Sun Pharma is the fourth largest specialty generic pharmaceutical company. Its 2014 acquisition of Ranbaxy made Sun Pharma the biggest pharma company in India. The acquisition also gave the company a legal headache in the U.S. that led the company to settle in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts for $485 million. One sales highlight in 2021 is the psoriasis treatment Ilumya (tildrakizumab-asmn), whose sales were $143 million, an increase of 51% over the prior year. In 2021, the company launched Ilumya (tildrakizumab injection) for moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis in Canada. In the U.S., it launched an acne product known as Winlevi (clascoterone) cream 1%. With more than 40 manufacturing facilities, the company serves patients in more than 100 countries worldwide. —BB
