The Innovative Cationic Emulsion for the Treatment of Dry Eye Symptoms

An Optimal Solution for Patients

The First Product Developed From its Pipeline to be Marketed

EVRY, France, April 9 /PRNewswire/ -- Novagali Pharma, an ophthalmic specialty pharmaceutical company announces the commercial launch in France of its first product Cationorm(R).
