OxyContin and Flector drug comparisons now available

A partnership with OSU College of Pharmacy and SAIF seeks to help prescribers make smart drug choices.

As prescription drug prescribers know, drug prices can vary significantly and price does not necessarily correlate with efficacy.

To help providers reduce costs without affecting quality of care, SAIF Corporation is partnering with Oregon State University's College of Pharmacy to conduct a targeted prescriber education program.

Using evidence-based research from the multi-state Drug Effectiveness Review Project, OSU is analyzing physician prescribing patterns and contacting physicians who may benefit from education about drug effectiveness. The recommendations are voluntary.

As they are reviewed, additional classes of drugs will be posted on the Smart Drug Choices page on this site, so be sure to check back later to learn more.
