Pharma Industry News Update<\/b>: 2 February 2016<\/p>\n\n

Digitally “Savvy” Women Pharma Pioneers<\/b><\/a> Show Support!<\/i>
Over the years Pharmaguy has had the pleasure of meeting and working with many very smart, talented, and interesting people in the pharmaceutical industry. He has been especially honored to meet and document the work of drug industry digital “pioneers” who have lead the way in the use of social media, digital, and\/or mobile for marketing, research, patient support, or corporate communications purposes. \u00a0 A segment that has not received enough attention from Pharmaguy and others is pharma women pioneers, digital or otherwise. To rectify that, Pharmaguy has put together a personal list of “Digitally Savvy Women Pharma Pioneers.”

Pharma and Snapchat<\/a><\/b> Is It Right for Pharma Marketing?<\/em>
The new kid on the social media block is SnapChat, a mystery to almost everyone over the age of 30, but beloved by millennials. <\/p>\n

Snapchat has matured into a giant of social media delivering over 6 billion video views a day at the back end of last year. The network boasts the fastest growing user base, 57 percent in 2014, with up to 65 percent of those users contributing content on a daily basis. <\/p>\n

Does that make it right for Pharma marketing?
It also taps into Pharma’s FOFDAR (fear of FDA regulations). If the content disappears in 24 hours, the chances of the FDA seeing it and documenting violations is minimized. But…<\/p>\n

Pharma and Instagram<\/a><\/b> Major\u00a0Companies\u00a0Embrace It for Promotion & Patient Engagement <\/i>
Jennifer Starr, writing on the Intouch Solutions blog, shares five reasons she believes pharmas should take a new look at Instagram.\u00a0<\/em>
<\/em> “One reason stands out in my mind,” says PharmaGuy. “Her agency\u00a0teamed up with Rebeca Bechily, Group Marketing Manager at Baxalta, to take their hemophilia program to instagram.” <\/em>More on that here:\u00a0http:\/\/sco.lt\/5Qghpx<\/a> <\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Visual content is still on the rise<\/li>\n
  2. Facebook reach is falling<\/li>\n
  3. New moderation capabilities:\u00a0<\/li>\n
  4. Analytics<\/li>\n
  5. Pharma is already testing the waters<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    You might be surprised to learn that even some major pharmaceutical companies have embraced Instagram. But others stay away. Why?

    Chantix No Better Than Nicotine Patches Except…<\/a>\u00a0<\/b> When It Comes to Suicidal AERs
    In disappointing news for Pfizer, a study found that its controversial Chantix pill for quitting smoking\u00a0failed to show any benefit over nicotine patches and lozenges among people trying to kick their habit. \u00a0 “I was wondering why I’m seeing more Chantix ads on TV after a lull,” says PharmaGuy. “I guess Pfizer was trying to get as many new Rx’s as possible before these data came out.”<\/em>\u00a0
    For more information about Chantix and suicide, read “    Consumer Groups Petition FDA to Keep Black Box Warning for Pfizer’s Chantix<\/a>“.\u00a0 \u00a0 So what does the data look like?
