Patients

At Ipsen, patients motivate every decision we make.

WORKING WITH PATIENTS, FOR PATIENTS

Ipsen works with patients, their families, and more than 250 patient organizations around the world at a global, regional, and national level. Our key priorities are sharing experiences. We want to guarantee that patients are truly given a seat at the table when it comes to their care and the developments that Ipsen is making. We believe this kind of close collaboration and inclusion is essential to ensure we chart the right course.  Our goal is to understand and respond to patients’ needs, helping them and their caregivers at different points throughout their experiences. At Ipsen, we believe in working together with patients, for patients.
