UPSA pharmaceutical laboratory

Historically specialists in the fight against pain or colds and self-medication in pharmacies , the UPSA laboratories ( Union of Scientific Applied Pharmacology ) were created in Agen in 1935 by Doctor Camille Bru.

UPSA uses unique know-how and technology in Europe in the manufacture of its effervescent tablets, guaranteeing very high quality effervescence.

Using gravity for product transfers, this materializes in a unique industrial installation: the production tower. The principle consists of conveying all the raw materials to the top of the tower and then gradually lowering them by the simple law of gravity.

Integrated within Bristol-Myers Squibb in 1994, the UPSA Company has since given way to the UPSA brand.

In December 2018, Bristol-Myers announced the sale of UPSA to the Japanese group Taisho Pharmaceutical, which is the largest over-the-counter drug company in Japan and the 8th globally.

On July 1, 2019, the sale of UPSA to Taisho Pharmaceutical was formalized. UPSA retains its status as a company, however, and its flagship brands remain manufactured in France on its site.

Through the UPSA brand, Taisho Pharmaceutical is today the only drug company to offer a full range of three levels of analgesics, from cheap aspirin to paracetamol.

This diversity makes it possible to address all patients - from infants to the elderly - and to offer treatments adapted to all types of pain. Cough, colds, flu-like symptoms, digestion, fitness, sleep disorders: through its range of self-medication at low prices, UPSA develops and makes available non-prescription drugs to treat everyday ailments.

Because health is on the move, the UPSA non-prescription drug brand for sale online is constantly on the lookout for innovation. The galenic development center based on the UPSA site in Agen allows it to adapt to changes in the needs of patients with whom it has established a relationship of trust. Leader in family medication , the UPSA brand constantly seeks to help them in their daily health, through the quality and accessibility of its products at low prices. These values make UPSA, in France and in Europe, a daily health ally.
