Ensuring high quality products enabling all Australians to live well and age well.

As a cornerstone of Mundipharma’s philosophy and practice, Quality Use of Medicines (QUM) is embedded across every aspect of our business.

Patients come first in everything we do. We have created a single patient focus across the organisation to ensure the best outcome for individuals, communities and the health system as a whole. Our educational programs provide valuable, objective information for healthcare professionals to choose the best available option for their patients when prescribing. We have established the culture and conditions for all our employees to deliver the highest standard of service and information, guiding healthcare practitioners on how to use our products safely and effectively. We also work with law enforcement and government authorities to help make sure our products remain available for appropriate medical use.

As part of our commitment to QUM, Mundipharma has been sponsoring two QUM awards in the area of pain management for years.

Since 2010, we have been sponsoring the Pharmaceutical Society of Australia (PSA) QUM in Pain Management Award. In 2015, Karalyn Huxhagen won for her work of integrating care across the health team and targeting patient self-management.

Through the Australian College of Nurse Practitioners (ACNP), Mundipharma sponsors another QUM in Pain Management Award. In 2015, Melanie Proper stood out as the winner for the major role she played in setting up an innovative program ensuring postoperative patients have access to the care and analgesia they need, thereby avoiding some of the chronic pain issues that can be developed after discharge.
