AZ was always Good to Me.













You must be short on tenure. Many AZ folks were on a combined GI/CV team. I sold Nexium and all the CV products. Loved those days before PBMs. Loaded our 401Ks and banked those bonus checks. Retired at 60.

Not trying to be mean...

But, how does it feel, that you sold cholesterol drugs that are linked to Alzzhheirrmmer's?
 
















































how many are you still friends with today?

bet they were just work acquaintances, nothing more.
At our annual Christmas dinner, our spouses would meet and develop lasting friendships to date. We had a district rep who was seriously ill. AZ connections got him an appointment with the world’s leading specialist at the Mayo Clinic. AZ cared and we were family. No See docs were nonexistent and docs looked forward to our visits. Wish we could turn back time and enjoy it all over!

Thanks for the great post. We all miss being part of the early days of AZ! Members of our old district still get together for a Summer picnic. It is great to talk about our docs and managers. The beer is cold and the burgers are juicy! So blessed to have been an AZ rep!
 






Yea, AZ did things right most of the time. Plus, we had great drugs to sell. Now, this new PCSK9 inhibitor will rock the chol. market. I sold Lipitor for Parke-Davis, and when Pfizer bought us in 2000, AZ called, and I said yes. Dave Purdy in Roanoke helped me. Crestor Rocked in 2003, and the meeting in Hawaii
was the best ever.
