  • GLOPERBA (colchicine oral solution) is the first and only liquid formulation of colchicine that offers precision dosing for at risk gout patients.
  • Scilex recently received FDA approval for an updated GLOPERBA label, which reflects dosing adjustments in various clinical situations. Unlike other colchicine formulations, GLOPERBA allows reduction of daily dose in patients with severe renal impairment (0.3 mg/day).
    • Data to be presented summarizes pharmacokinetic model derived dosing for at-risk moderate and severe chronic kidney disease patients who require lower precision dosing, not offered by other colchicine formulations of tablets and capsules currently available on the market.
