Looking for pharmaceutical ads with specific visuals?

A big part of what AdPharm was created for is to provide pharmaceutical advertising industry people with the ability to conduct searches using keywords (or tags) on a wide range of print, TV and web advertisements. The sample shown here is just a portion of the “stomach“-related ads you can find in AdPharm’s visual database. We chose the word “stomach” simply for the sake of the demonstration. It goes without saying that you can conduct a search with any other word(s) such as: brain, arm, limb, child, parent, heart, CV system, cells, skin, animal, etc…

In a similar fashion to searching for stock images on the Web, the search results depend on which keywords are used. If it’s a combination of keywords vs. a single keyword, the search results may vary drastically. It all depends on what you are looking for. For example, to get the results shown above, the search words we used were “stomach” and “belly” (as seen on the inset image). We wanted to be sure to have a wide variety of ads, so we used the “OR” condition to get ads that had either one of the two words. Choosing the condition “AND” would have narrowed down the results to ads that had both words in their tags.

We could have checked all the terms in the list (Title, Description, Tags and Brand name) but that would also have given us results that did not necessarily have a stomach or belly in the visual portion of the ad. For instance, an ad for Midol, which is for stomach cramps would not necessarily show a stomach but it would have the word Stomach in its description, as it is part of the indication for that product.

So if you are looking to create a new ad for your pharma brand or your client’s, try a search on AdPharm. There you can find out what’s been already done…
