This USFDA approval is expected to bolster Alembic’s financial performance and solidify its position in the US generic drug market.

Alembic’s Strong US Footprint

The company has now secured a cumulative total of 212 ANDA approvals, including 184 final USFDA approvals and 28 tentative USFDA approvals.

This impressive track record underscores Alembic’s commitment to providing high-quality, affordable generic medications to patients in the United States.
