Creating a strategic partnership with Aptalis will be a key success factor to offer to doctors and patients new treatment opportunities in this essential therapeutic area,” said Fabrice Egros, chief operating officer of NovaMedica. “All of these Aptalis proven therapies have properties that are new to the Russian market.
