What is FYCOMPA?
FYCOMPA Strength contains Active ingredient(s) See footnote 8 : Strength PERAMPANEL : 6.0 MG. It is listed in the Health Canada Drug Product Database under DIN 02404532, held by EISAI LIMITED 6925 Century Ave, Suite 701 Mississauga Ontario Canada L5N 7K2, supplied as Tablet for Oral administration. Health Canada currently lists it as marketed, status dated 19-Jun-2013. Nexara Health is a licensed Canadian wholesale distributor (DEL 3-002896-A) and can source this product for hospitals, pharmacies and clinics. Availability and lead time are confirmed per order.
What is FYCOMPA used for?
FYCOMPA (perampanel) tablets are indicated as adjunctive therapy in the management of partial-onset seizures in patients 7 years of age and older who are not satisfactorily controlled with conventional therapy. It is also indicated as adjunctive therapy in the management of primary generalized tonic-clonic (PGTC) seizures in patients 12 years of age and older with epilepsy, who are not satisfactorily controlled with conventional therapy.
Authorized indication as written in the Health Canada product monograph. For healthcare professionals and licensed purchasers; this is not medical advice.
How much does Perampanel cost around the world?
Perampanel is listed on 16 of the national price registers Nexara ingests. Each country publishes on a different basis, so those figures are not comparable with one another — or with a Canadian wholesale price.
What a market publishes matters more than the number it publishes. Australia publishes a ex-manufacturer; Austria publishes a KVP (Kassenverkaufspreis); Bahrain publishes a retail (max). Comparing an ex-factory ceiling against a pharmacy public price tells you nothing about either, and comparing either against a Canadian landed cost tells you less.

| Spain | PVP con IVA (public price) | 24 | 24 | EUR███.██ |

159 pack listings across 91 brand entries and 15 price bases, refreshed 08 Sep 2026. Ranges span every Perampanel pack in that market, so a high figure is usually a larger pack rather than the same product.
Canada publishes no comparable public list price. For a delivered Canadian price on a licensed account, verify your licence — it takes about a minute.
Is there a generic Perampanel in Canada, and who makes it?
Every market authorization holder with a Canadian DIN for this molecule, and how many of their listings Health Canada currently shows as marketed.
3 holders have a Canadian DIN containing Perampanel, across 13 DINs, of which 12 are currently marketed. Marketed count is the number that matters: an approval that is not marketed cannot be bought.
| Market authorization holder | DINs | Marketed | Brand names | Position |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| TARO PHARMACEUTICALS INC | 6 | 6 | TARO-PERAMPANEL | Sourceable in Canada |
| EISAI LIMITED 6925 Century Ave, Suite 701 Mississauga Ontario Canada L5N 7K2 | 4 | 3 | FYCOMPA | Sourceable in Canada |
| EISAI LIMITED | 3 | 3 | FYCOMPA | Sourceable in Canada |
Health Canada’s Drug Product Database does not flag which listing is the originator and which are subsequent-entry products, so Nexara does not label them here. Interchangeability is determined provincially, not federally — confirm for your province before a formulary switch. Nexara can confirm which of these is actually obtainable, and on what lead time, per order.
How is it supplied and stored?
Pack configuration, storage class and the handling constraints that drive cold-chain planning. One DIN can cover more than one pack size, and the pack — not the DIN — is what gets priced, shipped and invoiced.
| Strength on the label | Strength |
|---|---|
| Dosage form | Tablet |
| Route | Oral |
| Pack configuration (monograph) | HDPE bottles of 30 and 90 tablets, and as blisters (PVC/aluminum) in packs of 7 tablets (for 2 mg, 4 mg, 6 mg, 8 mg, 10 mg, 12 mg) |
| Storage | null |
Before an order line is unambiguous Nexara needs the strength, the pack size and the presentation, because this listing covers more than one of them.

What can be used instead?
Alternatives on every axis a buyer actually considers — the same molecule in another presentation, the same class, an adjacent class, or a fixed-dose combination. Every row is led by the marketed DIN count, because that is what can be bought this week.

A molecule with zero marketed DINs cannot be sourced domestically, however many approvals it holds — if one of these sits on a formulary or in an older protocol, that is the line to check.

Not clinical advice. These tables describe what can be supplied in Canada, not what should be prescribed. Substitution within or across classes is a prescriber and pharmacist decision, and interchangeability is determined provincially.
What else is FYCOMPA called?
The same molecule, Perampanel, is registered under other names elsewhere. Buyers and prescribers searching from outside Canada — or working from a foreign prescription or tender document — often know it by one of these:
| Name | Script | Registered in |
|---|---|---|
| Posenva | Latin | Saudi Arabia |
Names are taken from national medicine registers and published price lists. A product registered abroad is not authorized for sale in Canada unless it holds its own DIN; import is possible only through the routes Health Canada permits.
How can I get it?
Nexara Health supplies this product to licensed Canadian buyers — pharmacies, hospitals, clinics, licensed distributors, and clinical trial sponsors or their CROs. We confirm stock, pack size, expiry and pricing at the time of quotation. If the product is on backorder or in shortage, we identify equivalent alternatives and import options where permitted.
Ordering questions
Who can buy this from Nexara?
Licensed entities only. Nexara holds Health Canada establishment licence DEL 3-002896-A and ships only to a licensed address. Patients and unlicensed buyers are routed to a partner pharmacy.
Is there a minimum order?
Yes, set per product line and per pack multiple rather than on the order total, so you are never asked to buy a part-pack. The minimum for this line is confirmed with your quote.
What is the lead time?
Confirmed per order at quotation, and it depends on current stock position and whether the product is in shortage.
Why is there no price on this page?
Nexara quotes a delivered Canadian price per order, against a verified licence. Foreign list prices are published on incompatible bases and are not a guide to what any buyer can obtain here, so this page shows which markets list the molecule and on what basis, and nothing more.
Can Nexara supply this for a clinical trial?
Yes — comparator and background-therapy supply, including sourcing from other markets where a Canadian pack will not satisfy the protocol. Clinical trial supply.
