would like to have a list of pharmaceutical laboratories in Puerto
Rico. List must include, name of laboratory, full address, website,
tel, fax, etc. If possible, I would like to have an email address as
well as any contact information for person in charge for the quality
control laboratory.

Request for Question Clarification by pafalafa-ga on 29 Dec 2005 12:39 PST

fertico,

Most databases that identify large lists of pharma companies simply
include the company name and adress, and perhaps phone.

To get all the details you are asking for would probably cost about
$25 per company to pull together!

You might want to consider scaling-back your request.  

I have a database of about 200 pharma and medical device companies in
PR, but it is largely company name and address information, eg:


ABBOTT DIAGNOSTICS MFG., INC.	
CARR 2 KM 58	
BARCELONETA, PR	
847-937-7988 	
MR. EDWARD ROLES	


The phone number (and probably the contact person) are for Abbot HQ in
Illinois, rather than the PR facility.


Let me know your thoughts on this.

Clarification of Question by fertico-ga on 29 Dec 2005 12:42 PST

The list as you have shown it is fine (i.e. without actual names).
However, if you can separate in this list the medical device companies
from the pharmaceutical companies it would be ideal. I have increased
the price for this question.

fertico-ga,

Thanks for getting back to me.

The list of almost 300 medical companies in Puerto Rico, which I
extracted from FDA files of registered companies at www.fda.gov.  The
list can be downloaded here:


http://s54.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3F07RKHWGVNNA2B1LF6FW488T7


The list is in spreadsheet format.  Please save it to your local
system, as the above link is not permanent.

The first 208 companies on the list are those that are pharma
companies, to the best of my knowledge (based on my familiarity with
the industry, but I can't promise 100% accuracy for the list).  The
remaining companies are medical equipment suppliers.

For the sake of convenience, here are the 208 company names of pharma

I trust this information fully meets your needs.

know by posting a Request for Clarification, and I'm at your service.

All the best for the New Year,

Request for Answer Clarification by fertico-ga on 02 Jan 2006 12:26 PST

This list contains a mix of businesses such as suppliers of dental
products, disposable consumer products, medical devices, optical
products, etc. My request was specifically for pharmaceutical
companies. These companies engage in the production of pharmaceutical
products (not medical devices)normally in dosage forms such as
tablets, softgels, etc. Since each of these firms must have a quality
control laboratory, I am interested in having their contact
information which I will then use to contact personnel at the quality
control laboratory. Kindly make an attempt at locating the
aforementioned. Thanks in advance.

fertico-ga,

Happy new year!

Thanks for letting me know a bit more about what you need.

The advantage to the FDA list is that it can be readily presented as a
name and address list.

The disadvantage, though, is that it mixes pharma labs with other
sorts of medical supply companies.

A more focused list might be this one here, of pharmaceutical manufacturers in PR:


http://www.onlineyellowpages.com/category_results.asp?state=PR&sic=283404


However, you'll need to click on the companies one at a time in order
to pull up the full contact information (along with pretty good
descriptions of company activities).

Let me know if that does the trick for you.


paf

This is exactly what I was looking for. I hope to have similar
research projects for you.

Thanks so much...glad that everything worked out well.

Looking forward to hearing from you again,

paf
