Mumbai-based Glenmark Pharmaceuticals Ltd will focus on developing medications for ailments relating to cardiology, dermatology and respiratory conditions.
Speaking on the sidelines of the launch of Diabetes treatment drugs using Teneligliptin-based drugs Ziten and Zita Plus, Sujesh Vasudevan, President and Head – India Business, Glenmark Pharmaceuticals, said dermatology is one of the fastest-growing areas as more people are giving importance to beauty and wellness.
“Though the products are sold based on prescription, people are increasingly opting for dermatology and cosmetology clinics because of the trust factor in the doctors rather than over-the-counter beauty products,” Vasudevan said.
The company will also be launching Teneligliptin and Metformin combination product, which is currently under clinical trials at 30 centres.
