PLIVA

With 100 years of successful pharmaceutical experience, PLIVA is today a member of the Teva Group, one of the largest global pharmaceutical companies. We at PLIVA are dedicated to providing our customers with high quality, affordable medicines for a better quality of life. PLIVA is the largest pharmaceutical company in Croatia and one of the leading companies in Southeast Europe thanks to its highly competent employees, innovative technologies and continuous investments in production. PLIVA is also one of the major exporters in Croatia with over 80% of products intended for exports, and its major markets are Croatia, the USA and Russia. PLIVA's production portfolio includes a high number of finished dosage forms covering almost all therapeutic groups and active pharmaceutical ingredients. Focused on development of generic and niche products, PLIVA has the broadest portfolio of generic medicines in Central and Eastern Europe. Thanks to the approvals by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the British Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) and those of other relevant European agencies, PLIVA is one of the manufacturers complying with the highest global quality standards required for international markets. PLIVA's success and status may be largely attributed to its in-house research and development of finished dosage forms and active pharmaceutical ingredients, and Zagreb is therefore today one of the leading R&D centres in the Teva Group. In addition to Croatia, PLIVA successfully operates in Southeast European markets, ie. in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Slovenia, Serbia, Montenegro and Macedonia.
