Dr. Reddy’s gets first-cycle NDA approval for Impoyz Cream

Date: 01-12-2017

Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories, through its wholly owned subsidiary Promius Pharma, LLC, has received fifth consecutive, first-cycle NDA approval for the Proprietary Products Group, a substantial milestone within the pharmaceutical industry.

Impoyz (clobetasol propionate) Cream, 0.025% is a high potency topical steroid approved for the treatment of moderate to severe plaque psoriasis in patients 18 years of age or older. The most common side effect of IMPOYZ Cream includes discoloration of the treated site. Psoriasis is a serious medical condition affecting approximately 7.5 million people in the United States. Impoyz, formerly referred to as DFD-06, had been recently licensed to Encore Dermatology Inc. for the commercialization of the product in the United States.

This approval is another example of the deep and broad capabilities within the Proprietary Products business unit at Dr. Reddy's. The organization has achieved several milestones within drug, device, and formulation research and development for novel therapies.

Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories is a multinational pharmaceutical company based in Hyderabad, Telangana in India. It manufactures and markets a wide range of pharmaceuticals in India and overseas.
