Mumbai: Affordable version of the combination of hypertension, Valsartan, will soon come out of retail rack.
The Delhi High Court has placed a drug company for a while – including Natco Pharma, Torrent Pharma, Lifesciences Eris and Windlas Biotech – from marketing generic copies of the popular combination of Valsartan and Sacubitril, responding to suit filed by MNC Novartis.
The court ruled that the generic version of violating the patent held by Novartis (IN051) on the combination of Valsartan and Sacubitril, used to treat hypertension.
This product is a complex ‘supramolecular’ of two compounds, where the patent application submitted in 2007 was still delayed, the law expert said to TI.
Generic companies also sell versions of supramolecular drugs.
The supramolecular complex is a structure in which both entities are arranged and bound to form a unit.
Like this, in a patented version, isolated compounds, such as in a physical mixture.
Generic companies, including Natco, are expected to appeal immediately.
The court argued that the supramolecular complex was covered by IN051 patents and violated it, experts added.
The order passed by Jayant Nath justice, the validity of the patent ‘Prima Facie’ upheld.
“Therefore, only because the Plaintiff has applied for supramolecular complex registration of two components of Valsartan and Sacubitril, is the application No.
