Life does not get any easier for Pfizer (NYSE: PFE). Forget generics. Now other drug firms are ganging up on them. Merck (NYSE: MRK) and Schering-Plough (NYSE: SGP) are going to offer drug that combines their cholestoral drug with Pfizer blockbuster Lipitor. Its patent expires in three years.

Pfizer has defied gravity this year. Its stock trades at $25.66. In July, it was down to $22.28. The company has cut considerable staff. But, unless it has some rabbits in the pipeline hat, life is about to get very rough.
