[Guest guest]

Natco Pharma announced today they will be producing a

generic form of Bendamustine in India and possibly to international

markets.

The new drug will be called BENDIT.

Currently name brand Treanda (Bendamustine) sells for about $1950.00 US for

100mg in India.

They expect to sell BENDIT for around $160US.

Note that Natco also has a generic form of Revlimid available.

And before anyone starts with a quality issue be aware that

Natco Pharma probably makes some of the drugs you now take.

They are ISO-14001, and FDA approved manufacturer.

Also they have some of the most modern production facilities

in the world, cGMP, ISO 9001:2008 certified
