• Successful launch of Bentrio by Pharma Nordic AS in Norway in 2024
• Exclusive distribution agreement extended to also include Sweden and Denmark

Altamira Therapeutics announced that its associate company Altamira Medica Ltd. has agreed with its Norwegian partner Pharma Nordic AS (“Pharma Nordic”) to extend the territory covered by their exclusive distribution agreement for Bentrio® to Sweden and Denmark. Following the successful launch in Norway earlier this year, Pharma Nordic intends to introduce the Bentrio nasal spray for the prevention and treatment of allergic rhinitis in these two additional Scandinavian countries next year.

“We have been very pleased and impressed by Pharma Nordic’s market launch activities and success in Norway,” commented Thomas Meyer, Altamira Medica’s Chairman and CEO. “It is therefore of mutual interest to expand in a next step the geographical scope of our collaboration to include Sweden and Denmark. We look forward to bringing Bentrio to patients in these two other countries and to continuing to build the product together with Pharma Nordic into one of the leading brands for allergic rhinitis management in Scandinavia.”

“We received very favorable responses to Bentrio from members of the medical community and allergic rhinitis sufferers in Norway, showing a clear need for effective and safe treatment alternatives” stated Bent Andreassen, CEO of Pharma Nordic. “With its drug-free and preservative-free formulation, as well as strong data on efficacy and tolerability, Bentrio is uniquely positioned to address patients’ unmet needs. We are very excited to continue the roll-out in Norway and to take Bentrio into the Swedish and Danish markets, which share many things in common, notably a passion for innovative health care products.”
