EQL Pharma AB ( (SE:EQL) ) has issued an update.

EQL Pharma’s key melatonin product Mellozzan has received marketing authorization in Italy, where it will be launched through licensing partner Italfarmaco, one of the country’s leading pharmaceutical groups. The Italian rollout, expected around the end of fiscal 2026/27 or early 2027/28, marks Mellozzan’s second greenfield market after Germany and is set to expand EQL’s European footprint and brand-building efforts in pediatric ADHD-related sleep disorders and adult jet lag.

Positive reception in Germany from doctors and patients gives EQL confidence that Mellozzan can gain traction in Italy as well, supported by Italfarmaco’s strong local sales and marketing infrastructure. The approval strengthens EQL’s strategy of leveraging partners to commercialize specialized generics in major European markets, potentially enhancing long-term prescription volumes and reinforcing its position in the niche sleep-disorder segment.
