Sun Pharma Launches Novel Topical Treatment

Moving on to news from the pharma sector, Sun Pharma on Wednesday announced that PRWINLEVI is now available in Canada.

According to the company's press statement, WINLEVI is the first and only androgen receptor inhibitor indicated for the topical treatment of acne vulgaris (acne) in patients 12 years of age and older.

Instead of a topical approach to acne treatment that focuses on follicular hyperkeratinisation, reducing inflammation or exerting antibacterial effects, WINLEVI is thought to reduce the effects of acne hormones on the skin by disrupting the androgen cascade.

While the exact way that WINLEVI works is unknown, it aims to inhibit the effects of androgen receptors in cells of the sebaceous glands (oil-producing glands in the skin) to help reduce sebum (oil) production and inflammatory cytokines.

Sun Pharma is the fourth largest specialty generic pharmaceutical company in the world.

Among the top global pharmaceutical giants, Sun Pharma is the ninth largest pharma company in the USA generic medications market and second in the dermatology segment.

It is among 4 Pharma Stocks to Watch Out for Potential Multibagger Returns.
