Global Epinephrine Autoinjector Market- Recent Developments
Business Development Activities by the Market Players
- On September 20, 2023, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration declined to approve an alternative to epinephrine autoinjectors such as EpiPens, telling the maker of a nasal spray that more study is required. ARS Pharma, a pharmaceutical company that produces the drug, announced that the U.S. FDA had asked for a study to be completed. This study is to evaluate the effects of multiple doses of their spray, known as neffy, in comparison to multiple doses of an epinephrine injection.
- On August 10, 2023, Illinois Senate Democrats announced that it has enacted US$ 60 price cap on epinephrine autoinjector two-packs. The cap comes amid an ongoing injector shortage and follows similar moves in other states.
- In November, 2021, Pfizer, an American multinational pharmaceutical and biotechnology corporation coordinated with U.S. FDA to extend the expiration dates of specific lots of EpiPen 0.3 mg Auto-Injectors and its authorized generic version after review of stability data. This announcement is based on a careful review of product stability data provided by Pfizer.
