The acquisition includes a portfolio of 25 sterile injectable products, three in-licensed ophthalmic products and a pipeline of seven additional products, four of which are approved by Health Canada.

“This acquisition further expands our portfolio of essential sterile injectable medicines and gives Hikma an entry into the highly attractive Canadian injectables market,” Riad Mishlawi, president of Hikma Injectables, said. “The combination of our sales and marketing expertise and this portfolio of exciting products will enable us to expand our North American business and develop a solid position in this important market.”
