Brand and Specialty
A trusted partner in the commercialization journey
Product success depends on more than approval
and availability. Often it hinges on affordability, or adherence, or prescriber
awareness, or a combination of dozens of other factors. AmerisourceBergen understands
this and has spent decades partnering with brand and specialty manufacturers to
optimize each stage—and each decision—along the product lifecycle. Our
Signature® commercialization solutions are tailored to the needs of each product to
maximize results. It’s no wonder we’ve played a role in the success of
virtually every specialty product over the past 20 years.
