Insights
Evoke Pharma's expanded pharmacy network through Omnicell and Brentwood partnerships significantly increases GIMOTI's market reach to major GI practices.
Evoke Pharma's strategic expansion of GIMOTI's distribution network represents a significant commercial advancement for their flagship product. By partnering with Omnicell, Evoke gains critical access to specialty pharmacies utilized by large gastroenterology organizations like Gastro Health, which maintains 150 locations across 7 states. This integration directly addresses a key challenge in specialty pharmaceuticals - aligning with the existing pharmacy infrastructure that physicians already trust and utilize.
The additional agreement with Brentwood Pharmacy creates a pathway to OneGI's network of approximately 200 gastroenterologists across multiple states. Together, these partnerships are positioned to nearly double GIMOTI's specialty pharmacy network, dramatically expanding the product's footprint within the gastroenterology specialty.
What makes this particularly valuable is that GIMOTI remains the only FDA-approved nasal spray for diabetic gastroparesis, giving it a unique clinical position. By reducing access barriers through these pharmacy relationships, Evoke is addressing a fundamental commercialization challenge in specialty pharmaceuticals - ensuring that innovative medications can efficiently reach the physicians who prescribe them and the patients who need them.
These distribution expansions represent execution on Evoke's publicly communicated commercial strategy, potentially accelerating GIMOTI's adoption curve by removing logistical obstacles that often impede specialty medication uptake and enhancing patient access to this novel delivery system for metoclopramide.
Separately Secures Access to OneGI Through Brentwood Pharmacy Agreement
Gimoti Specialty Pharmacy Network to Almost Double with Additional Relationships
SOLANA BEACH, Calif. and CHICAGO, Aug. 26, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Evoke Pharma, Inc. (NASDAQ: EVOK), a specialty pharmaceutical company focused on developing treatments for gastrointestinal (GI) diseases, with a particular emphasis on GIMOTI® (metoclopramide) nasal spray, together with EVERSANA, a leading provider of global commercial services to the life sciences industry, today announced the addition of Omnicell (NASDAQ: OMCL), a leader in medication management and fulfillment. This relationship is expected to expand patient access to GIMOTI, the only FDA-approved nasal spray for adults with acute and recurrent diabetic gastroparesis specifically, into large gastroenterology organizations.
As part of Evoke’s strategy to broaden GIMOTI’s reach through key pharmacy partnerships, the addition of Omnicell is meant to ensure better alignment with specialty pharmacies used by large gastroenterology group practices, like Gastro Health, which has a presence in 7 states and 150 locations. Omnicell manages a collection of these targeted pharmacies that specialize in GI products that are affiliated with large gastrointestinal physician organizations. This relationship is expected to almost double the number of specialty pharmacies available to access Gimoti.
“Adding Omnicell as a pharmacy manager is a direct reflection of the strategy we’ve shared publicly � to improve patient access by aligning with the specialty pharmacies GI physicians trust and use every day,� said Matt D’Onofrio, Chief Executive Officer of Evoke Pharma. “With support from EVERSANA and integration with Omnicell, we’re working to remove barriers for providers and help patients get the care they need faster.�
“Large GI practices are structured for scale and efficiency, and many have long-standing relationships with preferred specialty pharmacies,� said Chris Quesenberry, Chief Commercial Officer at Evoke Pharma. “Omnicell is an organization that understands the complexities of specialty care and offers turnkey solutions intended to optimize provider and patient experience. It’s another major step forward in making GIMOTI accessible in the real-world environments where patients are being treated.�
In a separate agreement, Evoke has also accessed Brentwood Pharmacy via a partnership agreement via Eversana. Brentwood is the specialty pharmacy affiliated with OneGI, another large gastroenterology network located in Tennessee, Kentucky, Ohio, Mississippi and other surrounding states. OneGI manages approximately 200 gastroenterologists and specialized physician assistants located at over 30 offices. This expansion further enables rapid delivery of GIMOTI and expands access to additional insurance plans for patients.
About Evoke Pharma, Inc.
Evoke is a specialty pharmaceutical company focused primarily on the development of drugs to treat GI disorders and diseases. The company developed, commercialized and markets GIMOTI, a nasal spray formulation of metoclopramide, for the relief of symptoms associated with acute and recurrent diabetic gastroparesis in adults.
Diabetic gastroparesis is a GI disorder affecting millions of patients worldwide, in which the stomach takes too long to empty its contents resulting in serious GI symptoms as well as other systemic complications. The gastric delay caused by gastroparesis can compromise absorption of orally administered medications. Prior to FDA approval to commercially market GIMOTI, metoclopramide was only available in oral and injectable formulations and remains the only drug currently approved in the United States to treat gastroparesis.

About Gimoti® (metoclopramide) nasal spray
GIMOTI is indicated for the relief of symptoms in adults with acute and recurrent diabetic gastroparesis. Important Safety Information:
WARNING: TARDIVE DYSKINESIA
- Metoclopramide can cause tardive dyskinesia (TD), a serious movement disorder that is often irreversible. The risk of developing TD increases with duration of treatment and total cumulative dosage.
- Discontinue GIMOTI in patients who develop signs or symptoms of TD. In some patients, symptoms may lessen or resolve after metoclopramide is stopped.
- Avoid treatment with metoclopramide (all dosage forms and routes of administration) for longer than 12 weeks because of the increased risk of developing TD with longer-term use.
GIMOTI is not recommended for use in:
- Pediatric patients due to the risk of developing tardive dyskinesia (TD) and other extrapyramidal symptoms as well as the risk of methemoglobinemia in neonates.
- Moderate or severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh B or C), moderate or severe renal impairment (creatinine clearance less than 60 mL/minute), and patients concurrently using strong CYP2D6 inhibitors due to the risk of increased drug exposure and adverse reactions.
GIMOTI is contraindicated:
- In patients with a history of tardive dyskinesia (TD) or a dystonic reaction to metoclopramide.
- When stimulation of gastrointestinal motility might be dangerous (e.g., in the presence of gastrointestinal hemorrhage mechanical obstruction, or perforation).
- In patients with pheochromocytoma or other catecholamine-releasing paragangliomas. Metoclopramide may cause a hypertensive/pheochromocytoma crisis, probably due to release of catecholamines from the tumor.
- In patients with epilepsy. Metoclopramide may increase the frequency and severity of seizures.
- In patients with hypersensitivity to metoclopramide. Reactions have included laryngeal and glossal angioedema and bronchospasm.
Potential adverse reactions associated with metoclopramide include: Tardive dyskinesia (TD), other extrapyramidal effects (EPS), parkinsonism symptoms, motor restlessness, neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS), depression, suicidal ideation and suicide, hypertension, fluid retention, hyperprolactinemia, effects on the ability to drive and operate machinery. Most common adverse reactions (�
