Medical Side Effects, Adverse Events, or Issues
Social media is not an appropriate place to resolve issues, complaints, suggestions, or experiences with your healthcare. These types of concerns are best handled by trained representatives. If you have any questions about your personal care, you should consult your physician, pharmacist, or other healthcare professional immediately. Please note, Vergent Bioscience does not give medical advice, nor does it provide medical or diagnostic services.
If you believe you have experienced an adverse event or side effect related to Vergent Bioscience’s clinical candidates, please contact your healthcare provider immediately.
Please keep in mind that social media is a public forum and that anyone may see or save your comments. We recommend not sharing any personal information within comments or posts on our pages. Sharing specific information concerning your personal health should be avoided.
Storing and Using Private Information
We do not collect your social media handles/IDs, email addresses or any other personal information, except in certain limited situations, including if you report an adverse event or product issue to us, for which we need to record identifying information about you (such as your name, location, or health- related information). This information is required by law to be submitted to regulatory authorities, and we are required to store this information for five years for auditing purposes.

Vergent Bioscience reserves the right to change these guidelines at any time in its sole discretion and without notice.
