2003 AUG 7 - (NewsRx.com & NewsRx.net) -- Schering AG, Germany, (SCH, SHR) announced that the European Union has positively concluded the Mutual Recognition Procedure for Schering's novel low dose hormone replacement therapy (HRT) product Angeliq.
After the decision is made, the European member states usually get the official certificate of approval within 3 months. The rollout of the pan European launch for Angeliq will begin this autumn. Schering received the first European approval for Angeliq in December 2002 in the Netherlands, which served as the reference member state for the Mutual Recognition Procedure (MRP).
Angeliq is a low-dose combination preparation and the only HRT product which combines estradiol with the unique progestin drospirenone, developed by Schering. It is indicated for the treatment of menopausal symptoms and the prevention of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women.
