So... docs just burning down the house to prescribe Alo AG...









I have tried to spin this several different ways. My providers can see right through this scam as they went through the same thing with colcrys. Ethically I will not force it down their throats as I wouldlose all credibility. If I had just one legitimate talking point about how this benefits the patients or providers. Anybody been successful with a strategy?

I see all the negative Nancy's are on here. This has been going great. Docs don't give a crap why, they are just happy their patient now has a generic in this class that will be a formulary generic. This is a win/win for total healthcare dollar spending.

You are obviously not in the field. You say they are happy that a patient has a generic in this class. How many plans put an authorized generic on plan versus a true generic that is much less expensive. A win win for pharma but not the patient. Patients were getting Nesina for $4. what are they paying now. you my friend a re a fucking tool drunk on the company kool aid

Please tell me what the "true generic" DPP-4i is? If a doc could write for a generic DPP-4i, get it for Medicare patients at generic co-pay, get credit for generic fill rate targets, and not have to deal with co-pay coupons and gimmicks - what's not to like? Just give the MC coverage time to appear.

Nesina is not a generic. It is AG which is still manufactured and price controlled by the branded manufacturer. The difference with AG's and generics is that with generics the price decreases after 6 months because there are multiple competitors of a generic product. This is not the case with authorized generics and nesina. Takeda has patent protection an will fight any competitors that try to release a generic version.
 








True but it will still be less expensive then the Branded Items EVEN JANUVIA (with it's kick backs; yes I'm addressing YOU the competitor).. run scared.

There are no rebate coupons for an AG product. Januvia can be had for under $10 with rebate program. Neverseena rx AG will not be at a tier 1 generic copay sparky, have you thought through that. I think we will still kick your butt. I sell Onglyza, not Januvia and Nesina is in single digits weekly.
