Global pharma major Novartis AG today said it has divested some of its anti-infectives brands mainly catering to the women's healthcare to private equity firm Samara Capital for an undisclosed sum.
The Switzerland-based firm had earlier this year divested its Regestrone and Pregachieve brands in India in women's healthcare to Ahmedabad-based Torrent Pharmaceuticals.
"Samara Capital acquired from Novartis AG, for an undisclosed amount, the rights to the trademarks Cofvector, Monkezin and Glyred along with an exclusive license to the trademarks Curam, Foristal and Gretacal, for use in India", a Novartis spokesperson said in a emailed response to PTI.
