A track record of responding to Global Public Health Emergencies
The highlight of Hetero’s 27+ years of existence has been its responsive actions to mitigate pandemics and life-threatening diseases afflicting communities across the world.

Since the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, Hetero has been proactive in responding to the various challenges surrounding it. It has been the first company to launch the licensed version of generic Remdesivir under the brand name ‘Covifor’ in India for treating severely infected patients and followed it up with Favipiravir (Favivir) to provide succor to those affected by mild and moderate symptoms. As of today, the company is among the largest manufacturers of Remdesivir globally.
Illustrating its continuing commitment to play its part in the global fight against the pandemic, Hetero has entered into an agreement with the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF) as a manufacturing partner for producing 100 million doses of the Sputnik V vaccine per year. This development also showcases Hetero’s enduring spirit of collaboration and penchant for contributing to global health and well-being.
