Note: All growth figures refer to year-to-date worldwide sales growth in local currencies

 

Novartis has received seven major new regulatory approvals for pharmaceuticals in the US and Europe since the start of 2007, making significant progress in delivering a wave of new medicines – many with “first-in-class” status addressing significant medical needs.

 

These include the approval and launch of the high blood pressure medicine Tekturna/Rasilez in the US, with a launch in Europe anticipated soon. Exforge was launched in the US – three months ahead of schedule – and also in Europe. Others approved and launched in the first half were Aclasta/Reclast in the US for Paget’s disease, the blindness therapy Lucentis in Europe and Sebivo in Europe and China for hepatitis B. Exelon Patch won US approval in July as the first skin patch therapy for Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease dementia.
