The definition of a new product is a product that has been launched in the last 2 years. It is in accordance with PT Kalbe Farma’s commitment to always innovate, launch (and to make it a success) new products.
Dr. Martinus Zega, Mediflex’s Product Manager affirmed that one of the keys that support the recognition of this 75gr cream is because the product is the first product in Indonesia that contains glucosamine. Another thing is because the packaging is designed to be as attractive as possible; hence, patients may know the indications or benefits of the cream. The point is still not common on medications sold as ethical drugs.
