At Lilly, we are dedicated to discovering and developing innovative products that improve the health and well-being of people around the world. By listening to patients, we better understand their needs, including the value they expect from our products and services.
Our responsibilities to patients include:
- Working within our sphere of influence and cooperatively across sectors to promote access to medicines, including sponsoring patient assistance programs.
- Protecting the safety of patients who use our products throughout the research and development process and after the medicines are on the market.
- Improving patient outcomes: We know that positive patient outcomes are about more than just medicine. At Lilly, we provide resources to help people stay healthy and participate effectively in managing their care for diseases in our areas of specialty.
- Conducting research ethically Since patients are both participants in the R&D process and the ultimate customers for our products, we consider a variety of factors in deciding which products to develop and how we develop them.
