Repackager sees $3 billion market
American Druggist 1987 Sep; 196:62, 64

Abstract:

Repackaged drug sales predictions by Allscrips Pharmaceuticals Inc., a pharmaceutical repackager, are presented. The size of the market may reach $3 billion over the next 5 yr. Target markets include hospital emergency rooms, clinics, group practices and individual general practitioners. It was discovered through surveys and via contacts that dispensing physicians want to improve the quality of the practice, not maximize income.
