Access to medicines

We are committed to prioritising the availability and accessibility of more affordable generic medicines by leveraging our local presence to ensure long-term security of supply, and reliable access for patients.

We are investing in R&D and Business Development to ensure we are able to grow our portfolio and launch products that may not have previously been available or affordable to patients, or that can help to address shortage situations.

We are committed to a holistic approach, working with health care providers, clinics and directly with patients to improve the overall patient journey.

We work with industry partners to sell in-licensed patented products in our markets, as well as offering contract manufacturing services. We also form collaborations with sector-specific/industry-driven associations to improve availability of generic medicines to patients.

We continuously engage with policymakers to better align our activities to national health priorities. We co-ordinate with national governments during crisis situations to support access to medicines.

We are committed to leveraging our Medicine Donations Programme to respond to crisis situations and provide relief to marginalised population segments. We have streamlined processes with global NGOs to offer donations of medicines and medical equipment.
