Our Story

Irish By Origin. Global By Impact.

Founded in 2005, Eirgen Pharma has grown into a global leader in developing and manufacturing high-potency medicines. We specialize in softgel capsules, film-coated tablets, and powder or liquid-filled hard-shell capsules. 

​

We focus on complex pharmaceuticals, especially oncology therapies, and are proud to be a trusted CDMO and CMO partner to many of the world's top pharmaceutical companies.

​

Since becoming part of the OPKO Health family in 2015, we've expanded both our R&D capabilities and GMP-compliant manufacturing facilities. Our newest facility - launching in Q3 of 2025 -  will allow for an additional 1-billion-unit capacity by 2027, strengthening our ability to deliver innovation, meet global regulatory standards (FDA, EMA, HPRA, PMDA), and support customers worldwide with a robust supply chain. 

​

Under the leadership of Chief Executive Officer, Damien Burke, Eirgen Pharma now supplies life-changing medicines to patients in over 60 countries, including the United States, Europe, Japan, Canada, the Middle East, Australia, and Africa.
