Generic Research – (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient and Finished Product)

Lupin’s generic R&D pipeline is aimed at developing a comprehensive portfolio of high entry barrier products that address unmet patient needs. Our track record of successful ANDA filings and approvals has garnered us leadership in several chronic therapy areas such respiratory, diabetes and cardiovascular in India and hypertension and calcium blockers in the U.S.

Our approach is to invest ahead of the curve to advance Lupin’s global generic R&D pipeline through significant investments in the complex generic platform technologies. With the commissioning of the new global R&D hub in Pune, India, Lupin hosts one of the most advanced pharmaceutical product development and pilot plant facilities for oral, ophthalmic, dermatology and inhalation product development.
