Check the appropriate box below if the Form 8-K filing is intended to simultaneously satisfy the filing obligation of the registrant under any of the following provisions:

Item 7.01    Regulation FD Disclosure.

As previously disclosed in its Current Report on Form 8-K filed August 4, 2012, K-V Pharmaceutical Company (the “Company”) and certain of its wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries (collectively, the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court”).

September Monthly Operating Report

On October 15, 2012, the Debtors filed with the Bankruptcy Court their Monthly Operating Report for the period from September 1, 2012 to September 30, 2012 (the “MOR-September 2012”), which included certain Makena^® performance metrics. A copy of the MOR-September 2012 is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Authorization to Use Cash Collateral

As previously reported in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed August 13, 2012, the Bankruptcy Court entered an Agreed Interim Order on August 10, 2012, which, among other things, authorized the Debtors' use of their cash collateral.

On September 14, 2012, the Bankruptcy Court entered an Order (the “Final Cash Collateral Order”), which, among other things, authorized the Debtors to use their cash collateral through and including October 18, 2012.

On October 16, 2012, the Bankruptcy Court “So Ordered” a stipulation extending the Debtors' authorization to use their cash collateral through and including November 21, 2012, unless such authority is terminated in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Final Cash Collateral Order.

Regulation FD Disclosure

This Current Report on Form 8-K (including Exhibit 99.1 hereto and any information contained therein) shall not be deemed to be an admission as to the materiality of any information required to be disclosed solely by reason of Regulation FD. The information in this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Financial and Operating Data

The Company cautions investors and potential investors not to place undue reliance upon the information contained in the MOR-September 2012, which was not prepared for the purpose of providing the basis for an investment decision relating to any of the securities of the Company. The Company cannot predict what the ultimate value of any of its securities may be and it remains too early to determine whether holders of any such securities will receive any distribution in the Debtors' reorganization. In particular, in most cases under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, holders of equity securities receive little or no recovery of value from their investment. The MOR-September 2012 is limited in scope, covers a limited time period and has been prepared solely for the purpose of complying with the monthly reporting requirements of the Office of the United States Trustee of the Southern District of New York and the Bankruptcy Court. The MOR-September 2012 was not audited or reviewed by independent accountants, is in a format prescribed by applicable bankruptcy laws and regulations and is subject to future adjustment and reconciliation. The MOR-September 2012 does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP. Therefore, the MOR-September 2012 does not necessarily contain all information required in filings pursuant to the Exchange Act, or may present such information differently from such requirements. There can be no assurance that, from the perspective of an investor or potential investor in the Company's securities, the MOR-September 2012 is complete. The MOR-September 2012 also contains information for periods which are shorter or otherwise different from those required in the Company's reports pursuant to the Exchange Act, and such information might not be indicative of the Company's financial condition or operating results for the period that would be reflected in the Company's financial statements or in its reports pursuant to the Exchange Act. Results set forth in the MOR-September 2012 should not be viewed as indicative of future results.
