Growth Hormone Norditropin Approved In Denmark

BAGSVAERD, DENMARK -- March 23, 1999 -- Novo Nordisk A/S has received
approval from the Danish health authorities (Laegemiddelstyrelsen) for Norditropin(R)
SimpleXx(TM) (somatropin [rDNA origin] for injection) the company's liquid growth
hormone preparation.

This is the first approval of Norditropin SimpleXx and the first approval of a liquid
growth hormone product outside the US.

Norditropin SimpleXx will be launched together with a newly developed pen system --
NordiPen(TM) to make daily injections even more convenient.

The Danish approval is expected to be followed by a formal European Union (EU)
approval and launch in a number of European countries during 1999. The product was
filed in Japan in February and US filing is expected later this year.
