Marksans Pharma Ltd. added yet another feather in its cap with the dawn of Criticare Division in January 2003. This foray into Biotechnology Drugs Marketing will only further enhance the reputation of Marksans Pharma in the Indian Pharmaceutical Scenario.
This division is designated to bring the biotechnology revolutions at the door step of the Indians.
The division started with marketing a hi-tech brand of Enokaparin with brand name Marparin. That is followed by anti cancer drugs like Gemcitabine (Gemcel), Interferon (Mark-Feron) and Paclitaxel (Paclimark).
With the advent of Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF), Interleukin II (IL-2), G-CSF, Erythropoetin (EPO) etc. Marksans is poised to become a leading player in Critical Care treatment, mainly addressing the needs of cancer patients.
The Company also has plans to acquire Biotechnology know-how and start manufacturing Human Recombinant Drugs in India and become a major player in Biotechnology by 2010.
