EXPAND The History From a Local Pharmacist to Pharmaceutical Company Herbert Falk studied Pharmacy in late 1940’s in Freiburg. First, he completed the then compulsory two-year practice in his father’s, Emil Falk, Herdern Pharmacy. In 1955, after the studies and his doctorate in Pharmacy, he started working as a pharmacist and later took over his father’s pharmacy. There he began to make his own cardiovascular drugs, and sold these initially in his pharmacy alone, but with time he started supplying other pharmacies in and around Freiburg. At the same time he studied medicine, completing his dissertation in 1959. Encouraged by his initial success with cardiovascular drugs, Dr Falk founded his own company, Remefa GmbH & Co KG in 1960. The company name was an abbreviation of Remedia (Latin for remedy), and Falk. From 1963 the company traded under the name Dr Falk Arzneimittel GmbH & Co KG, and from 1989 as Dr. Falk Pharma GmbH.
