Founded in 1913 by pastor Ludwig Heumann, Heumann Pharma is a pharmaceutical company with a long tradition and profound experience in producing medicines.

This allows Heumann Pharma to cover a large range of indications, which translates into astonishing numbers: In 2023, over 16 million packs of Heumann prescription medicines made it into the homes of patients.
