ZURZUVAE at 5X of ZULRESSO 2022 sales $7.7M = Not Enough





Why would you think an oral medication would only be 5x the sales of something that you had to be admitted in the hospital for in an IV formulation?
Am I being naive to believe that 1 in 8 births, the Mom suffers from PPD? Price and insurance coverage will be the biggest hurdle. Every news organization has ran with this FDA approval

If you really think an oral medication a woman will take once a day for only 2 weeks at a very specific time in her life will be enough revenue to support all the sales force they have offers out to you are out of your mind. The MDD market was where the money was at. Yes, PPD is a great advancement and will help a lot of women. But it’s a fraction of the market and without refills to continue to generate revenue. There’s no way PPD alone can justify the number of reps they had planned on bringing on board. Couple that with the labeling and I would be thinking very hard if I’d make the jump. It would depend heavily on your current employment situation.

Breast feeding not an issue as the IV form didn't affect milk. Simple fix for dosing is to take at night. It actually is an advantage as sleep deprivation is huge for PPD moms.
