Silenor - all you need to know







WOW!

"That said, I do have to say “thank you” to Somaxon for reminding me of yet another medication that I can use to help treat insomnia. Not Silenor, but low-dose generic doxepin (10 mg). It’s a shame they had to spend the millions of dollars on R&D, clinical trials, and marketing, to convince me to prescribe the generic version of their drug, which costs only pennies a pill, but then again, you pays your money, you takes your chances.

(Postscript: Speaking of money, Somaxon stock closed at $2.70/share today, down from a high of $10.01 on the day Silenor was approved, a loss of $258 million of market capitalization. Imagine all the soft pillows, soothing music CDs, and OTC sleep aids that money could have bought…)"
 






This product is so awesome. Can't wait to sell it. Straight from the mouth of a physician:

No one is asking you to do anything you don't want to do! Why havent you quit if you're such a rock star? Since you seem to know so much about products and how well/bad they match up, you should be a super star for another company making 3x as much. Why do you stick around for a 40k a year job with products you hate to sell? Oh that's right, people see right through your bullshit and would never give you another opportunity. This job is about as close to pharma that you will ever get. Make the best of it, this is as good as you'll ever get... Now take your Benadryl, chill the fuck out and go put on your best smile. Because until you leave, your bitch ass is mine and I'll tell you what to sell and how to sell it and you'll do it with a smile. Or quit. Best part about it, it's your choice.

Why does management even get on this board and argue like this. They just lend credence to all the hate on here
 












If you spent as much time learning the insomnia market, the area of Silenor's strengths, the managed care arena as you do looking for negative articles online you could actually be a real sales person. There are other jobs out there, why not channel your energy into looking for one.

So angry you are, why? It's obvious from reading these posts and listening to what is going on with Pernix since it bought out Hawthorn that your business plan is failing FAST! My advice would be to admit your plan isnt working and create another one. If the people you have in place at the corp level are not smart enough to think of another strategy then get rid of them and bring in people who can get the job done. I'm sure your investors have you on a time line, do you really want them to pull the plug.

Put Silenor into a google search. Those three articles come up on the first page.

Right. There are other jobs out there. The economy is getting better. Companies are hiring. I am going to channel my energy into finding one. I'm going to do it on your time too. wish me luck!

Hey (poor bastard) shareholder:

I get why you're angry. You are a shareholder of company stock that is sinking like the titanic. Why don't you stop trolling around on this board and get your ass on the phone and get something fixed. Good grief not only is this company filled with incompetent pieces of shit executives, the shareholders are clearly clueless too. If you had shit for brains then you'd sell out. Unless you're stuck with shitty stock that you can't sell yet. Cheer up I'm sure it will bottom out around $4.50 next week. Oooops then the summer hits. Good luck with your shitty stock you loser

Sinking like the titantic and Q2 and Q3 will be terrible for this company. Wonder if the stock will hit a lowly $3.

It's not our fault you put your 401K into this dog with fleas, Grandpa
 












Maybe management should have kept the Somaxon people instead of you.

We didn't know the somaxon people were let go. I agree completely with you. If they let go the people who were successful selling this drug then that's just plain stupid. But then that's Pernix Therapeutics. They do dumb stuff better than anyone out there

We were let go for 1 reason: Our base salary was >70k and with bonus we made 80-100
