AcuCort receives renewed marketing authorisation for Zeqmelit® in Norway

The pharmaceutical company AcuCort has received a renewed marketing authorisation for its medicinal product Zeqmelit® from the Norwegian Medical Products Agency (Direktoratet for medisinske produkter), Norway’s equivalent of the Swedish Medical Products Agency. The decision grants approval without a time limitation.

AcuCort was first granted a marketing authorisation for Zeqmelit® in Norway in 2022. That approval was time-limited, which is standard for new medicines. Following an application for renewal, the Norwegian Medical Products Agency has now granted an extended marketing authorisation for the Norwegian market, this time without a time restriction.
