ResQ-Care: High-quality medical products
Discover the milestones of Apocare Pharma GmbH
From the beginnings in 1993 to the innovation of today
Apocare Pharma GmbH’s journey began in 1993, when we were founded as a service brand for pharmacies. Our pioneering spirit led to the development of numerous healthcare companies that set new standards with innovative homecare services and patient-centred care. The growing demand for our products led to the establishment of a specialised wholesaler for home care and care of the seriously ill. Over time, we continued to specialise and expanded our portfolio to include products in the fields of oncology, haematology and immunology.
2003: A turning point in research and development
In 2003, cooperation with leading German and international research institutions marked a turning point. We began to develop and produce our own pharmaceutical products, particularly in the fields of photodynamic therapy in oncology and photodynamic inactivation of bacteria. An interdisciplinary team of pharmacists, biologists, chemists and physicists drove our research forward.
A look into the future
Apocare Pharma GmbH stands for new paths in therapeutical approaches in order to continuously improve the lives of patients in a quality-orientated manner. Our history shows our commitment to finding answers to solutions beyond the known paths. Together we are working towards a healthier world.
