Actavis has five manufacturing sites for solid, liquid, and semi-solid dosage forms in the United States:

  • Totowa, NJ: Actavis has two solid-oral dose manufacturing facilities in Totowa, in Little Falls and at Riverview Drive, in addition to a packaging facility at Taft Road.

The Company plans to transfer production of the Little Falls facility to the Riverview facility. The transfer is expected to be completed in 2009.
