About the Company

Pacira BioSciences

Non-opioid pain management pharmaceuticals and devices

Pacira BioSciences focuses on non-opioid pain management and regenerative health. Its products include EXPAREL, a local analgesic that is a bupivacaine liposome injectable suspension given at surgery to provide extended pain relief at the surgical site, and iovera, a handheld device that uses cryoanalgesia to temporarily block pain signals from peripheral nerves. The company generates revenue by selling these products to hospitals, ambulatory surgery centers, and physicians in the United States. Unlike many pain-management players that rely on opioids or single offerings, Pacira combines a pharmaceutical product (EXPAREL) with a medical device (iovera) to address postsurgical pain and is expanding into new indications and geographic markets while developing additional pain-management and regenerative health solutions. Its goal is to broaden use of its current therapies and create new products to meet unmet needs in pain management and regenerative health.
