Strong in Switzerland
Our aim is to significantly improve the lives of patients and help shape society in a positive way.
Around 250 AbbVie employees...
...in Cham, in Zug, and at the site in Schaffhausen are committed to treating many life-threatening and chronic diseases. They cover important parts of the value chain: from clinical trials to the nationwide distribution of medicines.
AbbVie medicines are used to treat serious illnesses that can affect people of all ages at different stages of life. This is where we come in to make a real difference for these people and their families. But we are not yet satisfied with that.
Our support for patients goes beyond medicines: We maintain various partnerships in order to better understand patients' needs, raise awareness and facilitate access to healthcare.
Tackling the most complex challenges in healthcare requires a dynamic and collaborative way of working. As a forward-looking company, we seek dialogue and cooperation with all key representatives of the healthcare system.

AbbVie is a young company, but we have already proven that we keep our promises. Over 60 million people in more than 175 countries are now benefiting from our medicinal products. We specialise in the fields of immunology, oncology, virology, neurology, ophthalmology and aesthetic medicine.
In recent years, AbbVie has invested heavily in scientific research and has been able to translate this into a strong pipeline with promising therapeutic options. These complement our portfolio of proven medicinal products.
