Pharmaceutical companies play a big role in developing medications for chronic illnesses, but are they doing enough to support patients beyond just providing drugs? Many believe that these companies could do more: such as offering better patient education, affordability and accessibility programs, or investing more in research for rare and overlooked conditions. Here in the US, where drug prices are often high and access is determined by insurance companies, many feel that pharmaceutical companies focus more on profits than on patient care. 💊
Do you think pharmaceutical companies are doing enough to support patients? What additional support would make a difference in your life?
