Dr. Reddy's launches gSuboxone
Dr Reddy Lab Dr. Reddy's Laboratories has
announced that it is launching generic of Buprenorphine and Naloxone Sublingual
Film (Suboxone) following a final USFDA approval in the US market.
The product is being launched with USFDA’s
approved Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) Program. US Company,
Mylan has also launched this drug in the US market. Considering that the patent
on this drug is still valid, this is at risk launch.
Buprenorphine and naloxone are used to
treat adults with opioid dependence/addiction. The combination of these
medications is used as part of a complete treatment program including
prescription monitoring, counselling, and psychosocial support. The launch has
been very important as per the USFDA’s recent statements indicating increasing
opioid addiction in America.
Maruti Suzuki likely to bid adieu to
Ignis Diesel variant
India’s largest passenger vehicle (PV)
manufacturer Maruti Suzuki India Limited (MSIL) is likely to stop production of
diesel variant of its hatchback Ignis, as per media reports. The Ignis was
launched in January 2017 with both variants – petrol and diesel. While the
petrol variant will be retained, diesel version will be likely discontinued.
Several reasons could be responsible for the decision.
Firstly, the steep pricing proved to be a
deterrent. While the petrol Ignis is priced between Rs4.66Lakh and Rs6.51Lakh,
the diesel variant ranges between Rs6.32Lakh and Rs8.12Lakh (ex-showroom price
in New Delhi as per website www.cardekho.com).
Secondly, consumers are increasingly sceptical of owning diesel cars given that
price difference between diesel and petrol in the retail market (fuel pumps) is
narrowing. As per media reports, about 90% of Ignis models sold so far have
been petrol variants and only 10% have been diesel variants. Lastly, it makes
more sense for MSIL to free up capacity for its best-selling models rather than
continuing with laggards.

for every two and equity shares of Rs1 each (after sub-division of shares).

could be good news for the company.
