Prevnar family sales in the U.S. were up 59%, driven by strong retail and wholesaler stocking of Prevnar 20 for the adult indication and favorable timing of government purchases of Prevnar 13 for the pediatric indication. Global Eliquis sales were up 12% operationally. Vyndaqel/Vyndamax globally, up 41% operationally.

Ibrance in the U.S. was down 5%, due primarily to an increase in the proportion of patients accessing Ibrance through Pfizer’s Patient Assistance Program.
 
Global Chantix sales were down 99% operationally, which continues to be negatively impacted by a global pause in shipments of Chantix due to the presence of N-nitroso-varenicline above an acceptable level of intake set by various global regulators.
