It is the FDA that says the competition can't enter new delivery devices into the market ... or even old designs until they get specifically accepted and that takes years. Why are there only 2 companies selling that insulin device you talked about? Insulin itself is a commodity item. pretty much selling for the cost of production so it must be a proprietary delivery device. The same is true of the Epi pen. The drug itself is generically available dirt cheap. You are just paying for the syringe. Who is holding up the approval of the 50 cent one? |

He must attempt to derail the conversation at his convenience. He is a desperate thinker, that is, if you can call his MO as truly thinking. |
