Created in 1929 under the name of Laboratoires Beaufour, the activities of IPSEN (Institut des Produits de Synthèse et d'Extraction Naturelle) have historically been based on natural plant-based medicines.this is illustrated by the success of Romarene, a medicine for digestive disorders made from Rosemary extracts, since the group's creation.
IPSEN groups the production of medicines under the "family health" segment, which accounts for 16% of the group's activity. In addition to its cutting-edge therapeutic activities, illustrated by its research partnerships with the CNRS and MIT, IPSEN is specialized in France in the gastroenterology and cognitive disorders markets. It is notably the creator of SMECTA and the sole distributor of Dysport since 1994.
IPSEN has historically focused on the Anglo-Saxon markets. Its flagship herbal product is SMEBIOCTA, a herbal solution to regulate intestinal flora.
The company is headed by David Meek.
