That was never addressed well and I had to think that even if you got it into the syringe during the 30 seconds (and I believe this window only occurred under a specific means of abuse that not every addict may be aware of), it would continue the gelling process and would be very hard to get out of the syringe. So, what exactly happens in this rare situation? Is it possible to get the drug into and out of the syringe (and into your vein) in less than 30 seconds? If it gets into your vein, does the gelling process stop or reverse?
While I think the FDA deserves a lot of blame for what happened yesterday, the company deserves a fair amount as well as they did little to explain themselves well and seemed unprepared for many questions. I have to assume they never thought such questions would be asked as the whole session veered in a different direction than it was supposed to. Even so, they were not very fast on their feet and their experts did not always inspire much confidence. The one guy was so halting and hesitant at times that it was clear to me that he had been coached on not saying certain things but found himself in positions where he then had little or nothing to say.
