Global Patient Advocacy Engagement
We believe in the value of our relationships with patient organizations.
We work to develop a deeper understanding of patient needs, and integrate that insight throughout our organization. In this way, we create transparent partnerships that are central to our work of supporting patients and their caregivers on the journey to improved health and happy lives.Teva Guiding Principles for Patient Organization Engagement
