The pharma industry’s total direct-to-consumer expenditure decreased in 2010 compared to the previous year. The most notable decline in DTC expenditure occurred in the television segment, and outdoor spending also was down versus 2009. Increased DTC spending in the areas of magazine, newspaper, and radio were not enough to offset the double-digit drop-off in TV expenditure.
