 PROFILE
Aventis' adventure is well under way. One full year after Aventis was formed by the merger of France's Rhône-Poulenc and Germany's Hoechst, the company is one of the world's largest drugmakers. Aventis Pharma contributes almost 80% of company sales; top-sellers are Allegra, an antiallergy drug, and Lovenox, a drug for prevention and treatment of thrombosis and other cardiovascular conditions. The company has plans to exit the crop protection and animal nutrition businesses, as well as other non-core operations, in order to focus on Aventis Pharma and its activities: prescription drugs, human vaccines, therapeutic proteins, and a 50% stake in Merial (an animal health joint venture with Merck & Co.).
