THE new Hadlima (adalimumab) 40mg/0.4mL formulation will be listed on the PBS from 01 Oct.
Organon Australia has launched this high concentration, citrate-free formulation for treating chronic inflammatory conditions, including rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn's disease, and ulcerative colitis.
The updated biosimilar reduces the injection volume by 50% and eliminates citrate buffers, known to cause injection-site pain.
Additionally, it can be stored at room temperature for up to 31 days, offering improved convenience for patients.
Hadlima is available in autoinjector and pre-filled syringe formats.
