EBS Emergent Biosolutions Inc

Emergent BioSolutions Inc. (NYSE: EBS) announced the introduction of a new NARCANDirect™ distribution center in Nevada to further demonstrate its commitment to broadening access to NARCAN® Nasal Spray nationwide. This new facility allows Emergent to further meet the increased demand for naloxone by now having coast-to-coast distribution mechanisms in place to continue to provide faster, more efficient delivery to public interest customers, as well as other purchasing entities.

NARCANDirect™ is an online portal that enables qualified direct purchasers, such as emergency medical services, law enforcement, fire departments, government agencies, schools/universities, and community-based naloxone distribution programs, to purchase and ship NARCAN® Nasal Spray directly.

“Fighting the opioid epidemic requires a multi-faceted, highly collaborative approach, and the needs of our public interest partners remain a top priority as they work diligently on the frontlines of this epidemic,” said Paul Williams, senior vice president, products head at Emergent. “As part of our continued commitment to respond to the ongoing epidemic, we are introducing this new NARCANDirect™ distribution enhancement that will further ensure our West Coast customers can access NARCAN® Nasal Spray and can continue to make a positive impact in their communities.”

Since the prescription launch of NARCAN® Nasal Spray in 2016, approximately 64 million doses have been distributed across the U.S. and Canada. In 2023, Emergent delivered approximately 11 million cartons (~22 million doses), and remains committed to ensuring broad access, awareness and strong supply to meet expected growing demand in 2024 to support distribution efforts across the country.
