What is SPEVIGO?
SPEVIGO 150 MG contains SPESOLIMAB : 150 MG. It is listed in the Health Canada Drug Product Database under DIN 02550296, held by BOEHRINGER INGELHEIM (CANADA) LTD LTEE, supplied as SOLUTION for SUBCUTANEOUS administration. Health Canada currently lists it as marketed, status dated 26-Mar-2026. 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 SPEVIGO used for?
Treatment of generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) in adults and pediatric patients 12 years of age and older and weighing at least 40 kg.
Authorized indication as written in the Health Canada product monograph. For healthcare professionals and licensed purchasers; this is not medical advice.
How much does Spesolimab cost around the world?
Spesolimab is listed on 7 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. Greece publishes a producer price (ex-factory); Iceland publishes a max wholesale; Italy publishes a ex-factory (classe H). 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.
| Market | Price basis published there | Brands | Packs listed | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| United Arab Emirates | public | 2 | 2 | AED███.██ |
| Greece | producer price (ex-factory) | 1 | 1 | EUR███.██ |
| Iceland | max wholesale | 1 | 1 | ISK███.██ |
| Italy | ex-factory (classe H) | 1 | 1 | EUR███.██ |
| Norway | max AUP (pharmacy retail) | 1 | 1 | NOK███.██ |
| Romania | max producer price | 1 | 1 | RON███.██ |
| Saudi Arabia | public | 1 | 1 | SAR███.██ |
8 pack listings across 8 brand entries and 6 price bases, refreshed 07 Sep 2026. Ranges span every Spesolimab 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 Spesolimab 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.
Only one market authorization holder has a Canadian DIN containing Spesolimab — 2 DINs, of which 2 are currently marketed. There is no second Canadian source today, so a supply interruption on this holder has no domestic substitute at the same molecule.
| Market authorization holder | DINs | Marketed | Brand names | Position |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BOEHRINGER INGELHEIM (CANADA) LTD LTEE | 2 | 2 | SPEVIGO | 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 | 150 MG |
|---|---|
| Dosage form | SOLUTION |
| Route | SUBCUTANEOUS |
| Pack configuration (monograph) | SC: 150 mg/1 mL pre-filled syringe (pack of 2) or 300 mg/2 mL pre-filled syringe (pack of 1). IV: 450 mg/7.5 mL vial (pack of 2). |
| Storage | Not explicitly detailed in provided text snippet (refer to section 11 of full monograph). |
Before an order line is unambiguous Nexara needs the strength, the pack size and the presentation.

Health Canada record and identifiers
The regulatory facts straight from the Drug Product Database, plus every identifier form Nexara accepts on a purchase order. A DIN written without its leading zeros is the commonest reason an order line fails to match.

How is it administered?
Flare prevention (SC): 600 mg loading dose, then 300 mg every 4 weeks. Flare treatment (IV): 900 mg single dose; may repeat once after 1 week if symptoms persist.
Included because it drives pack selection and wastage. Consult the monograph.
Contraindications
Severe or life-threatening hypersensitivity or history of anaphylaxis to spesolimab or any ingredient in the formulation.
Warnings and precautions
Increased risk of infections (UTI, URTI). Evaluate for TB prior to treatment. Risk of hypersensitivity/anaphylaxis and infusion-related reactions. Avoid live vaccines.
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.
1 · Same molecule, other Canadian presentations
2 of 2 Canadian DINs for this molecule are currently marketed. Marketed products are listed first.

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.

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.

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.
