Russian company supplied insulin to Venezuela

Domestic company Geropharm has delivered 840,000 insulin packs to Caracas, the capital of Venezuela.

It is noted that this is the company's first batch sent to Venezuela. It contains not only genetically engineered human insulin, but also analogues of insulin, which would increase the possibility of diabetes treatment in the South American country.

It shall be reminded that insulin analogues are used for treatment of adults and children suffering from diabetes mellitus of the first type. Through the delivery of Russian products people with this disease in Venezuela will be provided with the full range of modern insulin.

To date the manufacturer "Geropharm" is the only supplier of insulin to this country in South America. The current shipment consists of genetically engineered short- and medium-acting human insulins. The shipment will meet the full need of over 400,000 people with diabetes for up to 2 months.

Another 20,000 reusable syringe pens will arrive in Caracas by sea in early August, which Geropharm bought with its own money, as it is not the manufacturer of these products.
