Actavis' activities at the site include the manufacture, importation, and distribution of medicines. Among its assets stands out the factory located in the city of Rio de Janeiro and a portfolio of more than 30 products, including branded and generic drugs.

The agreement is subject to the approval of the Administrative Council for Economic Defense (CADE) as Biolab would gain control of Actavis and become responsible for the plant and all its products.
