Renfu Pharmaceutical stated that the application for Paravir injection has been accepted, marking the entry of this product’s domestic manufacturing drug registration into the review and approval stage. The company will actively advance subsequent related work. If the review and approval process is successfully completed, it will enrich the company’s product portfolio and help enhance its market competitiveness. As of now, Renfu Pharmaceutical has six approved products in the field of systemic antiviral drugs, including Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate Tablets and Entecavir Tablets.
