Fundamentally, there must always be confidence that prescription decisions are made on an ethical and patient-focused basis. In these interactions, it is essential that governments, the healthcare community and patients are confident that pharmaceutical companies, wherever they operate in the world, act in an ethical and professional manner.

The IFPMA Code of Practice is a tangible example of the research-based pharmaceutical industry’s commitment to making a strong contribution to global public health while adhering to the highest standard of practice.
