Find Drug Sales Data in Fulltext Market Research Reports?

TOPIC: Often companies need to locate data on sales of specific brand-name drugs. Dialog contains a wealth of sources for finding sales information on pharmaceutical products. These sources include business trade literature, company reports, country reports, analysts’ reports, and market research reports. Many of these sources contain tabular data.

Fulltext market research reports, with in-depth, expert analysis, include Business Insights (File 759), Datamonitor Market Research (File 761) and BCC Market Research (File 764), in the Market Research Reports OneSearch category, MARKETFU. In addition, key trade literature databases, with excellent indexing and special features, include TableBase (File 93), Business & Industry (File 9) and Gale Group PROMT® (File 16). See “How Do I Find Sales of Brand-Name Drugs in the Trade Literature?

  Pfizer's marketed products are shown in [Graphic]. 65% 
of Pfizer's cardiovascular sales in  2005 were from  
Lipitor  (atorvastatin), with sales  of over $12.8bn, an 
increase of 6.7% from the  previous year. Pfizer also saw 
extremely high growth of over 300% in  2005 for Caduet 
(combination Lipitor  and  Norvasc), which is an attempt 
to prevent revenue loss prior to the patent  expiry of 
Norvasc and  Lipitor  in 2007 and 2010, respectively. 
Generic  competition for Norvasc and  Lipitor  are 
expected to be vast as they currently  have a wide 
patient potential, and thus Pfizer's sales will be 
heavily impacted. Pfizer had  intended to launch an 
additional dyslipidemic, torcetrapib, in combination with  
Lipitor as a further  revenue protection strategy ahead 
of  Lipitor's patent expiry.

However,  torcetrapib, which was in phase III clinical
