That makes a lot of sense to me, it seems to be a smart strategic move to have drug production under your control. Just like it's smart to be self-sufficient in the production of food.
- AstralStorm 7y agoYup, we're getting done of our generics from Slovenian Krka Group and locally made in Poland too. Some more expensive things mostly from Merck. A few but common from separate Polish manufacturers - sadly a few bigger ones were bought up by Valeant or Teva with concomitant price increase. They're pretty good, compared to random trash from India or China. They cannot match the volume, not even close, to be more than regional EU players.
