Anaphylaxis is a serious systemic hypersensitivity reaction. Aquestive is developing AQST-109, a sublingual film that, if approved by the FDA, will allow patients to simply place a dissolvable strip, approximately the size and weight of a postage stamp, under the tongue to provide rapid delivery of epinephrine when it is needed.
PharmFilm® is a versatile, high-performance drug delivery technology that can be uniquely tailored to achieve a desired product profile with optimized absorption, bioavailability, and onset of action.
