Brands covered

Packed with physician insight into seven of the leading asthma/COPD brands:

Top Takeaways
  • Best in areas that matter most: All teams' overall performance is better in the categories ranked of highest importance to physicians
  • Inconsistent performance: 2 products rank highly for performance and satisfaction, but one of them slips to 7th place for ranking on overall interaction quality.
  • Physicians think there's more room for improvement: In the areas of high importance EU5 teams fail to perform as well as the US equivalents.
  • Reputations vary considerably: Top team scores double the points of lowest teams
  • Only 1 product has a fully positive profile in competitive evaluation: Detailed comparisons highlight one brand with results above neutral for all categories.
  • Physicians satisfied with important medical affairs services overall: 2 brands lead the way in most categories.
