Fourth product approval for the US market
Beximco Pharmaceuticals Limited ("Beximco Pharma" or "the Company"; AIM Symbol: BXP), the fast-growing manufacturer of generic pharmaceutical products and active pharmaceutical ingredients, today announces that it has received approval for its Methocarbamol tablets (500 mg and 750 mg) from the US Food and Drug Administration (US FDA). This product is a generic equivalent to the muscle relaxant Robaxin tablets (500 mg and 750 mg), produced by Auxilium Pharmaceutcials, LLC, for pain relief associated with acute musculoskeletal conditions.
This is Beximco Pharma's fourth Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) successfully approved for the US market since the Company's oral solid dosage facility was approved by the US FDA in June 2015. Beximco Pharma expects to launch the product through its US distribution partner during the last quarter of 2017. According to IMS data, the estimated market for Methocarbamol tablets in the US is approximately $30 million.
Mr. Nazmul Hassan MP, Managing Director of Beximco Pharmaceuticals, commented:
"We are delighted to have received our fourth product approval, within two years, from the US FDA. I firmly believe our US product approvals to date, along with our growing pipeline, will help us to continue to build our presence in this important market. We remain focused on our strategic goal to bring high quality, differentiated products to emerging and developed markets to create value for all our customers and shareholders."
