 PROFILE
Biovail hopes to keep the competition's blood pressure on the rise. The firm applies its timed-release drug-delivery systems to existing drugs that treat hypertension, asthma, and arthritis, among other conditions. Anti-hypertension drug Tiazac is one of 17 products sold in more than 50 nations worldwide. Some products are marketed directly through Crystaal, its Canadian sales division; Teva Pharmaceutical Industries handles sales in the US. Biovail also does research for and licenses its products to third parties. It markets Centocor's Retavase (clot-busting) drug in Canada and has North American rights to Aventis' Cardizem hypertension drugs. Chairman Eugene Melnyk owns almost 20% of the company.
