Patient Testimony....

I had this drug (ipilimumab)in the last clinical trials before it was approved. I only had a few side effects like skin inflammation and tiredness. It did cause me to have low platelets. But, that is managed with Promacta. I would highly recommend this drug!!!!!!!

Oh yeah, this is a breakthrough alright. Breakthrough your wallet... 30 hits of Promacta $3,000 in addition to the cost of the ipilimumab, Maybe GLAXO and Bristol Meyers think its a breakthrough....but those who foot the bill may not see it that way...
