True Value of Drugs Enhanced by Proper Drug Information Supply, Gathering, and Feedback |
|
Even if a drug is an excellent product, it is of no value unless it can be
used correctly in medical treatment and serves to assist those who are suffering from disease.
Above all, drugs could determine life or death. It is of paramount importance to ensure
the proper supply of information.
The MR (with responsibility for drug information) has the important mission of communicating drug
information. The MR visits medical practitioners so that drugs are used correctly, providing and
collecting information about the safety and efficacy of drugs such as their side effects and
clinical trial results. It is the principal role of the MR to do so and to supply information
about the proper use of drugs.
We provide its MR with total support that covers a wide range of activities so that drug
information is conveyed speedily and accurately to the point of delivery of medical care. |

Company-wide Sharing of Cases Held by Individual MR |
|
The MR not only engages simply in supplying information but also considers it his/her important
duty to exchange information with medical practitioners on whether or not our drugs are truly
delivering benefit to individual patients through their course of treatment. The information
that is thus gathered at the point of delivery is shared across the company through the MR's
mobile PC. The marketing division uses the information to streamline MR activities; the R&D
division uses it to assist in new drug development.
We give total back-up support to MR activities, producing DVD showing specific and visual
examples so that the MR can always update his/her skills as an information expert.

Speedier High-tech Support for MR Information Activities |
|
We are creating an information database on pharmaceuticals. Each MR will carry a laptop that
enables him/her to access data whenever needed. The data will consist principally of drugs that
are handled by us and the database on our major products is already up and running. The system
is geared towards meeting the needs of medical establishments, with a Q&A System by Product
available, based on accumulated information that has been consolidated and analyzed.

Symposiums and Workshops Held to Relay Up-to-date Drug Information |
|
Medical technology undergoes daily advance and the same is true for drugs. Drugs are being
developed in rapid succession to help combat diseases that had been extremely difficult to treat.
It is one of the missions of drug manufacturers to relay as quickly as possible up-to-date
information about such drugs and to provide an opportunity for information exchange. We do so by
hosting a variety of workshops and lectures at local regions, in addition to satellite symposiums
and luncheon seminars in conjunction with academic conferences held in Japan. |
