Arecor subsidiary Tetris launching Ogluo in the Netherlands

(Sharecast News) - Arecor Therapeutics updated the market on an announcement made by its subsidiary Tetris Pharma on Thursday, regarding the launch of the 'Ogluo' glucagon prefilled autoinjector pen in the Netherlands. The AIM-traded firm said the launch was a significant advancement in providing treatment for severe hypoglycaemia in individuals aged two years and above living with diabetes mellitus.

"Goodlife's leading know-how and expertise of regional market dynamics make them an ideal partner to support with the roll-out of Ogluo in the BeNeLux region.

"We look forward to continuing to expand our reach within Europe to bring this treatment option to people living with diabetes."
