Jan 19 (Reuters) - Caraco Pharmaceutical Laboratories Ltd. CPD.A said an appeals court upheld the ruling of a federal court that its generic version of painkiller Ultracet does not infringe upon Ortho-McNeil Pharmaceutical Inc.'s patent.

Caraco's Tramadol with Acetaminophen is the generic equivalent of Ortho-McNeil's Ultracet, the company said in a statement.
