UBM Medica's Drug Topics Ranked #1 Among Retail Pharmacists
ISELIN, N.J., May 7, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- UBM Medica today announced that Drug Topics is the most thoroughly read resource among retail pharmacists, according to the recently released 2015 Kantar Media Pharmacy Readership study.
Each year, Kantar Media measures the frequency and thoroughness with which pharmacists are reading print and digital publications relevant to their field. To assess thoroughness of read for each publication (Average Page Exposures), survey participants are asked to indicate how they read a publication – "cover to cover," "articles of interest," etc. For readers, this speaks to compelling content and relevancy to their profession. For advertisers, it indicates the likeliness of their ad being seen by a reader.
According to the 2015 study, Drug Topics is ranked:
- #1 in Average Page Exposures among retail pharmacists1
- #1 in Average Page Exposures among retail pharmacy chains2
- #1 in Average Page Exposures among owners and managers at retail pharmacies3
- #1 in Cover-to-Cover readership among retail pharmacy publications4
- #1 in High Readers among retail pharmacists5
"For nearly 160 years, pharmacists have turned to Drug Topics to help navigate the changing healthcare landscape and improve outcomes for patients," said Mike Weiss, group publisher of Drug Topics. "These results demonstrate that retail pharmacists consider Drug Topics to be their go-to resource for the information they need, when they need it."
Drug Topics is part of UBM Medica – a UBM Life Sciences business. For more information, visit www.DrugTopics.com.
