Quick check: what exactly are you looking for?
If you tell me what you mean by “api” (active ingredient vs application programming interface vs sourcing/manufacturers), I can narrow the answer. For example:
- Are you asking about “ubrogepant API” as a bulk chemical for manufacturing?
- Or are you looking for a technical “API” endpoint/integration related to a software system?
- Or do you want patents/exclusivity that impact API supply?
