Glenmark Pharma Launches Anti-Malaria Drug In the US


Drugmaker Glenmark Pharmaceuticals launched malaria treatment drug atovaquone and proguanil hydrochloride in the US. Atovaquone and proguanil hydrochloride tablets are generic equivalent of GlaxoSmithKline's brand Malarone.
The Indian drugmaker had settled a patent litigation with GlaxoSmithKline in April 2010, which allows Glenmark to launch the generic tablets in the US on royalty-bearing licence in the third quarter of calendar year 2011.
