Sucampo

Sucampo is now a part of Mallinckrodt.

On February 13, 2018, Mallinckrodt closed on our acquisition of Sucampo Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Full details are available in the press release found here. We welcome our new colleagues to Mallinckrodt.

Mallinckrodt is committed to the continued commercialization of AMITIZA® (lubiprostone) and to advancing its supplemental New Drug Application under review by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration assessing the drug’s safety and efficacy in children 6 to 17 years of age with pediatric functional constipation.

We are also committed to continued commercialization of Rescula® (unoprostone isopropyl) in Japan.

We are excited and equally committed to continuing Sucampo’s strong efforts to bring much-needed development therapies to patients suffering from rare diseases like Niemann-Pick Type C and Familial Adenomatous Polyposis.
