The  Reporting  Person  hereby amends this Schedule 13D to include the following
information in Item 5.


ITEM 5.  INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

On March 1, 2000, the Voting Trust  terminated in accordance  with its terms and
Mr. Sperber  ceased to be the beneficial  owner of more than 5% of the Company's
outstanding Common Stock.

As of the date of this amendment to Schedule 13D, Mr. Sperber  beneficially owns
1,313,532  shares  of  Common  Stock,  or  approximately  4%  of  the  Company's
outstanding Common Stock. Of such shares, Mr. Sperber may be deemed to have sole
voting power over 1,313,532 shares of Common Stock,  sole dispositive power over
656,342 shares of Common Stock and shared  dispositive power over 657,190 shares
of Common Stock.

The 1,313,532 shares of Common Stock  beneficially  owned by Mr. Sperber consist
of:

        (a)    619,290  shares  for which Mr.  Sperber  either is the  direct or
               indirect  beneficial  owner  or holds in  trusts  for his  family
               members' benefit;
        (b)    651,475 shares issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock options
               that are held by Mr. Sperber and are currently exercisable;
        (c)    37,900  shares held in a joint  account  for Mr.  Sperber and his
               wife, Ellen Sperber; and
        (d)    4,867 shares  acquired by Mr. Sperber  pursuant to The Retirement
               Plan  of  Schein  Pharmaceutical,   Inc.  &  Affiliates  and  the
               Company's 1998 Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

Mr.  Sperber has not acquired or disposed of beneficial  ownership of any shares
of Common  Stock in the past 60 days other than upon the  vesting of options and
shares  acquired   periodically  pursuant  to  The  Retirement  Plan  of  Schein
Pharmaceutical, Inc. & Affiliates and the Company's 1998 Employee Stock Purchase
Plan.


SIGNATURE

        After  reasonable  inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I
certify that the information  set forth in this statement is true,  complete and
correct.
