WILMINGTON, Del.--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--[ Rigrodsky & Long, P.A. ] announces that it is investigating potential claims against the board of directors of CPEX Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (aCPEXa or the aCompanya) (Nasdaq: CPEX) concerning possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of law related to the Companya™s entry into an agreement to be acquired by Footstar, Inc. (aFootstara) in a transaction valued at approximately $76.6 million. Click here to learn how to join the action: [ http://www.rigrodskylong.com/news/CPEXPharmaceuticalsInc-CPEX ].
