Some critics suggest that even pharma-sponsored disease awareness campaigns are forms of disease mongering. Pharma Marketing News recently hosted a live podcast interview of two experts in this area and this article summarizes this lively point-counterpoint discussion. <\/p>\n<p> Topics and questions covered include: <\/p>\n<ul type=\"DISC\">\n<li>Defining Disease Mongering <\/li>\n<li>Is It a Legitimate Issue? <\/li>\n<li>HCP Co-conspirators <\/li>\n<li>Patient Advocate Co-conspirators <\/li>\n<li>RLS Foundation&#8217;s Ties to GSK <\/li>\n<li>Does DTC Foster &#8220;Disease Mongering?&#8221; <\/li>\n<li>Disease Awareness or Disease Mongering? <\/li>\n<li>Effect on Industry Reputation <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>   <b>Order the Full Article Reprint &#8211; $9.95<\/b>        <\/p>\n<p><strong>Innerstate: The First Disease Awareness Documentary Film<\/strong>  <\/p>\n<p> Innerstate is a disease awareness full-length documentary film produced by Centocor, which produces and markets biologics for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), Crohn&#8217;s disease, and psoriasis &#8212; the three conditions described in the film.
