By: WE Staff | Friday, 22 March 2024

Viatris' women's healthcare business, which specialized in injectable and oral contraceptives, has been successfully acquired by Insud Pharma. October 2023 was the first month this transaction was announced.

In emerging nations especially, the field of women's healthcare and contraception offers a substantial and growing opportunity. By partnering with public health institutions, Viatris will provide oral contraceptives to international organizations, and Insud Pharma will be able to forge a strong foothold in these expanding markets.

Due to the additional manufacturing facilities in Sarigam and Ahmedabad included in this strategic acquisition, Insud Pharma's commercial presence in India is further reinforced. Exeltis India in Chennai and Chemo India Formulations in Hyderabad are two of Insud Pharma's current plant networks in India that are enhanced by the integration of these new facilities. The company's capabilities and resources in the region are improved by these sites, which together employ over 1,800 people.

As he stressed the importance of this deal, Insud Pharma CEO Lucas Sigman said it marks a significant turning point in the company's history. The ongoing dedication to women's health and how it fits with the goal of the Mundo Sano foundation, which is to enhance health outcomes in developing nations, were other points he brought up. When the seasoned group from the recently acquired sites in India was welcomed, Sigman expressed his delight.

The CEO of Xiromed, Rob Spina, expressed excitement about the Viatris deal's potential worldwide effects. He emphasized the importance of this contract for Xiromed U. S. as it fits with their strategic objective of becoming a top women's health company globally and increases their footprint in the women's health industry.
