New Market Launch: Tiefenbacher Pharmaceuticals successfully launches the antihistamine Bilastine for a market entry as over-the-counter (OTC) medicine in Germany

The allergy season is starting. Therefore we at Tiefenbacher Pharmaceuticals are thrilled to announce that we have successfully prepared the launch of the antihistamine Bilastine for a market entry as Over-the-counter (OTC) medicine in Germany.

Bilastine is an innovative anti-allergy medicine for patients suffering from allergic symptoms, such as hay fever and urticaria. It belongs to the non-sedating second-generation antihistamines. Generics are therapeutically equivalent to their branded counterparts with a lower price due to losing patent protection. The low cost of generic medications promotes patient affordability and contributes to lower per capita healthcare spending. The 20 mg tablets have been developed in TIEFENBACHER GROUP´s own laboratories. This product is currently marketed by our partner, a well-known international pharmaceutical company.

With this market entry we enable patients in Germany a better access to an important medicine. Moreover, it’s currently the only product of this type available in pharmacies without a prescription needed. Further generic launches in European markets are planned soon. Tiefenbacher Pharmaceuticals is committed to continuously making high-quality medicines better affordable, better global availability, and better than before.
