Shares of Fosun Pharma (HKG:2196, SHA:600196) soared over 5% on Thursday, after the company's subsidiary received approval from China's medical regulator for a new anti-anxiety drug. The approval could provide a significant boost to Fosun Pharma's product portfolio and future revenue prospects.

The drug, venlafaxine hydrochloride sustained-release tablets, has been approved for the treatment of depression, including depression with anxiety, and general anxiety disorder. This approval marks an important milestone for the company as it looks to expand its presence in the lucrative Chinese pharmaceutical market.

The approval of the new anti-anxiety drug is particularly significant given the growing prevalence of mental health issues in China.

Fosun Pharma's new offering could position the company to capture a significant share of this growing market.
