California, under Gov. Gavin Newsom, is partnering with Amneal Pharmaceuticals, a New Jersey-based company, to purchase a generic version of Narcan, a well-known form of naloxone used to save lives during opioid overdoses. The state will obtain the drug at a significantly reduced cost through its prescription drug label, CalRx. Amneal Pharmaceuticals will sell naloxone to California for $24 per pack, approximately 40% cheaper than the market rate. California plans to distribute the packs for free to first responders, universities, and community organizations as part of the Naloxone Distribution Project.
Amneal Pharmaceuticals agreed to pay more than $270 million to resolve claims it helped fuel the deadly US opioid epidemic. Amneal reached an agreement in principle to pay $92.5 million in cash and provide $180 million worth of naloxone nasal spray https://t.co/2mCiTYGazJ https://t.co/B75NzexGrh
