They have been, but they got Viagra in the US extended to December 2020. Lyrica is December 2018.
So they are free to move now and lose their top seller and a top 5 right away.

Lipitor expired in 2012, so they've already felt the loss of that one.
Celebrex was going to expire in December of 2014, but they got an 18 month extension (June 2016).

Beats losing them now, if they were to leave prior to Dec 2020
