Cardinal Health understands the opioid epidemic is a public health crisis. We believe it will take everyone in the supply chain to solve it. As we deliver prescription medications from manufacturers to pharmacies and hospitals, while working to keep them from the wrong hands, Cardinal Health is proud of our values and our people and our commitment to being part of that solution.
Cardinal Health cares deeply about the devastation opioid misuse has caused American families and communities.
To combat prescription drug misuse, in 2009, the Cardinal Health Foundation and its education partners created GenerationRx, a national drug misuse prevention and awareness program and have supported an array of other solutions, including efforts to reduce opioid prescribing, raise awareness about opioid misuse, and support drug take-back events. We remain committed to supporting these efforts.
As a wholesale pharmaceutical distributor, Cardinal Health is an important part of a complex, highly regulated supply chain that has many actors.
We provide a secure channel to deliver medicine of all kinds from hundreds of our manufacturer suppliers to our thousands of hospital and pharmacy customers.
The Cardinal Health Foundation supports communities around the country in the fight against the opioid epidemic.
