Bydureon - Here is the truth

[anonymous]

LOL - if you bozos can pass PAI but who will be the fall guy for Kurt the CEO and his cronies? Take your pick - Hayward plant in front of concrete recycler with on-going micro contaminations, DS CMO AKA Chinese sweat shop CS Bio with the CALOSHA, fire dept and FDA after them and pill packing house Safecor who failed sterilization validation TWICE and taken out/removed from lame NDA.

Add to this Kurt touting 1-yr implant that does NOT exist on CNBC hosted by bozo Cramer.

And get this the Achilles heel - 1st year the patient needs THREE implants (3, 6 then 9 months), 3 placement kits, 3 insertion and 2 removal SURGERIES in the tunes of $20 to $30k! And biggest concern is well known (but hidden) and documented nausea side effect? So who will pay if the patient wants the damn implant removed due to nasty nausea?

Are you kiddin' me? Drs will push this system because they will get to bill for those small surgeries.

Nice try. Nausea was 2% in the studies. This product is a game changer and you dont even know yet what minor surgery procedure will cost. Patients will want it and so will primary care docs so they can control compliance. Managed care will love too because a compliant patient doesnt go to hospital. 1 hospital admission saved pays for.hundreds of patients to get product. Its a no brainer.

Let's see. Google the recent news on Bydureon.
*Projected to be as high as $2Billion by the end of the decade, even with all the new entries to come into the diabetes market.
*Listed as the 1st of the top 15 blockbuster drugs to get FDA approval in the near future
*Expected that patients will prefer the convenience of fewer shots
*As for pricing, Forbes says Bydureon will cost about $4,200, compared with roughly $5,000 for high-dosage Victoza.
* Meanwhile, Novo Nordisk was trying to position itself by signing Paula Deen, the self-styled ‘Queen of Southern Cuisine’ and Food Network star, as a spokesperson. However, Deen knew she had Type 2 diabetes for three years, but did not disclose this until the signing. Meanwhile, she was promoting dishes that can worsen diabetes. This caused a debate about whether Novo Nordisk was cynical and hypocritical for choosing Deen to promote its medicines

These are all directly from investor websites, not from Novo or Amylin. Now There's the unbiased truth.

My sources say NO...what are smoking. Plus increase risk for pancreatic cancer, all for ~1.2 A1c drop get real numnuts!
