Literally every single one of those products listed fall under their 'Consumer Segment' (see pages 7 & 8 of financial statements in original post). The entire consumer segment accounts for 18.5 per cent of their total revenue.

The remaining 81.5 per cent of their revenue comes from the sale of pharmaceuticals and medical devices.

The original post was listing the "consolidated" figures. Marketing of consumer products was not broken out separately from the consolidated figures.

The information in the pdf does not support the narrative of the original article, because of the use of consolidated figures.
