Catalent Pharma Solutions and GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) have agreed to extend their contractual relationship where Catalent will continue to supply GSK with its trade requirements of Lovaza omega-3 acid ethyl esters in soft gelatin capsules. Lovaza is an omega-3 prescription medication derived from fish oil approved by the US FDA to reduce very high triglycerides. The Lovaza softgels are manufactured in Catalent's St. Petersburg, Florida facility, which is part of Catalent's Oral Technologies segment.

"We value our long-term partnership with GSK and look forward to continuing that relationship," said Dr. Aris Gennadios, Catalent's vice president and general manager, Pharmaceutical Softgels.

Headquartered in Somerset, New Jersey, Catalent Pharma Solutions is a leading provider of advanced dose form and packaging technologies, and development, manufacturing and packaging services for pharmaceutical, biotechnology and consumer healthcare companies in nearly 100 countries.
