SA's biggest pharmaceutical group, Aspen Pharmacare, is deepening its footprint in Latin America with the $280 million (R5 billion) acquisition of a portfolio of specialist drugs, including Viagra. | News24_Business

Among other key products in the portfolio are cholesterol-lowering medicine Lipitor, anti-epileptic drug Lyrica, antidepressant Zoloft, hypertension medicine Norvasc and Celebrex, an anti-inflammatory medication. These are being acquired from Nasdaq-listed drug maker Viatris, with Aspen paying $150 million in cash for the portfolio and settling the balance through an extension of supply terms to Viatris.

"Due to the way the products have been integrated into Viatris' business, it is not possible to accurately determine or estimate the profit attributable to the products within Viatris," the group said.
