Mental Health

At Boehringer Ingelheim, we aspire to provide mental health treatment approaches that places an individual’s specific needs at the center. Our efforts go beyond pharmacologic interventions because we recognize that the needs of people living with mental health conditions are complex and highly individualized. We believe the future of care for people with mental illnesses will often involve a combination of treatment modalities that could include pharmacotherapies, behavioral therapies, psychosocial interventions, community support, and prescription digital therapeutics, to achieve more integrated and tailored solutions that enable better outcomes.

Together, we’re championing every mind for generations.
