..Alkermes, Inc has announced positive results from an early stage clinical trial testing the efficacy of its drug candidate ALKS 33 in treating cocaine addiction. The company also said it has been awarded a grant of up to $2.4 million from the National Institute on Drug Abuse Grants to speed up development of the potential therapy.

The phase 1 clinical trial tested ALKS 33 in combination with an existing medication for the treatment of opioid addiction, buprenorphine, for the treatment of cocaine addiction. Data from the study showed that the the drug was both effective and generally well-tolerated. Alkermes expects to initiate a phase 2a study of the combination therapy in the first half of calendar year 2011, using the funding from the NIDA grant.

There are currently no medications approved for the treatment of cocaine addiction. Alkermes won approval earlier this month for Vivitrol, an injectable drug to treat addiction to opioids like heroin or prescription painkillers.

Sure it is off topic but since when is making a buck off topic. The logic is overwhelming indeed!

I am a new 60 rep. I am in the top 30 reps in the company as to not give away who I am. I signed a contract for a 2500.00 training bonus to be paid upon completion of training and the next company bonus pay date. That was Sept. Where is our money? I asked my manager who pretends there is no white elephant in the room because I am a female. I want my money. Has no one else wondered how come yous have not been paid. I am a single mother of 3 and need the money. Everytime I ask the subject is changed! Please tell me that there are other people who are wondering the same thing? My ex husband is a corporate attorney and can make things happen. What is the deal. I am beginning to wonder should I begin a search for another job where I acutually get paid? Does this company have the money and if so where is my bonus? Please respond and let me know if I am wrong in my thinking or should we have been paid?
 






I am sorry that they have not paid you. We are slow sometimes. We have the money, have you called to make sure there wasnt a mistake in payroll. I think the training bonus was paid already as per contract in Sept. If you didnt get yours there must be a mistake.
 






Its going over REALLY well. Zuplenz in fact is priced below Generic Zofran.
Do the math.

Actually Zofran is only priced below "per strip" compared to per tablet. The bad thing is NO ONE prescribes them in that method other than few surgeons for minor surgeries or off label. When prescribing in the correct oncology (or even most of the time off label) the generic vs branded is a night and day difference in price. This product ONLY will be offered with a "great relationship", when your giving 10 samples and asking them to prescribe a few strips or if the patient can not take ODTs. It is an option but definitely not something that will make tons of money in this industry, esp with the way insurance companies are cracking down on the amount of anti-emetics that can be prescribed at one time.

so you are a single mother of three to whom the company owes $2,500? Good thing you said you were a top 30 rep, otherwise HR would have too easy of a time figuring out who you are? Wait, we only have one female employee with 3 dependents to whom we owe $2500? shocking!

Only higher ups would know this information. I can't believe they post on here. What a bunch of losers. Know who I am ass face?
 












Who the fuck cares! You owed everyone money! Me included. This shithole will be empty of decent reps by Feb. I bet they get a training class going for Feb because they know whats about to happen. I know of 4 reps including myself who have had other jobs for the last 3 weeks. I have been in home study and so have 3 others with the same company. I know there are others. I just cant decide if I tell them now or the day I go to training. I may just not say anything until they figure it out. With no sigs required now may be months. Thanks Fat boy HershyBar! Figure it out! BEOTCHES!!!!!!!!!! GIVE ME MY MONEY WHILE I WORK FOR SOMEONE ELSE FOR THE NEXT FEW MONTHS WHILE SCREWING YOU AND THIS COMPANY (I use that term loosly). I am not opening my mouth until someone comes and knocks on my door to get these samples and car. Thanks!
 
























How correct was the original poster on this message. He was a rep and saw it coming. I guess we do know what we are talking about.

Wow, look at the comments from the reps. They were dead on and the responses from management and home office were way off. This is truly a good place to get the real perspective on things.
 


















Adam knew it would be a blockbuster. So he told corporate they purchased the product and then AD was promoted from DM to RD. Now he runs it all. It was all based on his knowledge of Zuplenz. It was also because he is seen as a comedian at corporate that is more like a monkey at a circus that is there to make RP, TB, LW, and PL laugh. He now is doing his true calling in life, kissing but and making people laugh. His parents would be proud.
