™
Targeting continued commercial execution through the end of 2026 by expanding payer coverage, broadening product access, and increasing institutional adoption within the approximately $143 million U.S. naloxone market based on annual sales, which represents annual demand of roughly 9.8 million units
COMMACK, NY, Aug. 12, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SCIENTURE HOLDINGS, INC.
(NASDAQ: SCNX) (“Scienture”), a holding company for existing and planned pharmaceutical operating companies focused on providing enhanced value to patients, physicians and caregivers through the development, commercialization, and distribution of novel specialty products that address unmet market needs, today announced the commercial launch of REZENOPY™ (naloxone hydrochloride) Nasal Spray 10 mg, including the fulfillment of its first purchase orders to U.S. pharmaceutical wholesalers. The milestone represents another important step in Scienture’s commercial growth strategy as the Company expands its marketed product portfolio and begins nationwide distribution of its second FDA-approved commercial product.
REZENOPY™ is the highest-dose FDA-approved naloxone hydrochloride nasal spray available in the United States, delivering 10 mg of naloxone hydrochloride in a single-use nasal spray device for the emergency treatment of known or suspected opioid overdose. Built on the proven naloxone molecule and a familiar nasal spray delivery platform, REZENOPY™ is designed to provide an important treatment option for overdoses involving highly potent synthetic opioids. According to IQVIA data (MAT June 2026), the U.S. naloxone market generated approximately $143 million in annual sales across 9.8 million units, highlighting a substantial commercial opportunity for REZENOPY™.
To support the launch, Scienture has deployed a dedicated national sales team focused on driving adoption across hospitals, emergency medical services (EMS), rehabilitation centers, pharmacies, public health agencies, and other key healthcare providers. REZENOPY™ is further supported by recently announced commercial payer coverage representing the potential to reach more than 100 million covered lives, as well as Group Purchasing Organization (GPO) agreements providing commercial access to more than 5,000 healthcare facilities, representing the potential to penetrate more than 60% of the U.S. institutional naloxone market.
“The commercial launch of REZENOPY™ represents another important milestone in our strategy to build a diversified portfolio of differentiated specialty pharmaceutical products,” said Shankar Hariharan, Executive Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer of Scienture. “Over the past year, we have focused on building the infrastructure required to support a successful launch, from manufacturing and supply chain readiness to distribution, market access, and commercial execution. As REZENOPY™ begins reaching customers nationwide, our focus is on driving adoption, expanding our commercial footprint, and establishing the product as another meaningful contributor to the Company’s long-term focus on revenue growth.”
“The launch of REZENOPY™ represents an important step in the continued expansion of our commercial portfolio,” said Narasimhan Mani, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer of Scienture. “As our second FDA-approved commercial product, REZENOPY™ expands our portfolio of revenue-generating assets and leverages the commercial infrastructure we have established to support future growth. We believe REZENOPY’s position as the highest-dose FDA-approved naloxone hydrochloride nasal spray, combined with broad institutional purchasing access, provide a strong foundation for market adoption. As we look to the balance of 2026, we remain focused on expanding market access catering to institutional utilization, in an attempt to maximize the product’s commercial potential.”
As previously disclosed, Scienture, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Scienture Holdings, Inc., entered into a definitive agreement with Summit Biosciences Inc. (a Kindeva subsidiary) in March 2025, for the exclusive U.S. commercialization rights to REZENOPY™ (naloxone hydrochloride) Nasal Spray 10 mg, which received FDA approval on April 19, 2024.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
-
Administration: REZENOPY™ nasal spray is for intranasal use only. Seek emergency medical care immediately after use. Administer a single spray into one nostril. If the patient does not respond within 2 to 3 minutes or responds and then relapses into respiratory depression, an additional dose may be given into the other nostril with a new device. Do not administer more than 2 sprays per day. Additional supportive and/or resuscitative measures may be helpful while awaiting emergency medical assistance.
-
Contraindications: REZENOPY™ nasal spray is contraindicated in patients known to be hypersensitive to naloxone hydrochloride or to any of the other ingredients.
-
Warnings and Precautions:
-
Risk of Recurrent Respiratory and CNS Depression: Due to the duration of action of naloxone relative to the opioid, keep the patient under continued surveillance and administer additional doses as necessary while awaiting emergency medical assistance.
-
Risk of Limited Efficacy with Partial Agonists or Mixed Agonists/Antagonists: Reversal of respiratory depression caused by partial agonists or mixed agonists/antagonists, such as buprenorphine and pentazocine, may be incomplete. Larger or repeat doses may be required.
-
Precipitation of Severe Opioid Withdrawal: Use in patients who are opioid-dependent may precipitate opioid withdrawal. In neonates, opioid withdrawal may be life-threatening if not recognized and properly treated. Monitor for the development of opioid withdrawal.
-
Risk of Cardiovascular Effects: Abrupt postoperative reversal of opioid depression may result in adverse cardiovascular effects. These events have primarily occurred in patients who had pre-existing cardiovascular disorders or received other drugs that may have similar adverse cardiovascular effects. Monitor these patients closely in an appropriate healthcare setting after use of naloxone hydrochloride.
-
Adverse Reactions: The following adverse reactions were observed in a REZENOPY™ nasal spray clinical study: upper abdominal pain, nasopharyngitis, and dysgeusia.
-
