The new Alere brings together 18 leading diagnostic and health management companies with expertise in over 100 disease categories.

Whether used in a hospital, doctor's office or at home, all of our products provide the timely, accurate and actionable information you need to manage your health. Our primary areas of interest are in cardiology, women's health, infectious disease, oncology and drugs of abuse, and we see exciting opportunities to develop innovative health management programs supported by advanced diagnostic and monitoring tools which will help people involved with these conditions to better look after themselves. However, we also expect to acquire technologies and products which over time will allow expansion to new medical issues, always focused on enabling individuals to take charge of their own health at home. |
