The company operates around the clock from West Columbia, South Carolina, supported by automated systems, disciplined execution, and a culture centered on quality to ensure consistent performance. Its customer base includes hospitals, pharmacies, long-term care facilities, home care providers, and mail-order pharmacies, and its respiratory portfolio supports patients living with asthma and COPD. In January 2024, Nephron announced a collaboration with NRx Pharmaceuticals to develop a modern ketamine formulation that is single-use and designed to deter diversion and tampering. The organization positions itself as a mid-sized supplier of sterile medications within the broader pharmaceutical manufacturing industry, offering capabilities in generic products and contract manufacturing for sterile drug products.
