For Patient Well-being Around the World — Advancing New and Innovative Treatment Options
Otsuka Medical Devices was founded in 2011 with a bold vision: to establish our medical device business as one of the Otsuka group’s core pillars supporting the total healthcare mission of the group — contributing to people’s health worldwide. We are now transitioning from the research and development phase to a commercialization phase, where we manufacture and distribute our products globally.
With an aging population and changing lifestyles, an ever-increasing number of patients require treatment options beyond pharmaceutical therapies alone. We are committed to pioneering innovative medical devices that provide new treatment options through a physical, device-based approach, distinct from pharmaceuticals. Furthermore, we prioritize improving patients' quality of life by developing devices that minimize physical burden and support their well-being.
In November 2023, our novel therapy, Paradise™ Ultrasound Renal Denervation system, received FDA approval as an adjunctive treatment option for the treatment of hypertension when lifestyle changes and medications have not adequately controlled a patient’s blood pressure. In the U.S., insurance coverage is gradually expanding, allowing more patients access to this therapy. In August 2025, the therapy received approval for manufacturing and marketing for the treatment of resistant hypertension from Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare. As we mark this important milestone, we are pleased to offer a new treatment option to patients with resistant hypertension in Japan, to support their journey toward a healthier future.
We continue to accelerate our efforts to contribute to the health of more patients. By leveraging advanced digital technologies and fostering collaboration across the Otsuka group, we are working to develop innovative treatment approaches.
At Otsuka Medical Devices, we continue to take on the challenges of healthcare with courage and perseverance to help patients regain their health and lead fulfilling lives.
As a proud member of the Otsuka group, a leading total healthcare company, we reaffirm our commitment to contributing to the well-being of people worldwide.
