Supply & Market

Taj Pharma supplies WHO-GMP Deferasirox dispersible tablets to Iraq through Gulf-region wholesalers, hospital pharmacies and Ministry-of-Health tenders. Shipments to Taj Pharma India Ltd. arrive via Jebel Ali, Dammam, Aqaba and Beirut, with full Arabic / English secondary-pack labelling on request.

The Iraq market for iron-chelation therapy is driven by a high regional prevalence of thalassemia and other transfusion-dependent anaemias, where Deferasirox is the preferred once-daily oral chelator.

Our regulatory and commercial team in Mumbai partners directly with importers, hospital procurement officers and Ministry-of-Health tender desks across Iraq — from Baghdad to regional referral centres — for streamlined supply continuity.

Regulatory Pathway in Iraq

Deferasirox dispersible tablets are registered in Iraq with the Iraqi Ministry of Health (IMOH). Taj Pharma submits the full CTD dossier (Modules 1–5) along with our WHO-GMP certificate, CoPP, manufacturing licence, plant master file and validated stability data to IMOH. Our regulatory desk handles queries, sample submissions and post-approval variations on behalf of local marketing-authorisation holders.

Local agent appointment, secondary packaging in Arabic, Kurdish, and pharmacovigilance reporting are all coordinated from our Mumbai head office. Documentation can be couriered or e-submitted to IMOH in Baghdad.
