WOODCLIFF LAKE, N.J., Jan. 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Eagle Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (OTC:EGRX) (the "Company" or "Eagle") is pleased to announce the divestiture of the marketing authorization for Barhemsys (amisulpride) in the U.S. to LXO Group, Paris, France.

Barhemsys is used for the treatment of Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting (PONV) alone or with another antiemetic in patients with or without prior prophylaxis. Approved in February 2020 and launched in the U.S. in November 2020, Barhemsys is the only FDA-approved treatment for PONV, addressing a critical need in post-surgical care by offering a targeted, effective option to manage this common complication.

"This strategic divestiture reflects Eagle Pharmaceuticals commitment to streamlining its acute care business and maximizing value for our shareholders, while ensuring access to this important treatment for the millions of patients affected annually by PONV," stated Michael Graves, CEO of Eagle.

"The deployment of a direct hospital sales force around Barhemsys significantly enhances our US commercial capabilities and creates immediate synergies with our existing U.S. portfolio, with all products being distributed in the same distribution channel," said Jason Jones, Head of U.S. Operations at LXO Group.

Cash from the divestiture will be used for Eagle's ongoing business operations.
