Dipharma acquires UK rare-disease medicines distributor LogixX Pharma
Dipharma Group has acquired longstanding UK partner LogixX Pharma, converting a decade-long rare-disease medicines distribution relationship into a directly owned British commercial operation.
The acquisition announced on 6 November 2026 brings LogixX Pharma into Switzerland-based Dipharma Group, establishing direct UK commercial infrastructure for medicines serving rare and metabolic disease patients through NHS and homecare channels.
LogixX had worked with Dipharma for approximately a decade on specialist medicines including nitisinone and sapropterin dihydrochloride, and the completed transaction strengthens Dipharma's UK distribution presence without a disclosed purchase price or any associated new regulatory approval.
