Founded in 1987, Karo is a leading European consumer healthcare company headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden, with products available in more than 90 countries.

Under the new agreement, Zuellig Pharma will be the exclusive commercialisation partner for Karo's over-the-counter (OTC) brand Lamisil®, a product for the treatment of fungal infections, across Hong Kong, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan and Vietnam. With industry-leading coverage across healthcare professionals and retail pharmacies in Asia and in-market commercial expertise, ZP Therapeutics, the commercial division of Zuellig Pharma, will be steering this partnership.

"I'm confident that ZP Therapeutics' extensive partner network and proven commercial expertise will be critical in facilitating greater access for in-demand consumer healthcare products in Asia."
