FeraMAX® Named #1 Recommended Iron Supplement in Canada by Pharmacists and Physicians for Seventh Consecutive Year
02 May 2022 - 10:00PM
BioSyent Inc. (“BioSyent”, TSX Venture: RX) is pleased to announce
that for the seventh consecutive year, FeraMAX® is the #1
recommended iron supplement brand in Canada based on a national
survey of Canadian pharmacists and physicians.1
This annual survey was conducted by EnsembleIQ,
Research, Insights and Innovation team and the following
publications and websites: Pharmacy Practice + Business, The
Medical Post, Profession Santé, CanadianHealthcareNetwork.ca, and
ProfessionSanté.ca. This was an online survey fielded from October
2021 to January 2022 with Canadian retail pharmacists and Canadian
physicians. 1,585 pharmacists (including 519 from Québec) and 552
physicians (including 225 from Québec) completed the surveys.
2021 marked the first full year following the
launch of FeraMAX® Pd Therapeutic 150 in the patented
Polydextrose-Iron Complex (“PDIC”) formulation in November 2020. In
October 2021, FeraMAX® Pd Powder 15 for children was introduced
based upon the same patented PDIC formulation.
The annual Survey on OTC Counselling and
Recommendations is an important industry indicator which tracks
pharmacist and physician counselling patterns for OTC products in
Canada. Pharmacists and physicians play important roles in
supporting patient care and product selection.
“This is a significant accomplishment in an
environment where both healthcare professionals and patients have
been navigating through a changing healthcare system,” commented
René Goehrum, President and CEO of BioSyent. “We appreciate that
FeraMAX® continues to be a trusted and reliable choice among
Canadian healthcare professionals. We have always maintained a
close partnership with these professionals through education
programs and various patient initiatives. We will continue to
support healthcare professionals in helping their patients take
charge of their iron health through our existing and future
pipeline of FeraMAX® products.”
