Buprenorphine Patch

Buprenorphine Patch
Product Description

Amarin has developed a patch intended to be AB rated to Butrans®, but with the comparative advantages of having half of the drug content and also a reduced size (having less residual drug after 7 days of use). As the patch delivers the same amount of drug, this makes it more efficient.

On the marketing perspective, the main advantage is that having a patch with different drug load makes it not substitutable at pharmacy level under the narcotic law of certain countries (such as Germany). Considering that the first generation of Buprenorphine patches doesn´t have any innovative differentiation, suppliers are competing on a commodity business.

As a consequence of that, our bioequivalent formulation (Bup 2.0) would offer the advantage of building a high value niche.
