Monthly Branded/Generic US Lovenox Scripts

I’ve converted Rocky’s weekly script numbers to average weekly
figures for each month, which gives a better indication of the trend.
(See #msg-68906536 and #msg-68710933 for quarterly data.)

When SNY launched an “authorized” generic in late October, the stated
intention was to take some of NVS’ market share in the retail segment,
which is what these script numbers track. (Scripts for SNY’s AG are not
shown in the table below.) However, SNY announced on Nov 30 that
the AG has been withdrawn, so NVS’ share of the retail segment will
presumably remain at a high level after all.
