Due to a significant improvement in the synthesis of the active ingredient of our tetrahydrobiopterin tablets, we can again reduce the tablet prices. The extent of the reduction depends on the currency you pay in. The discrepancies between the exchange rate of the currencies will be corrected with this reduction in prices. 
The greatest reduction (up to 18%) will be for customers paying in Euro for 50 mg tablets. 

Please note that customers must pay in the currency indicated on their invoice.

Tablet Price Reductions 
March 2004

We last reduced our tablets prices in 2002. The increased efficiency of our tetrahydrobiopterin production allows us now to further reduce our prices. 
As the children increase in age and weight many patients now require more tetrahydrobiopterin each day. It may be more convenient to take 50 mg tablets instead of several 10 mg tablets. 
The  price lists are effective immediately. We would appreciate if you could forward this information to all relevant parties. Your next invoice will be automatically prepared with the new prices.
