Company Profile

Daiichi Sankyo

Company Overview

Innovation is at the center of everything we do.

Our long history of scientific leadership includes the discoveries of vitamin B1 and troglitazone, and the first isolation of epinephrine – better known as adrenaline. Our research has led to new classes of pharmaceuticals for hypertension, oncology and more, such as the discovery of the statin class of lipid-lowering agents and the development of the first glitazone, which revolutionized long-term control of type 2 diabetes.

Today, innovation remains at the center of everything we do. We build on our legacy through ongoing research to create world-class medicines, pairing existing ideas with new ones, as we pursue our highest goal: to improve quality of life for patients around the globe.
