Lytics

[anonymous]

Returing from the NSM, I have one question: How does the Lytics franchise continue to exist? They have been promoting the same product for stroke for almost 20 years. At this point, a hospital either treats stroke or it doesn't. How do we justify keeping this group around?

Because they make the company a shit ton of money. Next question.

And they're the only franchise without competition, they really don't sell anything......

They are legends in their own minds. No accountability.

Seems like the company could get rid of many oncology reps. Some of those drugs sell themselves and would be used without a sales force. Let's be honest.

One Herceptin rep makes the company as much money as the entire lytics franchise. Next answer.

And that Herceptin rep is NOT vital to that revenue. That revenue will be there regardless. Give a monkey that job and the revenue will be the same.

Ummm, they've already done that. Overpaid monkeys with attitudes.

This business unit is one of top profitable brands for the company even after 20 years. Sorry for your ignorance but there are a ton of stroke patients that do not get Activase and the opportunity is endless to help these patients. What this franchise does is far more than feeding accounts and hoping that physicians will come back. Impacting change in policy and procedures, far beyond what you do in your pay grade. Maybe become more informed before you put something on here because you are obviously ignorant.

Until Athersys finishes Phase 2 Watch out.

And you just demonstrated your ignorance further. That product would in no way compete. *Yawn* Go back to your catering gig.
