VENUS REMEDIES BAGS APPROVAL TO MARKET MEROPENEM, ITS BLOCKBUSTER GENERIC DRUG, IN SPAIN
Venus Remedies Limited, a pharmaceutical titan specializing in research-based products, has recently procured marketing authorization in Spain for meropenem, a powerful broad-spectrum antibiotic. The move marks a notable stride in Venus Remedies’ international outreach.
The authorization, secured through the company’s subsidiary Venus Pharma GmbH, covers 500mg, 1g, and 2g injections. This comes as good news for healthcare professionals who rely on meropenem in intensive care units, particularly when treating life-threatening infections.
Meropenem has been a game-changer for Venus Remedies, accounting for an impressive 40% of the company’s total sales. It is a carbapenem class antibiotic used as a final treatment option for critically ill patients.
The Spanish market for meropenem is valued at around $6.34 million. With the scheduled product launch in December, Venus Remedies aims to acquire 10% of this market share. This recent development showcases the company’s commitment to excellence in pharmaceutical manufacturing and its aspiration for further expansion in Europe.
The company’s global footprint is already extensive. Venus Remedies has obtained over 120 marketing authorizations for meropenem from countries including the UK, France, Italy, Germany, Australia, UAE, South Africa, and several others.
The Executive Director of Venus Remedies, Akshansh Chaudhary, discussed the potential impact of this marketing authorization. He said, “As we anticipate more marketing approvals for meropenem across Europe, Venus Pharma GmbH is poised for a remarkable increase in turnover in the coming quarters.”
Moreover, he revealed that the company is actively participating in discussions for additional strategic partnerships with multinational companies in regulated markets.
It’s worth noting that Venus Remedies has the infrastructure to sustain substantial growth. Their facilities can manufacture 24 million units of meropenem annually on a single-shift basis. Currently, only 60% of this capacity is being utilized, providing ample room for expansion.
The marketing authorization of meropenem in Spain is an essential step for Venus Remedies in its journey to have a far-reaching impact on global healthcare. By consistently focusing on high-quality manufacturing and forging new partnerships, the company is setting itself up for continued success and leadership in the pharmaceutical industry.
