The company donated its flagship antipyretic and
anti-inflammatory medication, Geworin (a combination of acetaminophen and
isopropylantipyrine). As the second-largest pain relief product globally,
trailing only Tylenol, Geworin holds the top spot in sales within Korea.
These medications have been supplied at no cost to
underserved communities and free healthcare clinics for foreign workers in
Korea through local charities like the Korea Foundation for International
Healthcare, Soul Love People, and Good News World.
In addition, assistance has been extended to areas impacted
by the recent Noto Peninsula earthquake in Japan, conflict-ridden Ukraine, and
regions with limited medical resources, including Myanmar, Cambodia, and
Malawi.
Choi Yong-ju, CEO of Samjin Pharmaceuticals, “We hope that
this donation of medicines will help many regions struggling with inadequate
medical infrastructure. We will continue to fulfill our corporate social
responsibility by supporting vulnerable and marginalized groups through ongoing
projects.”
