 | | Cipla has offered to pay the patent-holders a royalty on its sales if it is allowed to sell its low-priced generic version of the drugs in Third World countries, mostly in Africa, which are in the grip of an AIDS epidemic. |
 | | Cipla’s offer is time-bound, it has asked for a response by January 25, 2001, "given the urgency of the public health crisis". |
 | | Cipla also says that the commercial manufacture of active pharmaceutical durg ingredients like pioglitazone, topotecan, abacavir, alosetron, apraclonidine, linezolid, among others are on the anvil in the near future. |
