Pharma
- 140 character limit does not allow for ISI, legal
disclaimers, etc.
- Requires constant monitoring/support and quick
responses to be relevant
- Extremely competitive for visibility, but easy to track
metrics/links, etc.
- Needs workflow, AE/escalation plan, and editorial plan
to be effective
- Technical updates to Twitter platform may impact profile
page layout/appearance

“driver” of traffic to other digital/web properties
+ Extremely conversational – acts as a powerful
“backchannel” for events
+ Hashtags allow for topical differentiation and finding/
joining memes

9. • The objective of the live tweetchat were two-fold—AstraZeneca
wanted to:
– Raise awareness of its Prescription Assistance Program (PAP)
– Interact with patients, healthcare professionals and industry
advocates about the best ways to promote AZ&Me.
• During the time allotted to the live chat, there were nearly 400
tweets using the #RxSave hashtag. Even after the close of the
event, tweeters continued to use the hashtag.
• Four days later, there were more than 1,000 tweets from more
than 200 different people that used the hashtag. AstraZeneca
also gained 73 Twitter followers the day of the chat—and this
number has steadily increased.

“Pharma
Regs”
Reminder Ads
Promoted Tweets (and URLs) containing the name of the drug are permitted with the following restrictions:
• Cannot reference the condition or disease the drug treats. May use phrases such as ‘learn about treatment here,’ or ‘get more from your doctor’
• Must reference both the brand and generic drug names
• The ad itself does not need to provide Fair Balance info as it does not discuss the condition it treats or its efficacy
• The Promoted Tweets can lead back to the manufacturer’s website
• These ads are not considered appropriate (and, therefore, cannot be promoted) for drugs that come with serious health warnings (Boxed Warnings), such as death or
serious injury
Help-Seeking Ads
Promoted Tweets (and URLs) containing information about a condition or disease, and directing users to more information, are permitted with the following restrictions:
• Cannot reference the drug or treatment(s). May use phrases such as ‘ask your healthcare provider for more info’, ‘get help’ (the disease or condition may also be
mentioned: ‘cholesterol facts and info’)
• Cannot use a branded drug @username. For example, Crestor may not promote tweets using the @crestor handle. They may, however, use something like
@cholesterol where the content of their tweets relates to education about lowering cholesterol. In the US (but not Canada) they can use the pharmaceutical
manufacturer’s brand such as @AstraZeneca
• Cannot include a branded drug name display URL in their bio or the ad itself. For example, Crestor may not point users directly to the Crestor.com site. They may,
however, use a non-branded display URL such as www.getcholesterolinfo.com that redirects to crestor.com, or www.mymstreatment.com redirects
to www.tysabri.com
• In the US (but not Canada) they can include the drug company’s name, provided there is no reference to the drug

The company decided that it would do something in
social media every day rather than just occasionally:
The company eventually set up a war room to
figure out what was meaningful to its followers --
who include some 32 million individuals on
Facebook and about 80,000 on Twitter.
So when the lights went out at the New Orleans Super
Dome during the Ravens v. 49ers game, Oreo had a
well-oiled machine in place that was used to
interacting live in social media every day.
