Medulla Communications, a specialist healthcare advertising agency, leads the Indian medal tally at The Rx Club Show (http://www.therxclub.com) – one of the most prestigious international awards for creativity in healthcare advertising. This includes a Gold and a Silver, made more precious by the fact that only 8 Golds and 14 Silvers were awarded at this 2014 edition of the Awards. In fact, Indian agencies have come of age in global healthcare advertising, with a total Gold and Silver tally of 5 out of the 22 awarded this year.

 

The Gold was won on work done for Janssen Pharmaceuticals’ brand Stugeron, used in vertigo treatment (http://www.therxclub.com/rx_current.php?award=g&selcat), while the Silver was won on a campaign developed for Johnson & Johnson’s brand, Nicorette (http://www.therxclub.com/rx_current.php?award=s&selcat).

 

The other big winners at The Rx Club Show 2014 from across the world have been Ogilvy Common Health, Publicis, FCB Health, Havas, and Digitas Health among others. Founded in 1986, The Rx Club Show has grown to become an international icon in the healthcare industry.
