Current Association Partners
Lexi-Comp partners with the American Medical Student Association (AMSA) to give physicians-in-training access to drug information that is unbiased and free from pharmaceutical influence. AMSA's PharmFree Campaign - which guides future physicians in organizing to advocate for evidence-based rather than marketing-based prescribing practices, the removal of conflicts of interest and global access to essential medicines - prompted the organization to partner with Lexi-Comp.
AMSA is the oldest and largest independent association of physicians-in-training in the United States. Founded in 1950, AMSA is a student-governed, non-profit organization committed to representing the concerns of physicians-in-training. To learn more about AMSA, including member discounts on Lexi-Comp Smartphone and PDA subscriptions, please visit www.amsa.org.

In early 2002, Lexi-Comp was chosen as the exclusive provider of online content for APhA members through the www.pharmacist.com web site (co-developed by APhA and the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy or NABP). In addition, this co-marketing and sales agreement now includes all PDA software. Please visit the Pharmacist.com website for more information and APhA member discounts.
