UCB announces NAYZILAM® (midazolam) nasal spray now approved by FDA to treat intermittent, stereotypic episodes of frequent seizure activity in people living with epilepsy in the U.S.
NAYZILAM® (midazolam) nasal spray* is a nasally administered benzodiazepine indicated for the acute treatment of intermittent, stereotypic episodes of frequent seizure activity (i.e., seizure clusters, acute repetitive seizures) that are distinct from a patient’s usual seizure pattern in patients with epilepsy 12 years of age and older.
NAYZILAM allows for administration by a non-healthcare professional in patients actively seizing when and where a seizure cluster occurs.
Approval of NAYZILAM adds to UCB’s already existing anti-epilepsy drug portfolio, reinforcing the company’s position as a global leader in epilepsy.
