New Delhi, Nov 27 (NationPress) Senores Pharmaceuticals and Dr. Reddy's Laboratories have unveiled the launch of ivermectin tablets USP, 3 mg, in the US market.
The tablets, aimed at treating worm infections, will be distributed by Dr. Reddy's. This product is the generic equivalent of Merck Sharp and Dohme’s Stromectol.
“We are excited to enhance our growth trajectory with the introduction of a product that faces limited competition. With our persistent focus on niche opportunities, we take pride in being the second generic to secure approval for this offering,” stated Swapnil Shah, Managing Director of Senores Pharmaceuticals Limited.
