The subcutaneous injection will be marketed in partnership with Apotex.
According to the public report, Lilly’s original Forteo was launched in the U.S. market in 2002, maintaining a strong market presence until Alvogen’s Bonsity received approval in 2019. Last year, Forteo was one of Lilly’s top-selling products, contributing approximately USD 613 million to the company’s annual revenues.- Flcube.com
