Apple’s latest mobile operating system—iOS8—will launch today, albeit without its touted HealthKit, according to Forbes‘s Zina Moukheiber.

WebMD updated its Healthy Target app Wednesday so it “connects seamlessly with Apple’s HealthKit,” the health-tracking tool kit introduced earlier this year. Updates include a redesigned weekly review that allows users to track progress across selected health goals, the ability to monitor their blood pressure and video tutorials that walk users through the app. MM&M is tracking this story.

Dublin’s Endo International plc has offered to buy Auxilium Pharmaceuticals for $28.10 per share, or a 40% premium over Auxilium’s average closing price for the month. Bloomberg tallies the total offer to be $2.2 billion. Endo was a US company until it changed its tax address to Dublin through a small-company acquisition last year. Auxilium also started the process of inverting this year when it agreed to buy QLT of Canada, and if Wednesday’s proposal is accepted, the deal would block the smaller firm’s attempts to redomicile, in addition to enlarging Endo’s footprint to include Auxilium’s Pennsylvania properties.
