2016Avanir started out as Lidak Pharmaceuticals, Inc. in 1988, developing research-based treatments to meet patient needs. Our firstpharmaceutical product was Abreva®, an over-the-counter cold sore treatment that was out-licensed to another company.
In 2015, Avanir became a subsidiary of Otsuka America, Inc., a holdingcompany owned by Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. This move providedthe support of a leading global pharmaceutical company while allowingour business to remain nimble and flexible.
Our quest to bring research-based treatments to patients led us to develop treatments for cardiovascular, autoimmune and infectious diseases. We also changed our name to Avanir Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
In October, we received an FDA approval for NUEDEXTA® (dextromethorphan hydrobromide) with a 20 / 10 mg dose strength.

In June, the European Commision approved NUEDEXTA®(dextromethorphan hydrobromide and quinidine sulfate) with a 20/10 mg and 30/10 mg dose strength. On July 2, we announced a development andcommercialization agreement with OptiNose™ AS for a new investigational product for the acute treatment of migraine.
We entered into a license agreement with Concert Pharmaceuticals,Inc. to develop and commercialize deuterium-modifieddextromethorphan for disorders of the central nervous system.
NUEDEXTA® is launched in the United States
We received FDA approval of ONZETRA® Xsail® (sumatriptan nasal powder) 11 mg pernosepiece in January and launched it in the United States market in May.
1999During this pivotal year, we began development of products containing dextromethorphan - a key ingredient in our CNS-focused approved product and many drugs under development.
