All the press should help raise awareness, even if the journalists don't always get all the details right: "It is the same delivery system used in the Norplant birth control device." I thought the original Norplant (and subsequent version, Jadelle) used silicon. I believe Nexplanon (another birth control product) does use EVA polymer like ProNeura - I wonder what is different about it that it isn't patent infringement.

Too bad the bottleneck seems to be in streamlining the insurance approval process, coding, etc...

ProNeura is a powerful platform, and the next drug after buprenorphine should be much easier to get through (and has to sell better thatn Probuphine has so far). Here's hoping Titan has the wherewithal to monetize this very valuable process of continuous drug delivery.

An interesting review article about EPA drug delivery systems:

I didn't realize there are 10 other drugs currently on the market that use EVA polymer delivery technology.
