Later on, the laboratory was further developed into an establishment of pharmaceutical products that was named PROFARMA. The first pharmaceutical preparations produced were liquid extracts (fluids) and dry extracts (siccum) which were then used by pharmacists allover Albania to prepare (ex tempera) Galenic preparations such as syrups, suppositories, solutions, etc.
