Overview

Takeda has created numerous pharmaceutical products, including the four international strategic products (Leuprorelin Acetate, Lansoprazole, Candesartan Cilexetil, Pioglitazone Hydrochloride), which are distributed in many countries around the world. In the hopes of continuously developing superior pharmaceutical products to follow these and delivering at the earliest possible date the new drugs that are eagerly awaited by patients, we are, being guided by the MPDRAP (Marketing, Production, Development, Research, Alliance, Patent) strategy, committed to the development of new drugs by focusing our management resources on the four core therapeutic areas of: life-style related diseases; oncology and urological diseases; central nervous system diseases, and gastroenterological diseases.
