Relationships with Healthcare Professionals


The complex endeavor of developing and bringing novel treatment options to patients living with difficult-to-treat or rare conditions requires a great deal of both vision and insight. It is a process of discovery and of collaboration. And it involves not only finding the right answers, but asking the right questions.

At Cephalon, we recognize that our mission is one we cannot successfully achieve alone. We rely on healthcare professionals around the world for their expertise in the understanding of disease and patient care. They play a vital role in assuring that patients have access to the medications they need and that those medications are used correctly. Healthcare professionals need the latest, most accurate scientific information available regarding our products to assure they are used in a manner that achieves the fullest therapeutic benefit and maintains patient safety.

Cephalon fully supports transparency in our relationships with healthcare professionals, which we hope will foster a better understanding of the critical role these vital relationships play in developing and bringing new medicines to market and in addressing the needs of patients. Therefore, beginning in 2010, Cephalon began to make the financial nature of our relationships with healthcare professionals transparent to the public.
