VPHM, Steve, very impressive to see still another insider buy in spite of the recent run-up. I think you are right, while it is impossible to know what sales of Vancocin are this Q, all the insider buys suggest that the sales are very strong.

I wonder if there is a "seasonality factor" to Vancocin sales?
Vancocin is needed after antibiotics are used to treat another infection. This allows a secondary bacterial infection of "Clostridium difficile" to flourish as it is not affected by other antibiotics. Vancocin is expensive but it is sometimes needed to treat that secondary infection which can even be fatal. It seems that usage would tend to be highest during and after the winter flu and cold season which would include the next quarter to be reported.
