                      CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET
                      ------------------------------------


   The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet
as of September 30, 1995, reflects the pro forma condensed consolidated
balance sheet of Forest Laboratories, Inc. and Subsidiaries ("Forest"),
giving effect to the pro forma adjustment described herein as though the
acquisitions had occurred on September 30, 1995.  Unaudited pro forma
condensed consolidated statements of income for the year ended March 31,
1995 and the six months ended September 30, 1995 have not been presented,
as the pro forma adjustments would have an immaterial effect on these
statements.  The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet
gives effect to Forest's acquisition of 1,800,000 common shares, without
par value, of Biovail Corporation International ("BCI") and the acquisition
of an exclusive license to market Biovail Laboratories, Inc.'s, a wholly-
owned subsidiary of BCI, once-daily formulation of diltiazem in the United
States.  The aggregate consideration paid for the acquisition was
approximately $95.6 million.

   For a more detailed description of the terms of the acquisitions see
the Form 8-K filed by Forest on November 1, 1995.

<F1> Reflects the acquisition of an exclusive product license for $20
     million and the acquisition of approximately 22% of the total common
     shares outstanding of Biovail Corporation International (BCI) for
     $75.6 million.  This investment will be accounted for under the equity
     method of accounting.  The amount of the investment exceeds the
     Company's share of BCI's underlying book value by approximately $68.7
     million and that amount will be accounted for as goodwill.  The
     goodwill and the above mentioned product license will be amortized,
     using the straight-line method, over 25 years (management's estimate
     of the remaining useful lives of the respective assets.)  The
     amortization method and period is consistent with prior acquisitions
     by the Company.
