Scienture Launches Arbli, First FDA-Approved Ready-To-Use Liquid Losartan

SCIENTURE HOLDINGS, INC. NASDAQ: SCNX), a holding company for existing and planned pharmaceutical operating companies focused on providing enhanced value to patients, physicians and caregivers through developing, bringing to market, and distributing novel specialty products to satisfy unmet market needs, is pleased to announce the shipment of launch quantities of Arbli™ (losartan potassium) Oral Suspension, 10 mg/mL to its 3PL/Distribution Center for the intended commercial launch of the product. This shipment marks a major milestone accomplishment for Scienture, which has agreements in place for the distribution of the product through wholesalers and has received its first order for shipment in August 2025.

Arbli™ is meant for the treatment of hypertension in patients greater than 6 years old, for the reduction of risk of stroke in patients with hypertension and left ventricular hypertrophy and for the treatment of diabetic nephropathy in certain patients with type 2 diabetes. Arbli™ is the first and only FDA approved ready-to-use oral liquid losartan in the U.S. market.

Arbli™ is a novel proprietary formulation of losartan, a proven therapy for treating hypertension, which provides a tailored approach to patients that require or prefer an oral liquid option of losartan. Appropriate dosing is now easier, safe and effective, while providing the assurance of quality as an FDA-approved product. Arbli™ provides a safe and convenient option to patients requiring a liquid formulation and addresses the intrinsic risks associated with potential inconsistencies in the process of crushing tablets to extemporaneously compound losartan prescriptions. Arbli™ has two issued patents from the USPTO, which are also listed in the FDA Orangebook.

Losartan is classified as an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) for treating hypertension and is one of the highest prescribed molecules for this indication. Current products in the market containing losartan are available only as oral solids, which can be further compounded to a liquid formulation. Arbli™ is the first liquid formulation of losartan on the market that does not require compounding and has reduced dosing volume and long-term shelf life at room temperature storage. IQVIA data (March 2025) indicates a total annual sales of approximately $276 million and a prescription volume of 69 million (TRx) for losartan in the US market. The global market for losartan potassium was approximately $1.5 billion in sales in 2024.
