Pacira Biosciences signed the agreement for the acquisition Oct. 11. Flexion’s lead product, Zilretta, is used for osteoarthritic knee pain. 

“Zilretta is a highly complementary commercial asset that allows us to provide physicians with another tool in their pain management armamentarium to tackle osteoarthritis earlier in the patient journey as we continue to redefine the role of opioids as a last resort rescue medication,” David Stack, Pacira’s CEO, said in the release. 

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
