Our state-of-the-art R&D centers in Bangalore and Mumbai use cutting-edge technology to deliver high-value products. Micro Labs R&D uses science and technology to develop medicines that improve the quality of millions of people’s lives through better health and is committed to continual learning and innovation in line with our ideology of “Health is in small Details”.

R&D is working on a variety of dosage forms, with a focus on conventional as well as novel drug delivery systems for Solid orals, Topicals, Liquids, and Sterile products for the regulated, emerging, and Indian markets. Our product development focus is mostly on specialty pharmaceuticals with complex formulations across a variety of therapeutic areas.

With over 400 scientists on staff, the R&D team helps with everything from strategic sourcing to global regulatory submissions including formulation development, analytical development, validation, packaging development, technology transfer, bio-equivalence, IP management, etc. Our R&D teams use cutting-edge technologies, outstanding competencies, and strategic relationships to create a one-of-a-kind solution that offers Micro Labs an edge in the markets it serves.

Our strong formulation R&D skills, along with an understanding of the regulatory environment, have resulted in product registrations in several markets.
