Partnership for Pain Management

Leiters has announced a partnership with Avanos Medical, a manufacturer of medical devices, to achieve a preferred provider relationship to fill the ON-Q* Pain Relief System. In light of national drug shortages, many of Avanos’ acute and non-acute customers have requested assistance with filling the ON-Q* Pain Relief System; as such, Leiters will serve as a preferred fill service provider. The system provides a non-opioid alternative for post-operative pain management. As an elastomeric drug delivery system, it delivers local anesthetic directly to the surgical site either through a nerve block or a surgically placed catheter. It is indicated to reduce use of opioids and to provide better pain relief than opioids alone. Through this preferred relationship, Leiters offers ON-Q* Pain Relief System customers a proprietary pharmacy fill service that will be provided through two Leiters FDA-registered 503B outsourcing facilities located in San Jose, California, and Denver, Colorado.
