Established in 1929 as Beaufour Laboratories, IPSEN's (Institute for Synthetic Products and Natural Extraction) business has historically benefited from natural plant-based drugs, as evidenced by the success of Romarene, a digestive disorder drug with extracts of rosemary, since the group's creation.

IPSEN groups drug production in the "family health" segment, which accounts for 16 percent of the group's business. In addition to these cutting-edge therapeutic activities illustrated by research partnerships with the CNRS and MIT, IPSEN specializes in France in the gastroenterology and cognitive disorders markets. In particular, it has been the originator of SMECTA and sole distributor of Dysport since 1994.

IPSEN has historically focused on Anglo-Saxon markets. Its flagship product is SMEBIOCTA, a plant-based solution for regulating gut flora.

The company is headed by David Meek.
