What to Consider When Conducting Patient Research in Saudi Arabia

The need to understand the patient as a key stakeholder is now recognized by pharma across the globe.


Conducting market research with patients in any market can be a challenge, requiring sensitivity and consideration for language, culture, religion, as well as for other emotional, behavioural and environmental factors that might impact patients’ behaviour.
