I believe that a lot of the improvement in mortality was due to improvements in emergency treatment. At one time, there wasn't a whole lot done for stroke patients except rehabilitation. Now strokes are treated just like major trauma at our local hospital. Paramedics call in with a code stroke, just like code trauma. A stroke team is waiting with the latest diagnostic and treatment equipment, drugs,and professionals. The same goes for heart attacks.
I just did a search. Top of page was vascepa.com as first result. Other results were drugs.com and other sites with info on Vascepa.
You don't know that it won't be unblinded early. None of us know that.
There's already a nice ad in Men's Health featuring Rick Harrison. One of the guys in the Amarin Facebook group posted an image of it.
CVS has taken over operation of the Target pharmacies.
Possibly a total scam where you get nothing. Definitely illegal any way you look at it. Anyone could print a fake label and affix to a bottle of anything.
I'll give you my opinion. If we had Anchor, Vascepa would own that space with no FDA-Approved competition. I doubt that insurance would have much choice but to cover it.
Generic L was also down last week, so I don't share your negative view on scripts.
Compounding pharmacies can already provide pills with the active ingredients of the generic drugs. No approval process is needed.
I was responding to Raf who did use the term construction worker. Concerning the value of info on here, I learned something valuable from the late William Cooper. He was what some people call a conspiracy theorist. Listen to everything, but don't believe it til you verify it with your own research.
I don't know what you're trying to imply about construction workers. Some of them are probably smarter than the so-called professionals. The building trades require skilled workers, not just guys with strong backs. There are brilliant people and stupid people in all fields. I'm a fork lift operator, but I understand the science behind Vascepa. I also have an open mind regarding change in medical practice. I was a volunteer EMT when automated defibrillators were put on the market. There was substantial resistance from some doctors and medics. Now we see them everywhere. There's resistance to Vascepa to be overcome also. It's a curious thing that I understand Vascepa better than some professionals.
It's my understanding that the temporary injunction only applies to Amarin. I also believe that a settlement is still being negotiated.
I understand his frustration, but I don't think he understands how EPA works. Cholesterol changes measured over a short period of time probably don't mean much. REDUCE-IT is an events driven study anyway.
Scary. They just started on the drug January 7.
If it has 30% efficacy, it will be noticed regardless of what the FDA does.
Your mention of nursing homes hit a chord with me. Alzheimers and dementia are growing problems. I never realized how important good sleep is to the brain. An article on mercola.com dealt with this subject. According to it, only during sleep can the brain dispose of waste material. I need to heed the advice given. I get off at 7 AM and sleep off and on, checking the stock action. Long term care is shaping up to be a huge problem in the U.S. If our Vascepa can improve quality of life it could save healthcare dollars in a big way.
No dilution will occur. Sales will continue to grow and become adequate to stop cash burn.
It seems to me to be unethical for an influential person to be tweeting rumors that could move the market.
As I understand it, the temporary injunction remains in effect. We can still market off label with truthful info during the delay and grow scripts.
No delay. If no settlement by now, take it to trial.
Not yet. It says available in Feb. 2016.
Are you the same Mogwai who was suggesting 13 or 14 thousand scripts before the last report? Maybe there will be another surprise.
Probably not important at all. I did a Google search with the word Vascepa and vascepa.com was second result on the list.
Revenue comes from scripts no matter what the market is saying today. Sales make or break a company. That's just simple logic.I expect a nice increase in scripts on the next report.
Watson isn't a government agency. FDA is no longer a party to the action. What am I missing here? Why do they have 45 days?
What about new scripts? They should be significantly higher.Total scripts should be greater than 15000.
The last time I checked, cardiovascular health is a matter of life and death. The company has a fiduciary responsibility to the stakeholders too. It might be great to run the trial another 10 years too, but that's not Amarin's responsibility. If great efficacy is seen at interim, there should be a halt.
I disagree. A good settlement of the first amendment case and granting of NCE are possible catalysts that could come any day. Total scripts will start building on the refills of the increasing new scripts also.
To top it all off, Amarin already has an approved drug with increasing sales.
If we get that, we still need the right to provide truthful information to doctors. There's no guarantee of an early stop. Scripts need to grow.
I honestly believe that December 17 will bring big news. The FDA can't afford to take this to trial and set a precedent.
Dog must be covering Mog's shift for the holiday.
I doubt that this proposal will ever become law. The drug companies are simply communicating truthful information to the public. It should be protected commercial speech, just as Amarin's commercial speech to doctors should be protected.
No. They were bodybuilding and weight loss supplements. There was also another that claimed to cure opiate addiction. The bodybuilding products contained banned ingredients. After being warned, the company attempted to liquidate the remaining stock. Several employees were arrested on criminal charges.
Sales will ramp up and eliminate the need for dilution. New scripts are already picking up.
There will be no dilution in my opinion. Scripts will increase steadily as we take patients away from generic L. A doubling of scripts within 6 months is a reasonable expectation in my opinion.
If scripts grow under first amendment promotion,I doubt that more financing will be needed.PPS won't drop lower than now either.
We have the first amendment case and the NCE still going on.
You know you have a problem when the nurse practitioner at the urologist's office asks if you have to get up and "go" during the night.You reply that you're a night shift worker.She then asks how about daytime then.You reply "I don't sleep continuously.I wake up every hour or two to check my stock (Amarin) price".True story,though.She just shook her head and grinned.
Here I am.$8 by November.
