Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. said its Teva Pharmaceuticals affiliate has reached an agreement with the attorney general of Texas that settles the state's and its subdivisions opioid-related claims.

Under the terms of the settlement, Teva will pay Texas $150 million over a 15-year time period, and will provide the recently launched generic Narcan naloxone hydrochloride nasal spray, valued at $75 million over 10 years.

Naloxone is a medication that can reverse an overdose from opioids.

The company said it will continue to defend itself in court in states where it hasn't reached terms of a settlement agreement.
