Descripción: Global pharmaceutical companies (GPC) with significant representation in numerous countries, often face decision challenges to ensure strategic decisions are coherent with corporate and social values. While good pharmaceutical practice requires local standards to be considered or adopted to guide decision-making, an ethical posture further demands an assessment of external factors and potential company actions (beyond mere compliance) towards social benefit. Codes of ethics or mission statements have become mainstream across companies. However, there is no common standardized processes in place to carry out these important ethical deliberations. Based on a literature review of business ethics and pharmaceutical strategic management, this work analyzes ethical approaches in weighting decision options. The dilemma of whether or not there could be a standard application of ethical principles across different countries since they abide by different societal norms, is also considered. Herein, the discussion is inextricably linked to current pharmaceutical tactics for mature product development. Decision pathways supported by an ethical assessment and appraisal are analyzed using as an example a potential strategic switch from prescription to over the counter (Rx to OTC) status for a drug in different countries. Lastly, it is emphasized that this does not represent a moral judgement of current norms; the specific focus is on how the process could be improved for decision-making.
