What Nutramedica Inc does

Nutramedica Inc. is a 100% Filipino-owned pharmaceutical and nutraceutical company founded in 2004 and headquartered at 35 Scout Lozano St., Brgy. Laging Handa, Quezon City, Philippines. The company develops, markets, and distributes a broad portfolio of branded health products across three core pharmaceutical divisions — injectables (anti-infectives, haemostatics, gastrointestinal antispasmodics, corticosteroids), pediatric formulations (antibiotics, vitamins, respiratory and gastrointestinal syrups), and adult oral products (antibiotics, NSAIDs, PPIs, multivitamins, hematinics, B-complex) — together with a consumer wellness line of food supplements (COMPLEVIT PLUS, ESTAMIN CAPSULE, LactoZinc, NUTRAVIT GOLD) and personal care (ENFACARE Skin Protection Cream). Its technology stack centers on formulation development that combines natural ingredients with pharmaceutical compounding, anchored in Good Manufacturing Practices rather than proprietary software or digital platforms.

The business model is built on one-time product sales through an extensive nationwide distributor network of healthcare partners, supported by direct-to-consumer listings on Shopee and Lazada e-commerce marketplaces and content marketing via the company's blog/demos. Distribution operates through dedicated pharmaceutical and cosmetics divisions, with a formal partner onboarding program that requires regulatory documentation (SEC, DTI, FDA, BIR) from distributors and suppliers.

Under President and CEO Sheila Mae Velilla, Nutramedica evolved from a pharmaceutical distributor into a branded product developer, peaking commercially with the 2010 launch of Novuhair (a hair-loss remedy later divested to another local company in 2018) and the CocoZen virgin coconut oil line which won a Philippine Coconut Authority award in 2005. Today, the 21-person operation focuses on science-based product extensions in the nutraceutical and cosmeceutical categories for the Philippine domestic market.
