Two-thirds - or 20,000 - of the diseases and conditions known to medical science cannot be cured or treated adequately at the moment. This is why there will continue to be a great demand for new drugs which are both effective and safe.

As a research-based company with global operations, Nycomed is contributing to sustainable improvements in the quality of patients’ lives by supplying innovative and established therapies. The company researches, develops and produces a wide range of pharmaceuticals.

The main emphasis of its business is prescription drugs from its own research pipeline destined to treat gastrointestinal and respiratory diseases.
