In its human pharmaceutical division, the company manufactures and distributes prescription drugs (ETC) and over-the-counter (OTC) medications, specializing in anti-obesity and metabolic syndrome therapies; cardiovascular and circulatory agents; gastrointestinal treatments; musculoskeletal, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic formulations; central nervous system and respiratory remedies; anti-infectives; and specialized wellness injectables, including thioctic acid, glutathione, ascorbic acid, and placenta extract formulations. In its animal health segment, the company develops and supplies veterinary therapeutics, vaccines, anthelmintics, antibiotics, immune modulators, nutritional supplements, and functional feed additives designed for livestock, poultry, swine, aquaculture, and companion animals. In its bio-aesthetics and wellness division, the company offers hyaluronic acid dermal fillers, polydioxanone (PDO) lifting threads, mesotherapy solutions, skin boosters, functional cosmeceuticals, and health functional foods.
