- WAKIX's approval in Japan extends its regulatory footprint to a further major market. Local post-approval obligations will follow.
- Viatris expects the Pacira BioSciences acquisition to close by the end of November. Quality, PV and market-access teams linked to either company should expect integration planning to follow completion.
