Secret Keys to Social-Media Policies for Rx Firms (draft seeking your comments)

So we've all seen the stupid things well-intentioned marketers and attorneys are doing, and the more outrageous things they're inadvertently doing by NOT facing up to socia-media.

Well I contend that we will see a DDMAC/FDA guidelines about the same time we see full electronic medical records. Don't hold your breath, and the world can't wait.

So I've written up the basics.
Got feedback? Bring it on. I probably need to tame down the similes, but I couldn't resist.

Highlights from “Social Media Marketing in Pharma: What Works in Canada”

In light of this week's FDA public hearing regarding the use of social media by the U.S. pharmaceutical industry, I thought I would share some of the social media activities within the Canadian pharma industry. Both countries have very different guidelines and regulations, but we can all learn from one another.

The Pharmaceutical Advertising Advisory Board (PAAB) recently held 3 sessions of a workshop called “Social Media Marketing in Pharma: What Works in Canada”. Originally, only one session… Continue

Most-Critical Pharmaceutical Social-Media Resources

What are the must-read social-media articles and blogs for pharmaceutical marketers? I began to pull together some of my favorites, but began to get ill rereading about the same case studies... and cutting through nonsense.

Here's my start.
If this already exists, please place a link. I'm only doing this because I'm tired of Googling everytime I need to cite some of this.… Continue

Welcome to Social Pharmer!

The idea for this network was born out of a roundtable discussion at the 2008 Digital Pharma conference (Princeton, NJ).

We - the attendees - realized that ironically, while we were all involved or highly interested in social media, we tended to work in silos and did not have a common forum for learning, sharing, and/or discussing the issues of social media in the highly regulated industry of pharmaceuticals and healthcare. Hence, I decided to form this community and take advantage of the very thing that drives our passions -- social media.

Welcome to Social Pharmer -- Sowing Seeds of Social Media in Pharma and Healthcare.
