I made that exact switch 4 years ago.
Can't complain too much about it really. Pharma can be dry, and uncreative at times, but it has it's own set of challenges that I enjoy.

if your friend still feels challenged and is getting good work then i would not mess with a good thing for 15%, either make a change because you KNOW it is going to be better for you as a person or designer, or at least a very healthy pay raise.

Job satisfaction is paramount.

Great time for your friend to have an 'adult' conversation with her current boss. Maybe you can negotiate things that you have not considered: money, flexible work from home schedule, time off, etc.
Congrats to your friend for the new opportunity. Now she has to take the next step of getting all of the information in a way that doesn't threaten the current employer but lets them know of her value so that they can make a counter offer.
Make sure your friend embraces the whole process and learns enough about negotiating for the next time. Then and only then your friend will have to decided. If this is done correctly the Boss you end up working for will know they didn't hire an idiot.
