DESCRIPTION
| Endo Health Solutions Inc formerly Endo Pharmaceutical Holdings, was incorporated in the state of Delaware on November 18, 1997. The company operates as a specialty pharmaceutical company engaged in the research, development, sale and marketing of branded and generic prescription pharmaceuticals used to treat and manage pain. It has a portfolio of products that includes brand names such as Lidoderm®, Opana® ER, Voltaren® Gel, Percocet®, Frova®, Supprelin® LA, Vantas®, Valstar® and Fortesta®Gel. Lidoderm® (lidocaine patch 5%) was launched in September 1999. A topical patch product containing lidocaine, Lidoderm® was the first FDA-approved product for the relief of the pain associated with post-herpetic neuralgia, a condition thought to result after nerve fibers are damaged during a case of Herpes Zoster (commonly known as shingles). Opana® ER was launched during the second half of 2006 and had shown prescription growth since its launch until the 2012 supply disruption, which caused some patients to switch to other pain relief products. Opana® ER is indicated for the relief of moderate-to-severe pain in patients requiring continuous, around-the-clock opioid treatment for an extended period of time. It launched Voltaren® Gel in March 2008 upon closing of the license and supply agreement with Novartis AG and Novartis Consumer Health, Inc. Percocet® launched in 1976, Percocet® Tablets CII is approved for the treatment of moderate-to-moderately severe pain. The Company began shipping Frova® Tablets upon closing of the license agreement with Vernalis in mid-August 2004. Frova® is indicated for the acute treatment of migraine headaches in adults. Supprelin® LA was launched in the U.S. in June 2007. Supprelin® LA is a soft, flexible 12-month hydrogel implant based on its hydrogel polymer technology that delivers histrelin acetate, a gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist and is indicated for the treatment of central precocious puberty (CPP) in children. Vantas® was launched in the U.S. in November 2004. Vantas® is a soft, flexible 12-month hydrogel implant based on its hydrogel polymer technology that delivers histrelin acetate, a GnRH agonist and is indicated for the palliative treatment of advanced prostate cancer. The Company launched Valstar® in September 2009. Valstar® is a sterile solution for intravesical instillation of valrubicin, a chemotherapeutic anthracycline derivative. Fortesta® Gel is a patented two percent (2%) testosterone transdermal gel and is a treatment for men suffering from hypogonadism, also known as low testosterone (Low T). The precision-metered dose delivery system can be accurately customized and adjusted to meet individual patient needs with the appropriate dose. The Company markets its branded pharmaceutical products to physicians in pain management, neurology, surgery, anesthesiology, oncology and primary care. The Company sells products directly to a limited number of pharmacy chains and through a limited number of wholesale drug distributors who, in turn, supply products to pharmacies, hospitals, governmental agencies and physicians. The Company’s main competitors include Abbott Laboratories, Johnson & Johnson, Pfizer, Inc., Purdue Pharma, L.P., Allergan, Inc. and Watson Pharmaceuticals Inc. The Company is subject to various federal and state laws and regulations. |
