Ladies and Gentlemen:

You have requested our opinion with respect to certain matters in connection
with the filing by AMYLIN PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. (the "Company") of a 
Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the "Abbreviated Registration Statement"), 
with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the proposed
issuance and sale of up to 400,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock (the
"Shares") as described in the Abbreviated Registration Statement. The Shares
are to be purchased by certain institutional and individual investors together
with the shares registered pursuant to Registration Statement No. 333-58831,
which was declared effective earlier today (the "Initial Registration
Statement").

In connection with this opinion, we have examined the Initial Registration
Statement, the Abbreviated Registration Statement and related Prospectus, your
Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws, as amended, and such other documents,
records, certificates, memoranda and other instruments as we deem necessary as
a basis for this opinion. We have assumed the genuineness and authenticity of 
all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to originals of all
documents submitted to us as copies thereof and the due execution and delivery
of all documents where due execution and delivery are a prerequisite to the
effectiveness thereof.

On the basis of the foregoing, and in reliance thereon, we are of the opinion
that the Shares, when sold and issued in accordance with the Initial 
Registration Statement, the Abbreviated Registration Statement and related 
Prospectus, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

We consent to the reference to our firm under the caption "Legal Matters" in
the Prospectus included in the Initial Registration Statement and to the filing
of this opinion as an exhibit to the Abbreviated Registration Statement.

Sincerely,

Cooley Godward LLP
