About APL

We are one of Europe’s largest manufacturers of extemporaneous medicines and a leading contract manufacturer within the life science sector.

Our operations

Our task is to develop and manufacture individually adapted medicines for patients with additional needs, such as children who need specific concentrations or flavors, and patients with various difficulties. Our operations are carried out in close collaboration with specialists, county councils and public agencies to ensure patients have access to the right treatments.

APL also offers contract development and manufacturing services to biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies. We have resources to develop, manufacture and analyze specialist medicines and other niche products.

Our story

The Swedish pharmacy sector was nationalized in the early 1970s, and Apoteksbolaget AB was formed. The company included Apotek Produktion & Laboratorium AB (APL), tasked with providing prescribers with extemporaneous medicines or specially manufactured formulations for individually adapted treatments for their patients. With the deregulation of the pharmacy market in 2009, pharmacies were no longer allowed to produce medicines, and therefore APL was disconnected from Apoteket AB in June 2010.
