flag The FDA has approved Amphastar Pharmaceuticals’ generic teriparatide injection, a prefilled pen formulation for treating high-risk osteoporosis in postmenopausal women, men with primary or hypogonadal osteoporosis, and those with glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis. flag The drug, bioequivalent to Eli Lilly’s FORTEO®, is manufactured in the U.S. and will launch by year-end, offering a lower-cost, user-friendly option. flag With U.S. teriparatide sales at $585 million over the past year, Amphastar’s entry supports domestic supply resilience. flag The company also has multiple ANDAs and biosimilars in development targeting markets exceeding $7 billion, along with novel injectable and intranasal therapies in progress.
