Joining him is Anne Marie Carullo as senior sales director. She previously served as sales director in Warner Chilcott’s dermatology and women’s health care divisions. “I’m personally very excited about the opportunity to build Mayne Pharma in the United States,” Cross said. “We now have a diversified business across contract services and generic and branded pharmaceutical products, all of which provide a solid platform for growth moving forward.” Doryx, a tetracycline- About Mayne Pharma in the United States Mayne Pharma’s U.S. operations consist of three main business divisions that focus on contract pharmaceutical services and the development and manufacturing of branded and generic pharmaceutical products.
