(Nasdaq: COLL), a specialty pharmaceutical company committed to being the leader in responsible pain management today provided full-year 2019 guidance for Xtampza ER revenues, Nucynta Franchise revenues, and total operating expenses.
“With strong growth for Xtampza ER in 2018 and the addition of the Nucynta Franchise, Collegium built a solid foundation upon which to progress in the year ahead,” said Joe Ciaffoni, Chief Executive Officer. “Our 2019 revenue guidance reflects the anticipated impact of recently announced formulary wins for Xtampza ER as well as stabilization of the Nucynta franchise.”
