ARS Pharmaceuticals Announces Presentation of Clinical Data Supporting neffy® (epinephrine nasal spray) for the Treatment of Allergic Reactions (Type I) including Anaphylaxis
SAN DIEGO, Nov. 09, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ARS Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: SPRY), a biopharmaceutical company dedicated to empowering at-risk patients and caregivers to better protect patients from severe allergic reactions that could lead to anaphylaxis, today announced that clinical data supporting neffy (epinephrine nasal spray) will be presented during the 2023 American College of Allergy Asthma and Immunology (ACAAI) Annual Scientific Meeting. The meeting is being held November 9-13, 2023, in Anaheim, California.
- Notably, data demonstrate that the pharmacokinetics of neffy are independent of BMI or body weight.
- Unlike injection products where exposures decreased with varying BMI or body weight, neffy could be a potentially effective epinephrine product in these patients.
- “Severe allergic reactions can be life-threatening, and today’s standard of care is needle-bearing injectable devices associated with numerous administration challenges.
- neffy 2.0 mg is expected to be a safe and effective option for the treatment of type I allergic reactions (including anaphylaxis) in patients experiencing upper respiratory tract infections.
