About Essential Pharma

Essential Pharma ensures the sustainable supply of low volume, difficult to manufacture but clinically well-established pharmaceutical products to patients. These branded and generic medicines form an essential part of the pharmacopeia and represent many therapeutic areas. The company is an important partner to healthcare providers by providing medicines that otherwise would not be available.
The Company’s significant and sustained investment has ensured that many tried and tested lower volume pharmaceuticals, which are important for the wellbeing of patients across a variety of disease areas in many geographies, remain available on a sustainable basis at a fair price.
