  • The money behind vaccines

    The money behind vaccines

    Vaccines are one of the biggest successes of modern medicine. They save up to 3 million people worldwide every year. From research and discovery to product development, it can cost up to a billion dollars to make one vaccine, and that process — can last up to 15 years. During the past few decades the number of companies producing vaccines has dwindled to just a handful. The four big drug companies that now dominate the market are Merck, Pfizer, Sanofi Pasteur and GlaxoSmithKline.

    GlaxoSmithKline revamps incentives for sales representatives

    GlaxoSmithKline is to reintroduce performance-based bonuses linked to the number of prescriptions written for its medicines, reversing a company ban on the practice following a bribery scandal in the US. The UK drugmaker said on Thursday that the return to incentives based on the number of prescriptions issued for its medicines in part reflected its growing portfolio of cancer drugs. GSK said that after a review of rival drugmakers’ policies on incentives, a return to performance-based bonuses would mean GSK was “more competitive when it comes to recruiting, motivating and retaining sales representatives and sales management with the right levels of expertise and experience”.

    GSK and Novartis liniment marketing misled Australian consumers - court

    The Australian subsidiaries of British drugmaker GlaxoSmithKline and Swiss drugmaker Novartis misled customers and broke the law by promoting identical liniments as though they could treat specific ills, an Australian court found on Friday. The court said the companies admitted marketing Voltaren Osteo Gel as a treatment for osteoarthritis-related pain when its ingredients were the same as a cheaper Voltaren product, Emulgel. Judge Robert Bromwich said in a written decision that it was part of a "deliberate and considered marketing strategy".
