Iran Exports Nanodrugs to Syria

Tehran, Iran | Posted on November 24th, 2014

This product is used for the treatment of diseases, including breast and ovarian cancer. In addition to being presented in the country's markets, this nanodrug has been recently exported to Syria.

According to Dr. Mahnaz Qomi, the CEO of Exir Nano Sina Company, 20mg/10ml injective doxorubicin hydrochloride nano-liposomal anticancer drug, commercially known as Sinadoxosome, was produced in Sobhan Oncology Company and presented to the market for the first time in the Middle-East in 2012 after the acquirement of production permit from the Ministry of Health and Medical Education.
