Brilliant or despicable?







That would require him to actually visit a doctor. And that means needles.

Mr. Dump's major flaw is that he will NOT got to a doctor unless he absolutely has to. His Mom went 40 years without going to a doctor and finally went because we were all badgering her. Now she's on all kinds of meds and feels like shit.

Yes, but it was only a matter of time before the FDA pulled it because it was unstudied. The orphan drug protection and pricing both make sense considering the costs of doing the safety studies and all the legal requirements of a company to provide free drug for many low income patients. You hear the stories all the time about patients not getting their meds because of costs but, either they have insurance and pay a low percentage of the cost, or they are uninsured and if they are low income, can get the drug free --- if the lazy doc will fill out the paperwork.

Health care is a business and it's time people remember that!

Pulled which one? Colchicine? I doubt it, it has been out since the 1800s and I think its safety and efficacy goes without saying. One company decided to do a study on colchicine and take it to the FDA - all these years later - then gets exclusivity on a drug that has been generic for >100 years? That's BS and you know it. Go read the articles and letters to the editor, then tell me you feel the same.

Believe me, I am a pharma cheerleader, I don't hate the industry. I do hate what was done with the Colcrys case. URL should never been allowed to sue to take all of the generic off of the market. You want to submit it, brand it, and sell it? Go ahead, but you shouldn't be able to take a med that has been out for >100 years and stop the generic manufacture. The FDA is stupid for letting this go through. Like I said, someone needed the balls to stand up and say no.

Now, SPN, if you're talking about Makena, that case is a little different, in that KV lied regarding the FDA taking action on the compounded meds. They did not sue to stop the generic compounded version.

When Adams got the patent for time release Mucinex, they sued and the Feds pulled ALL the other time release products off the market---brand, generic, and OTC. Immediate release still available in many products, but all raised their prices just because they could.
