Find Drug Sales Data by Class in Pharmaceutical Company Files?
TOPIC: Pharmaceutical company reports on Dialog provide key sales data. IMS Company Profiles (Files 449/984*) from IMS Health, and ESPICOM Pharmaceutical and Medical Company Profiles (File 510), are examples.
IMS Company Profiles examines annually the internal make-up of key pharmaceutical companies worldwide, including generic, biotechnology and drug-delivery companies. Each profile analyzes the critical components of a pharmaceutical company, providing a clear assessment of the relative strengths and weaknesses of a company's business strategy. A search for a company yields one profile comprised of several records, one or more for each section. Sections are identified in the SE= field, e.g., SE=FINANCIAL DATA: THERAPY CLASS.
ESPICOM Pharmaceutical and Medical Company Profiles contains highly detailed, full-text analyses of the world’s leading pharmaceutical companies. Each company profile is compiled into a report. Each record is a section or page from a report. Typical applications for File 510 include: tracking product introductions, following new technologies, obtaining annual sales figures by region, monitoring product introductions, watching R&D and development cycles, and monitoring approvals and clearances.
In this application we'll conduct the search in IMS Company Profiles. A search strategy for the other database is also shown below.
