WOBURN, Mass., April 30 /PRNewswire/ -- AstraZeneca, Eli Lilly and Rx Canada received top honors at the 2008 Strategic Patient Adherence (SPA) Awards. Rx Canada and their client (AstraZeneca Canada), the first international award winners, received awards for the Best Branded Compliance Program. The Health Inform(R) Programs for Crestor, Symbicort and Nexium medications were lauded for measurement of each program's effectiveness. "I really liked the way in which they measured and published their results," said Robert Nauman, BioPharma Advisors and a judge for the SPA awards. Rx Canada and their client (Eli Lilly Canada) received an innovation award for the Evista Inner Strength Program which ensured that pharmacists followed up with patients 2 weeks after their first intervention. Finally, AstraZeneca received an innovation award for the SERV(TM) Program, which is a platform that allows AZ brands to leverage the sales force to provide messages, tools and programs to physicians toward enhancing medication adherence in their patients.
