Breckenridge Pharmaceutical's patent litigation posture indicates it operates as a defendant, defending against patent challenges. The company has one tracked case, where it appears as a defendant in a Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) proceeding.

The notable case, Unified Patents, LLC v. Breckenridge Pharmaceutical Inc., initiated in 2024, is before the PTAB. Unified Patents is an organization known for challenging patents, often those asserted by Non-Practicing Entities (NPEs), by filing inter partes reviews (IPRs) to deter what it considers low-quality patents. This indicates that Breckenridge Pharmaceutical is an operating company whose patents are being challenged. Breckenridge has also been involved in district court patent litigation in the past, such as cases concerning obvious-type double patenting (ODP) issues.
