Aurobindo Pharma launches Cefactam

20 Feb 2002

Mumbai: Aurobindo Pharma has launched Cefactam — a powerful combination of Cefoperazone (the highly-potent third-generation Cephalosporin) and Salbactam (a powerful beta-lactamase enzyme inhibitor). This combination makes it a highly efficient drug to counter life-threatening infectious diseases.

Cephalosporins are one of the 11 segments in which Aurobindo operates. The continuous success in launching several first-, second-, third- and fourth-generation sterile as well as oral Cephalosporins has enabled Aurobindo to become one of the world's largest players in this segment.

Aurobindo proposes to launch several Cephalosporins like Cefdinir, Cefprozil and Cefipime in the near future.
