About Farminform

Farminform originated as a data collective of pharmaceutical manufacturers and wholesaler distributors. It is a data trust financed entirely by the users of the information. As part of their new healthcare data model development, Farminform is investing in sustainable cooperation with organizations that help healthcare providers use medicines as appropriately and efficiently as possible to help their patients.
Essential information for the pharmaceutical industry and healthcare providers
Farminform provides its users with key data, including usage and logistical information on more than 20,000 medicines. Public bodies such as the government use Farminform data to monitor and adjust for things like the effect of national medicine policy.
