    What you will find in this special report(continued)

    The information in this report is supplied by the companies. This document provides information on 500product sales entries representing about 100 companies. Some products that generate enough salesto make the top 500 list are not represented in these charts due to the unavailability of published salesdata. For instance, certain companies publish sales information for only billion-dollar brands, or for onlytheir top 10 or 20 drugs, etc. Certain companies do not publish any product sales data.

    The data are sorted and presented in three formats: by the highest product 2007 global sales, by thecompanies that report sales for these products, and by the primary disease/medical use that eachproduct treats.

    Some medicines are represented more than once in the Company chart because their sales are reportedseparately by more than one company due to joint promotion, joint marketing, or other types of alliancesand deals.
