Discover Sun Pharma Medications and Products
The company is a leader of pharmaceutical industry in India, the fifth largest pharmaceutical producing-country in the world. Besides, Sun Pharma is the 4th largest specialty generic company globally. It was established in 1983 as a producer of just five medications for psychiatric use. Subsequently the company introduced other lines of medications and active pharmaceutical ingredients production, expanded its operations internationally, acquired several pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and became the largest Indian drug-making company and pharmaceutical product exporter.
Brief history of Sun Pharma
The total company’s experience accounts more than 50 years if the years of operation of its acquired companies are considered. Its newest acquisition, Ranbaxy laboratories in 2014 was established in 1961 and the Sun Pharma itself was established in 1983. The first company’s products for four first years were only five psychiatric drugs. In 1987, Sun Pharma launched its first cardiologic medications and in 1989 gastrointestinal medicines. At the same time, Ranbaxy had established its research center and developed in parallel to Sun Pharma until its merger in 2014 which made the final company the largest on the Indian market and the leader in the field of prescribed drugs for chronic conditions, psychiatry, cardiology, ophthalmology, and others.
In 1995-1997 both companies entered the U.S. market acquiring local pharmaceutical companies and starting to produce branded and generic medications at their facilities, at the same time expanding them further. Currently, the share of the sales in the U.S. makes up around 50% of Sun Pharma revenue and turnover. This includes not only the products produced in the U.S. but also generics made at the facilities in India that are approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
