Re: Scripts.

Agreed that the numbers basically suck (to use a highly technical term).

The refill number still looks like at best a 30% take rate (30% of those who try the product stick with it). And this is within users who are likely ideal candidates.

I still believe that this product could "work", but hard to see establishing a position in MNKD until these numbers start to look significantly better.

Afrezza hit a new record for TRx this week (585, taking out the last high of 529 reached for the week of 8/21/2015).

All in all, it was a pretty good week.
