The agreement designated Goodlife as the exclusive partner responsible for the importation, marketing and distribution of Ogluo in the Belgium, Netherlands and Luxembourg (Benelux) region.

“The launch of Ogluo in the Netherlands presents a significant milestone for Tetris Pharma, strengthening the commercial reach and pan-European presence of this important product and giving patients living with diabetes who may experience severe hypoglycaemia, a treatment option to tackle those events,” said Tetris Pharma’s senior vice-president and commercial and general manager Dr Helen Parris.

“Goodlife's leading know-how and expertise of regional market dynamics make them an ideal partner to support with the roll-out of Ogluo in the BeNeLux region.

“We look forward to continuing to expand our reach within Europe to bring this treatment option to people living with diabetes.”
