Founded in Jerusalem in 1901, Teva has grown through organic development and strategic acquisitions to become one of the world’s largest pharmaceutical companies.

These initiatives have reinforced the company’s ability to bring both generics and novel medicines to market efficiently.
Teva’s product lineup encompasses thousands of molecules, including widely prescribed generic drugs and proprietary specialty treatments such as Copaxone for multiple sclerosis, Austedo for chorea associated with Huntington’s disease, and Ajovy for migraine prevention. In addition to finished dosage forms, Teva operates a robust active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) business, supplying key intermediates and finished APIs to partners around the world.
