The drug maker stated that it becomes the first company in the world to receive approval for this product as a convenient, patient friendly oral mouth dissolving/dispersing film formulation. This approval is a hybrid application and Shilpa's product is bioequivalent to the reference product.

It is involved in the manufacturing, packaging, labeling, and testing of finished dosage forms, including oral dispersible/dissolving films and transdermal patches.

Raichur-based Shilpa Medicare is a vertically integrated manufacturer and distributor of quality drugs to global markets, specializing in the oncology therapeutic segment and introducing novel drugs focusing on patient convenience and compliance.
