🔥 Medical milestone 🎉

Indian pharma company Wockhardt has secured US FDA and Indian CDSCO approvals for Zaynich, a breakthrough antibiotic targeting deadly, multi-drug-resistant "superbugs."

• The Target: Treats complicated urinary tract and kidney infections, fighting resistant bacteria that contribute to nearly 1 million global deaths annually.

• The Innovation: Hailed as a historic milestone for Indian novel drug discovery and a major weapon against global antibiotic resistance.

• The Pricing Split: While a standard 8–10 day course will cost $10,000–$15,000 in the US, Wockhardt plans to launch it at a fraction of the price in India to ensure patient access.

Zaynich marks a historic win for Indian drug innovation, delivering a critical global lifesaver that will be priced affordably at home. #Health #medicine
