Cipla

Cipla is an Indian pharmaceutical company, best-known for manufacturing cheap anti-AIDS drugs. The company was founded in 1935 by Khwaja Abdul Hamied and is today run by Yusuf Hamied. Cipla ignores the patents on these drugs, but no Indian law is broken in the process. With Cipla drugs, the cost of treating an AIDS patient has been reduced from $12,000 to $300 per year, still out of reach for most Indians. The customary treatment of AIDS consists of a cocktail of three drugs. Cipla produces an all-in-one pill called Lamivudine which contains all three substances, something difficult elsewhere because the three patents are held by different companies.
