What is AbbVie’s experience in dermatology?

AbbVie is a research-based biopharmaceutical company whose mission is to provide professionals with innovative solutions that address complex health problems and improve people’s lives.

AbbVie focuses its efforts on six areas of knowledge that encompass some of today’s most important healthcare challenges: immunology, aesthetics, virology, hemato-oncology, neurosciences and ophthalmology.

One of the areas where AbbVie has demonstrated its commitment to research, science and the continuous search for solutions through innovation to improve the quality of life for patients is the area of ??immunology, specifically dermatology, where we have enormous experience worldwide since 2003.

At AbbVie, for two decades we have been firmly committed to improving the lives of people with chronic inflammatory skin diseases, such as psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, hidradenitis suppurativa or atopic dermatitis. All these diseases affect, as a whole, more than one and a half million people in Spain and have a great impact on the quality of life of patients, affecting them not only physically but also emotionally; since they influence their leisure activities, their social, partner, work and school relationships. In fact, many of these patients experience greater psychological stress than other people and may experience anxiety, depression and even suicidal ideation in acute outbreaks.
