BMS to sell off Diabetes Unit?

























Don't agree!!! BMS has sold off a few other divisions worldwide and since AZ is the lead on the diabetese franchise they might just pick up the portfolio and dump BMS reps/dms.

True. Bms comarket with AZ is exactly how the bms neuro partnership went down with otsuka last year at this time. they said no way that bms would shut down entire neuro division of 700 people and they did. bms will do the same with diabetes division if AZ is willing to buy them out of the comarketing contract just like otsuka did. bms would sell the third born child for the right amount of money. blood thristy idiots. watch your backs diabetes division.
 




You guys are idiots. Either that or incredibly niave. We are in a growth cycle right now. That is not company koolaid. That is the reality that Americans are eating themselves to death. When you see the PowerPoint presentations about how many more diabetics there will be in a few years you would see that the board and shareholders are all getting boners over this disease state. They only announced cuts to R&D. Even dog products and me too's are gong to make billions. Every pharma company is building sales diabetes forces. Sad but true, we are good for a while here

Spoken like a true dumb ass!! First name a division they have sold off. Next no one is buying shit until dapa gets approved or not. Next no one buying shit until the pen gets approved or not, and if they don't get approved not going to make difference who the fuck owns us.

I agree with you about the growing problem of diabetes, which makes the decision to not pursue diabetes very strange.

Don`t be so naive. Everything you say is exactly what Nss said last year with abilify. Mgmt even said on stage at national meeting that sales growth was strong and no cuts would even be looked at for at least 18 months. 6 months later, 700 people and an entire profitable division were gone. Everything here at bms is fools gold and they will sell their souls for the right price.

Okay dumb ass!!! Here you go-
Neuroscience Division - Abilify
Mead Johnson - 2009, women having babies everyday all day and providing nutritional supplements to their babies.
Zimmer - 2001, orthopaedics

Got it dumb ass!!!! Don't write unless you know what you're talking about.

Really . . . sounds like you've had way too much to drink. You make it sound like BMS is rescuing the diabetics. BMS never was and will never be a leader in the diabetes specialty, as proven by poor sales as they stated in the press release. The affordable care act limits the prescribing of branded drugs and docs will/are prescribing the drugs with least resistance from health plans. That's what my customers are telling me!! I doubt that "every pharma company is building sales diabetes forces" knowing that pharm sales is a dying industry.

Wrong. BMS was by far the diabetes leader when it had branded metformin. You need to stop posting.

Lol. Re-read my Post. Never said "rescuing." Cashing in on, that is what they are doing. It is the overall market that is exploding and opportunity to make tons of money. Schwinggggggggg!

They also sold off reliably profitable Clairol division, can't remember exactly when. Zimmer was the really stupid one to sell off, considering the aging of the baby boomers.
 




BMS is going to jump ship while a good offer is out there. If someone is going to pay, they'll get out while they can.....right now it's good business to have the cash and pump it somewhere where there will be a ROI.

Apply the aging baby boomers scenerio to the selling of clairol back @2000,by those morons Dolan and Lane!Aging baby boomers buying hair color products!P&G laughing all the way to the bank with their profits from that boner deal.Then again,no one ever said that Lane and Dolan were smart or sharp!BOZOS!
