Of the 7,000 known rare diseases, less than 10% have an available treatment option. Since 2007, through our dedicated business unit Recordati Rare Diseases, we’ve focused on helping the few who suffer from little known conditions. Our mission is to reduce the impact of rare and devastating diseases by providing urgently needed medicines in key therapeutic areas.
We believe that health, and the opportunity to live life to the fullest, is a right, not a privilege. We want to give people the opportunity to unlock the full potential of life.
Recordati provides medicines across a range of therapeutic areas.
Our core therapy areas include:
Endocrinology
Your endocrine system is comprised of a network of glands in your body that produces and secrete hormones. Hormones are chemical messengers that carry information and instructions from one part of the body to another, that control or regulate many bodily functions, including growth and development, metabolism, reproduction, and mood, among others. Many diseases may impact how the varied endocrines glands work in the body, resulting in disordered hormone production and secretion which may underlie burdensome, and in some cases, life-threatening syndromes and condition if left untreated.
Some of these diseases are rare and only affect a few people globally. These conditions are often difficult to diagnose due to lack of awareness of varied signs and symptoms, which can result in delayed diagnosis and/or undertreatment. Recordati Rare Disease is focused on targeted endocrine conditions associated with high unmet need and burden and is committed to providing better treatment options and solutions for patients, with a particular focus on improving the lives of those suffering from pituitary and adrenal gland dysfunction(s) or related conditions, which can impact growth and metabolism imbalances.
