Seizing opportunities > for further growth
With the acquisition of APP Pharmaceuticals, Fresenius Kabi has achieved a leading position in the global market for intravenously administered generic drugs. APP Pharmaceuticals has a strong drug registration portfolio pending and over 70 products under development, opening up new growth opportunities.
At the same time, we are seizing the opportunity of introducing selected Kabi products into the US, with initial focus on parenteral nutrition. We are also planning to launch selected APP IV drugs outside the US.
