Cronus Pharma Launches Butorphic® (Butorphanol Tartrate) Sterile Injectable Solution

EAST BRUNSWICK, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cronus Pharma LLC, a fully integrated research, development, manufacturing, sales and marketing animal health pharmaceutical company, announces the launch of Butorphic® (Butorphanol Tartrate) Sterile Injectable Solution for immediate availability in the U.S. animal health market through national and regional distributors.

"Butorphic is a vital analgesic for managing equine colic pain and we are excited to grow our equine portfolio. Importantly, Butorphic marks our fifth product launch this year, expanding our portfolio to twenty-five products with several more planned for 2025 and beyond," said Vimal Kavuru, Chairman & CEO.

This launch enhances Cronus Pharma's robust sedative and anesthesia product portfolio which includes AnaSed® Equine (Xylazine) Injection, Cropamezole™ (Atipamezole) Injection, DexmedVet™ (Dexmedetomidine) Injection, DetomiSed™ (Detomidine) Injection, and Ketamine Injection.

"Butorphic's launch reinforces our position among the animal health leaders in U.S. FDA ANADA approvals over the past several years, which is a testament to our team’s dedication to delivering high-quality, cost-effective pharmaceuticals to veterinarians and pet owners," said Edward Neugeboren, Chief Strategy Officer.

Butorphic is indicated for the relief of pain associated with colic and postpartum pain in adult horses and yearlings. Clinical studies demonstrate that butorphanol tartrate effectively alleviates abdominal pain caused by torsion, impaction, intussusception, spasmodic and tympanic colic, and postpartum pain. Approved by the FDA under ANADA #200-332, Butorphic provides the same efficacy and safety, and is a generic equivalent to the reference product, Torbugesic®. Available in 10 mg/mL concentrations in 20 mL and 50 mL multi-dose vials, our unique 20 mL vial offers veterinarians more flexible dosing options.
