Despite the amazing advances in medical science over the past generation, the causes and cures of many diseases have yet to be discovered.

For more than 40 years, Taisho has worked in conjunction with hospitals and medical professionals to develop and produce efficacious ethical pharmaceuticals. Ethical drug development activities are founded on basic research to answer the questions "What causes this disease?" and "How can we respond?" As we learn about the mechanisms of disease and health in such fields as circulatory disorders, inflammation, immunological disorders, infection, and cancers, we seek to clarify the kinds of drugs necessary for effective treatment.

Taisho has always endeavored to ever increase the speed and effectiveness of our research and development of drug breakthroughs.
