FDA approves Eisai Banzel oral suspension, 40mg/ml

Banzel has been approved for the adjunctive treatment of seizures linked with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS) in children 4 years and older and adults.

Eisai claims that its Banzel oral suspension is bioequivalent to currently marketed Banzel tablet formulation on a milligram per milligram basis.

The company said that it will launch the product in late March as a prescription drug.
