Long Grove Pharmaceuticals Launches Premix Norepinephrine

Norepinephrine in 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection will help meet critical supply reliability and patient safety needs

ROSEMONT, Ill., May 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- It is a New Day for Norepinephrine! Long Grove Pharmaceuticals now offers ready-to-use Norepinephrine in 0.9% Sodium Chloride in the 16 mg/250mL (64 mcg/mL) strength and anticipates the availability of the 4 mg/250 mL (16 mcg/mL) and 8 mg/250 mL (32 mcg/mL) strengths in early summer.

This ready-to-use premix has a 24-month shelf life at room temperature and is safe to use up to seven days after removal from the foil overwrap. A new source for Norepinephrine is a much needed addition to the fragile critical care supply chain. The convenience and safety of this manufactured premix formulation will help hospital pharmacies focus their limited resources on addressing unique and critical patient needs.

Over the last six months, we have met with many customers who have shared their ongoing challenges and have been very supportive of our efforts to bring a safe, convenient premix Norepinephrine to market," said Peter Karas, Chief Commercial Officer of Long Grove Pharmaceuticals.
