What We Do:
We prioritize patient health and safety in every decision we make.
Why It Matters:
Patients rely on our innovative medicines. Acting with integrity safeguards their trust and supports our mission.
How We Do It:
Each of us plays a role in helping patients through their care journey. We ask what’s best for the patient, share honest and balanced information, and follow sound scientific and quality standards. We respect the integrity of the healthcare provider-patient relationship.

The Patient Community
We provide healthcare professionals with clear and timely information about our products, ensuring they and their patients understand both the benefits and the risks. We listen to patients and patient advocacy groups with respect and consider their feedback to improve our work. By collaborating with doctors, patient advocacy groups, insurers, and lawmakers, we facilitate patients getting access to the medicines they need—while following all laws and ethical standards.
The Healthcare Community
We never offer or give anything of value to get someone to buy or recommend our products. We pay fair market value for services and are transparent about what we spend. We follow all rules that apply to the way we work with others in healthcare.
What do we mean by “healthcare community members”?
Any person or entity in a position to purchase, prescribe, administer, recommend, or arrange for the purchase, sale, or formulary placement of an Amgen product. This includes physicians, nurses, office practice managers, pharmacists, wholesalers, customers, professional organizations, patients, and patient advocacy groups.
- Values in Action:
A physician I work with asked me if I could hand out brochures about his practice and background to other healthcare professionals I know. I don’t want to damage the relationship, but I knew I couldn’t promote his services. I explained that I’m not allowed to market for outside providers, even if I trust them. It was the right thing to do—and it helped keep our interaction professional and fair.
