The Rx Consultant

Based in the US, The Rx Consultant specializes in providing healthcare professionals, particularly pharmacists, with essential evidence-based resources and educational materials to enhance their drug therapy practices and patient safety measures. The Rx Consultant is dedicated to offering healthcare professionals access to critical information regarding disease states and drug therapies. Founded in 1991 in Martinez, California, the company has focused on delivering valuable resources to pharmacists. The company was acquired in March 2021 by KnowFully Learning Group, a portfolio company of NexPhase Capital, enhancing its capacity to provide timely content to healthcare professionals.

The Rx Consultant offers a comprehensive suite of evidence-based resources for healthcare professionals, especially pharmacists. Their primary product is a subscription service that includes detailed updates and reviews on over 30 topics related to disease states, drug therapy, and patient safety. Subscribers can choose between a digital-only access for USD 69 per year or a combined digital and print subscription for USD 127 per year, which includes over 50 hours of continuing education materials. The company also provides additional resources such as on-demand webcasts and specialty topic monographs.

The revenue model for The Rx Consultant is primarily based on subscription services. The digital-only subscription costs USD 69 per year, while the combined digital and print subscription is priced at USD 127 per year. These subscriptions enable clients to access the Rx Resource Library and monthly publications, with transactions structured directly between The Rx Consultant and its clients, which include individual healthcare professionals and organizations in need of accredited continuing education. Following its acquisition by KnowFully Learning Group in March 2021, The Rx Consultant plans to enhance its offerings and expand its reach in the healthcare education market.

The acquisition allows the company to integrate further into KnowFully's PharmCon division, thereby increasing the value and timeliness of the content provided to healthcare professionals. This strategic move is expected to bolster the company’s growth trajectory and its ability to serve a wider audience of healthcare providers.
