Dr. Mohammad Sadat Wasim after his initial primary education in his hometown, went to Tagore International School, Delhi. Later to Hamdard University. He did his medical graduation, MBBS, from North Bengal Medical College, Darjeeling. Post-graduation from IPGMER and SSKM Hospital, Kolkata. He also worked as a faculty teacher in HIMSAR Medical College, Delhi, for some time. Staying in different states in India and his discerning for new knowledge has made him aware of the different challenges and the will to overcome them.
After completing his formal medical education of M.B.B.S and post-graduation in the medical field, Dr. Mohammad Sadat Wasim, along with his wife, Dr. Nikhat Ara (Director), started the company with the aim of providing quality drugs at affordable prices to patients.
He was always moved by the fact that medical doctors treat patients and run diagnostics, but are represented very little in the pharmaceutical industry. With this realization, he was determined to enter the domain and run an organization guided by the right products and medical expertise.

Their integrity in partnering with quality-driven manufacturing units at both national and international levels proved to be a key step in the right direction, paving the way for the company’s success and early recognition.
In the Indian context, where nearly 70% of health issues stem from nutritional deficiencies, particularly a lack of core nutrients and micronutrients, Dr. Md. Sadat Wasim and Dr. Nikhat Ara recognized a crucial gap in healthcare, especially across rural and semi-urban areas. With this understanding, Dr. Md. Sadat Wasim initially focused on addressing these needs through affordable products and a sound marketing strategy directed toward healthcare specialists.
Subsequently, Dr. Mohammad Sadat Wasim expanded the company’s focus to specific health concerns such as iron deficiency anaemia and deficiencies in zinc, magnesium, and other essential micronutrients that, though often overlooked, play a vital role in overall health. Antioxidants, which support the body in combating cellular ageing and stress, also became a central part of the therapeutic portfolio under his guidance.
Understanding the competitive nature of the pharmaceutical industry, Dr. Md. Sadat Wasim placed strong emphasis on maintaining a prompt and reliable supply chain. He prioritized building a young and energetic field force, ensuring product availability and market reach, supported by a strong network of distributors built on mutual trust, bonding, and shared business purpose.
