What is Zynrelef?

Zynrelef is an FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) approved medication manufactured by Heron Therapeutics, Inc. Zynrelef has a novel mechanism of action. It is given as a single, needle-free application to the surgical site, providing patients with up to 72 hours of postoperative pain relief, and has been proven to reduce, the need for opioids after surgery. It is used in adults for soft tissue or periarticular instillation to produce postsurgical analgesia after bunionectomy, open inguinal herniorrhaphy, and total knee arthroplasty.

Zynrelef is the first and only extended-release dual-acting local anesthetic (DALA) with FDA approval. It combines bupivacaine with a low dose of meloxicam, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), for a synergistic analgesic effect. Safety and efficacy have not been established in highly vascular surgeries, such as intrathoracic, large multilevel spinal, and head and neck procedures.

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs cause an increased risk of serious cardiovascular thrombotic events, including myocardial infarction and stroke, which can be fatal. This risk may occur early in treatment and may increase with the duration of use. NSAIDs also cause an increased risk of serious gastrointestinal adverse events including bleeding, ulceration, and perforation of the stomach or intestines, which can be fatal. These events can occur at any time during use and without warning symptoms. Elderly patients and patients with a prior history of peptic ulcer disease and/or GI bleeding are at greater risk for serious GI events.

What doses of Zynrelef are available?

Zynrelef is available as an extended-release solution, in the following dosage strengths as single-dose glass vials: 400 mg bupivacaine and 12 mg meloxicam, 300 mg bupivacaine and 9 mg meloxicam, 200 mg bupivacaine and 6 mg meloxicam, 60 mg bupivacaine and 1.8 mg meloxicam.

Please see the full prescribing information for the complete boxed warning and always speak with your healthcare provider about any changes to your dose so they can monitor and evaluate your condition.
