Supriya Lifescience Receives Brazil Approval for Esketamine Hydrochloride and Files Patent for Atorvastatin Synthesis

• Supriya Lifescience has secured approval from Brazil's ANVISA for Esketamine Hydrochloride, marking the first Indian company to achieve this milestone. • The approval allows Supriya Lifescience to expand its portfolio in Brazil and the broader LATAM region, addressing the growing demand for affordable mental health treatments. • Supriya Lifescience has also filed a patent for an innovative, cost-effective method for synthesizing Atorvastatin, a widely used drug for managing cholesterol and preventing cardiovascular diseases. • The new Atorvastatin synthesis technique aims to enhance drug efficacy while reducing production costs, thereby increasing affordability for patients.

Supriya Lifescience Ltd. has announced two significant developments poised to strengthen its international presence: approval from Brazil's health authority, ANVISA, for Esketamine Hydrochloride, and the filing of a patent for a cost-effective manufacturing technique for Atorvastatin. The ANVISA approval makes Supriya Lifescience the first Indian company to receive such authorization, allowing it to introduce Esketamine Hydrochloride to the Brazilian market and expand its reach across Latin America. This strategic move addresses the increasing demand for novel and affordable treatments for mental illnesses in the LATAM region.

Esketamine Hydrochloride Approval

Esketamine Hydrochloride is a crucial medication used in the treatment of mental illnesses. Supriya Lifescience's entry into the LATAM market with this drug is expected to have a substantial impact, providing state-of-the-art, high-quality healthcare solutions where they are greatly needed. The company emphasizes its commitment to making high-quality healthcare accessible, aligning with the growing demand for reasonably priced drugs in the region.

Patent Filing for Atorvastatin Synthesis

In addition to the Esketamine Hydrochloride approval, Supriya Lifescience has filed a patent for an innovative and cost-effective method of synthesizing Atorvastatin. Atorvastatin is a widely prescribed medication for managing cholesterol and preventing cardiovascular diseases. The company's new technique aims to enhance drug efficacy while simultaneously reducing production costs, ultimately making the medication more affordable for patients.
Satish Wagh, Executive Chairman and Whole Time Director of Supriya Lifescience Ltd., stated, "Our commitment to transforming pharmaceutical manufacturing while maintaining affordability is demonstrated by our invention in the synthesis of atorvastatin. Our global presence is strengthened by the ANVISA approval, which also allows us to introduce cutting-edge therapies like Esketamine Hydrochloride in important foreign countries, starting with Brazil."

Impact and Future Directions

With the ANVISA approval, Supriya Lifescience is now positioned to capitalize on the rapidly expanding LATAM market. The company's focus on innovation, regulatory compliance, and its mission to provide accessible, high-quality healthcare underscores its role as a key player in the global pharmaceutical landscape. Supriya Lifescience will continue to focus on innovation and regulatory compliance to further its mission of making high-quality healthcare accessible worldwide.
