Impax Labs Careers and Info

Impax Labs Overview

Impax Laboratories develops and sells specialty pharmaceutical products. One of its divisions, Impax Pharmaceuticals, focuses on treatments for central nervous system disorders such as Parkinson’s disease, epilepsy, ADD and Alzheimer’s disease. The other division, Global Pharmaceuticals, is devoted to developing new technologies for dealing with difficult drug-related procedures such as complicated formulation, special handling requirements or problems in sourcing raw materials. The company currently offers over a hundred generic pharmaceutical products and has an application before the FDA for a new Parkinson’s treatment.

The company began in 1999 when privately held Impax Pharmaceuticals completed a reverse merger with Global Pharmaceutical Corporation resulting in the formation of a new firm called Impax Laboratories. The first organization had the research and development capabilities, and the second had sales, marketing and distribution facilities, so the new company was uniquely positioned for current and future success. The company headquarters is in Hayward, California.
