Does anyone honestly think Xartemis XR will even grow by 5%?

How will the launch of Hysingla affect Xartemis sales?
I have never worked with such evil and incompetent leadership! They have helped with nothing! NO managed care, NO pharmacy stocking, Taking us out if territories we had relationships in and putting us in enormous geographies with NO more free vouchers (think samples with non CII...every company gives their product away the first year) and yet they want us to grow?????
My question is- what have they been growing???

This is the most delusional and evil management I have ever worked with in 15 years in the industry. This company has taken such a nosedive it is frightening. Grow??? They want more from us but yet what have they given us??
Have they obtained ANY major managed care coverage? NO.
Knowing what an issue pharmacy stocking still is, have they entered into any pharmacy stocking agreements? NO
We finally build relationships and start to get scripts. What do they do?
REALIGN TERRITORIES MAKING THEM UNMANAGEABLY LARGE YET REMOVING US FROM MAJORITY OF THE EXITING RELATIONSHIPS WEVE BUILT.
Non CII give their product away in the form of samples. We had a precious few free coupons. Are we given any more? NO
And yet they want us to grow. My question for SC and senior management is: what are you growing????

I totally agree with you. So the question remains why do they have such unrealistic $ expectations for both Xartemis and Ofirmev? They are driving up the stock price now but when those unrealistic expectations don't happen, then what? Are they pushing for a fast sale? Nothing else makes sense.
Unless they hired someone to cast a spell, XXR is dead meat.
My next door neighbor, a pharmacist, says he has seen only a single prescription for it, and he works at a huge pharmacy that is constantly busy.
He added the PBM would not cover it.
Sigh...............

Together we are unstoppable !! Let's Take It Over the Top !! Nobody else could possibly achieve what we are going to do together.
DEDICATION, COMMITMENT, TEAM WORK !!! LET"S DO THIS !!!!

This drug will eventually very quietly be sold off. They can't do anything now as this would destroy the Mallinckrodt image of great sales and lower the stock price. Anyone out there that thinks this is truly a viable drug that is suddenly going to sky rocket in sales is just fooling themselves. This is a glorified branded Percocet and that is one reason the coverage is so extremely poor. There is nothing that truly distinguishes this drug from anything else. Just another narcotic and an expensive one at that. Given so few scripts and everyone's salaries etc, this division is toast. I'm just a realist and everyone should be too. Do yourselves a favor and minimally start applying for other jobs. For two reasons. First, does anyone enjoy this job even a small aspect of it and feel fulfilled. NO. Second, the drug and company suck and it doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that your job will once again be at risk in the next 6 months.
It is truly sad that Mallinckrodt has ruined an entire sales force over this piece-of-crap drug. It used to be fun to work here. Pennsaid and Exalgo were good drugs. But since the FDA didn't give us abuse labeling, these clowns have been chasing their tails, trying to figure out what to do next. They fired most of the sales force for not making goal--when there WAS NO GOAL. Then they decided on surgery. When that didn't work, they tried this, and they tried that. Fired a few more. Upped goals. Changed territories. Dumped Ventiv.
Now with Hysingla, it's all over but the shouting--both for XXR and 155--and branded MNK as we know it.
These ass clowns are just trying to keep the stock price up until some fool buys the company--so that they can get richer. Then go somewhere else and do it all over again.
Well, it looks like the stock has rolled over and headed down. They had better do something quick! They're losing money every day.

Better question, why are you still working there? If you are wise enough to come post on this board, you should have been wise enough to leave.
Not everyone on this board is hanging on every negative comment. I've lived a time when mallinckrodt was a good place to be. We worked as a team, maybe with less resources, or without the most perfect products - but we made it a success. I'm not ready to throw it all away. The horrible turn of events has left a sour taste in my mouth too. Then I think about last winter there was one day in particular when i was out before the sun was bright driving on a freezing cold snowy day - making calls, making sales, making things happen. Not because my manager told me to do it or because the company said to do it. It matters to me that we do well and i wanted to earn my place. I'm proud of the company we've built and heartbroken that the current management team doen't know or care about what we've done. But I'm not a quitter and i wont give up.
Hey moron. I'm not even the poster, but you have to find another job before you quit one. Why be such a sarcastic, nasty bitch?
While you have a great attitude, surely you have to be tired at getting beaten down. How much more can you keep giving without starting to feel resentment? I hope your resume is current and you are testing the job market where you live. Your talent and drive is being wasted on a company that obviously doesn't appreciate it.
And at least you have a choice, some of your tenured colleagues didn't.
Oh cry me a river.... (Violins playing). You sound so pathetic.....on a freezing cold winter day I was out making calls be for the sun came out and it wasn't because my manager asked me to do this...
Ummmmm that's your job. That's what we all do and are supposed to do. Get over pathetic self. Embarrassing!
Even worse! Ummmm time to move on with your life and not live in the past. Move on Cowboy. You were probably let go and bitter. Wasting time on this thread when you don't even work here is a very scary thought. Try Zoloft.
Oh I just get a charge out of rattling your cage. Isn't that ok? Plus I'm just curious to see just how bad the SLT can f*ck things up. I continue to be amazed. Good entertainment.
