"The launches of Mellozzan^® in Denmark and Norway are of great importance as milestones in our ambition to reach patients outside of Sweden. In the Nordics, Europe and by extension all over the world", says EQL's CEO Axel Schörling. "We have seen the positive effects of the treatment on children with ADHD and sleep difficulties in Sweden where the use of melatonin, Mellozzan's effective substance, is today standard. We believe that the same treatment should be available to all children in the same situation regardless of geography."

In addition to the countries covered by Medice, licensees for Mellozzan^® are in various stages of registration in France, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, Turkey and Kazakhstan. In addition, EQL has recently entered into a global license agreement with Adalvo for Mellozzan^®.

About Mellozzan^®

Mellozzan^® contains the sleep hormone melatonin and is indicated for children who have ADHD and suffer from sleep difficulties, where so-called sleep hygiene measures have not helped. Mellozzan^® is also indicated for the short-term treatment of jet lag in adults.
