ZYNRELEF is the first and only modified-release local anesthetic to be classified by the FDA as an extended-release product because ZYNRELEF demonstrated in Phase 3 studies significantly reduced pain and significantly increased proportion of patients requiring no opioids through the first 72 hours following surgery compared to bupivacaine solution, the current standard-of-care local anesthetic for postoperative pain control.</font></p><p style="margin-left:1.107%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;margin-right:1.111%;text-align:left;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-kerning:none;min-width:fit-content;">ZYNRELEF was initially approved by the FDA in May 2021, and we commenced commercial sales in the U.S. in July 2021. In each of December 2021 and January 2024, the FDA approved an expansion of ZYNRELEF's indication. ZYNRELEF is approved for use in adults for postsurgical analgesia for up to 72 hours after soft tissue and orthopedic surgical procedures including foot and ankle, and other orthopedic surgical procedures in which direct exposure to articular cartilage is avoided. In September 2024, the FDA approved the prior approval supplement (&#x201c;PAS&#x201d;) application for ZYNRELEF Vial Access Needle (&#x201c;VAN&#x201d;), which is replacing the current vented vial spike.</font></p><p style="margin-left:1.107%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;margin-right:1.111%;text-align:left;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-kerning:none;min-width:fit-content;">In March 2022, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (&#x201c;CMS&#x201d;) approved a 3-year transitional pass-through status of ZYNRELEF, which became effective on April 1, 2022, for separate reimbursement outside of the surgical bundle payment in the Hospital Outpatient Department (&#x201c;HOPD&#x201d;) setting of care. In addition, in December 2022, H.R. 2617, the omnibus spending bill was approved by Congress, which includes the Non-Opioids Prevent Addiction in the Nation (NOPAIN) Act which directs CMS to provide separate Medicare reimbursement for non-opioid treatments that are used to manage pain during surgeries conducted in hospital outpatient departments or in ambulatory surgical centers. To qualify, the non-opioid treatment must demonstrate the ability to replace, reduce, or avoid intraoperative or postoperative opioid use or the quantity of opioids prescribed in a clinical trial or through data published in a peer-reviewed journal. The hospital outpatient prospective payment system and ambulatory surgical center proposed rule for calendar year 2025 includes ZYNRELEF as a qualifying non-opioid requiring CMS to provide separate Medicare reimbursement in both the hospital outpatient department and ambulatory surgical center settings from January 1, 2025, through December 31, 2027.</font></p></div></div></div>

CINVANTI is the first IV formulation to directly deliver aprepitant, the active ingredient in EMEND&#174; capsules. Aprepitant (including its prodrug, fosaprepitant) is a single-agent NK1 receptor antagonist to significantly reduce nausea and vomiting in both the acute phase (0&#x2013;24 hours after chemotherapy) and the delayed phase (24&#x2013;120 hours after chemotherapy). CINVANTI is the first and only IV formulation of an NK1 receptor antagonist indicated for the prevention of acute and delayed nausea and vomiting associated with Highly Emetogenic Cancer (&#x201c;HEC&#x201d;) and nausea and vomiting associated with Moderately Emetogenic Cancer (&#x201c;MEC&#x201d;) that is free of synthetic surfactants, including polysorbate 80.</font></p><p style="margin-left:1.067%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;margin-right:1.111%;text-align:left;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-kerning:none;min-width:fit-content;">CINVANTI, in combination with other antiemetic agents, is indicated in adults for the prevention of acute and delayed nausea and vomiting associated with initial and repeat courses of HEC including high-dose cisplatin as a single-dose regimen, delayed nausea and vomiting associated with initial and repeat courses of MEC as a single-dose regimen, and nausea and vomiting associated with initial and repeat courses of MEC as a 3-day regimen.</font></p><p style="margin-left:1.067%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;margin-right:1.111%;text-align:left;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-kerning:none;min-width:fit-content;">NK1 receptor antagonists are typically used in combination with 5-hydroxytryptamine (&#x201c;5-HT3&#x201d;) receptor antagonists. The only other injectable NK1 receptor antagonist currently approved in the U.S. for both acute and delayed chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting (&#x201c;CINV&#x201d;), EMEND&#174; IV (fosaprepitant), contains polysorbate 80, a synthetic surfactant, which has been linked to hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, and infusion site reactions. The CINVANTI formulation does not contain polysorbate 80 or any other synthetic surfactant. Our CINVANTI data has demonstrated the bioequivalence of CINVANTI to EMEND IV, supporting its efficacy for the prevention of both acute and delayed nausea and vomiting associated with HEC and nausea and vomiting associated with MEC. Results also showed CINVANTI was better tolerated in healthy volunteers than EMEND IV, with significantly fewer adverse events reported with CINVANTI.</font></p><p style="margin-left:1.067%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;margin-right:1.111%;text-align:left;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-kerning:none;min-width:fit-content;">CINVANTI was approved by the FDA in November 2017, and we commenced commercial sales in the U.S. in January 2018.</font></p><p style="margin-left:1.067%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;margin-right:1.111%;text-align:left;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-weight:bold;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-kerning:none;min-width:fit-content;">SUSTOL</font></p><p style="margin-left:1.067%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;margin-right:1.111%;text-align:left;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-kerning:none;min-width:fit-content;">SUSTOL is the first extended-release 5-HT3 receptor antagonist approved for the prevention of acute and delayed nausea and vomiting associated with both MEC and anthracycline and cyclophosphamide (&#x201c;AC&#x201d;) combination chemotherapy regimens.

In addition, they may have substantially more experience in effecting strategic combinations, in-licensing technology, developing drugs, obtaining regulatory approvals and manufacturing and marketing products. We cannot give any assurances that we can compete effectively with these other biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies. Our Products compete in highly competitive markets. Our potential competitors in these markets may succeed in developing products that could render our Products obsolete or noncompetitive.</font></p><p style="margin-left:1.107%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;margin-right:1.111%;text-align:left;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-kerning:none;min-width:fit-content;">ZYNRELEF competes in the postoperative pain management market with MARCAINETM (bupivacaine hydrochloride injection, solution, marketed by Pfizer Inc.) and generic forms of bupivacaine; NAROPIN&#174; (ropivacaine, marketed by Fresenius Kabi USA, LLC) and generic forms of ropivacaine; EXPAREL&#174; (bupivacaine liposome injectable suspension, marketed by Pacira BioSciences, Inc.); XARACOLL&#174; (bupivacaine HCl implant, marketed by Innocoll Pharmaceuticals Limited); POSIMIR&#174; (owned by Durect Corporation and to be marketed in the U.S. by Innocoll Pharmaceuticals Limited); ANJESO&#174; (meloxicam injection, marketed by Baudax Bio, Inc.); OFIRMEV&#174; (acetaminophen injection, marketed by Mallinckrodt Pharmaceuticals); SEGLENTIS&#174; (celecoxib and tramadol hydrochloride, marketed by Kowa Pharmaceuticals America, Inc. in the U.S.); generic forms of IV acetaminophen; and potentially other products in development for postoperative pain management that reach the U.S. market.</font></p><p style="margin-left:1.067%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;margin-right:1.111%;text-align:left;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-kerning:none;min-width:fit-content;">APONVIE competes in the PONV prevention market with generic ondansetron, the current standard of care, generic aprepitant, and BARHEMSYS&#174; (amisulpride, marketed by Eagle Pharmaceuticals, Inc.); TAK-951 (a</font><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-kerning:none;min-width:fit-content;"> </font></p></div></div></div>

An interruption in the supply of a key material could significantly delay our research and development process or increase our expenses for commercialization or development of our Products. Specialized materials must often be manufactured for the first time for use in drug delivery technologies, or materials may be used in the technologies in a manner that is different from their customary commercial uses. The quality of materials can be critical to the performance of a drug delivery technology, so a reliable source that provides a consistent supply of materials is important.

In such an event, the market price of our Common Stock could decline and you may lose all or part of your investment.

The shares of Common Stock being offered for resale pursuant to this prospectus by the Selling Stockholders would represent approximately 18.2% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding as of September 3, 2025, after giving effect to 5,241,410 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Stock issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and 19,444,444 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all outstanding Notes issued pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement.</font></p><p style="font-size:10pt;margin-top:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:left;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-kerning:none;min-width:fit-content;">After the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part, is effective, and until such time that it is no longer effective, the registration statement will permit the resale of such shares of Common Stock. Given the substantial number of shares of Common Stock being registered pursuant to this prospectus, the Selling Stockholders thereunder will continue to offer the securities covered thereby for a significant period of time, the precise duration of which cannot be predicted.</font><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-kerning:none;min-width:fit-content;"> </font></p><p style="font-size:10pt;margin-top:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:left;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-kerning:none;min-width:fit-content;">Further, the sale of a substantial number of shares of our Common Stock, or the perception in the market of the potential for the sale of a large number of shares, in the public market following the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part could increase the volatility of the market price of the Common Stock or result in a significant decline in the public trading price of the Common Stock, which may continue for an extended period of time. Any adverse effect on the market price of our Common Stock may make it more difficult for you to sell your holdings at times and prices that you determine are appropriate. These factors could also make it more difficult for us to raise additional funds through future offerings of shares of our Common Stock or other securities.</font></p><p style="font-size:10pt;margin-top:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:left;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-weight:bold;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-style:italic;font-kerning:none;min-width:fit-content;">Certain existing securityholders purchased our securities at a price below the current trading price of such securities, and may experience a positive rate of return based on the current trading price.

While some of the Selling Stockholders may experience a positive rate of return based on the current trading price, public securityholders may not experience a similar rate of return on the securities they purchased due to differences in the purchase prices they paid and the trading price at the time of sale and may instead experience a negative rate of return on their investment.

and collectively, the &#x201c;Rights&#x201d;) for each share of Common Stock of the Company outstanding at the close of business on August 15, 2025. Each Right will entitle the registered holder, after the Rights become exercisable and until August 14, 2026 (or the earlier redemption, exchange or termination of the Rights), to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth of a share of our Series B Preferred Stock, at a price of $7.00 per one one-thousandth of a share of Series B Preferred Stock, subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments.</font></p><p style="font-size:10pt;margin-top:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:left;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-kerning:none;min-width:fit-content;">By adopting the Plan, the Board is seeking to protect our ability to carry forward its net operating losses (collectively, &#x201c;NOLs&#x201d;). For federal and state income tax purposes, we may &#x201c;carry forward&#x201d; NOLs in certain circumstances to offset current and future taxable income, which will reduce future federal and state income tax liability, subject to certain requirements and restrictions. If we were to experience an &#x201c;ownership change,&#x201d; as defined in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, our ability to utilize these NOLs to offset future taxable income could be significantly limited. Generally, an &#x201c;ownership change&#x201d; would occur if the percentage of our stock owned by one or more &#x201c;five percent stockholders&#x201d; increases by more than fifty percentage points over the lowest percentage of stock owned by such stockholders at any time during the prior three-year period.</font></p></div>
