opinion from the EMA’s Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use recommending the granting of a marketing authorization for paliperidone palmitate for the treatment of schizophrenia.
In January 2011, the Company submitted a NDA to the FDA for rivaroxaban, an investigational, oral, once-daily anticoagulant for the prevention of stroke and non-CNS systemic embolism in patients with atrial fibrillation.

This growth was partially offset by lower sales in the Cordis franchise, reflecting continued market and competitive pressures in the drug-eluting stent market.
