Tomorrow is the day Zelnorm competitor approved

Tomorrow is the day the new Takeda drug "Lubi" is supposed to be approved. Novartis has certainly downplayed this and if it does happen wait to see all the teleconferences and other stuff we will have to do. This drug will certainly take some Zelnorm scripts and that will hurt meeting goals. Anyone have any other info

cant hit the goals anyway, if I hit 90% or 70% its all the same

Im so happy I left Novartis for Takeda...I now can settle some old scores and get some managers back by out selling them...

Novartis has said NOTHING! The silence is deafening! You would think they would have given us heads up! Congratulations to all that left to go to Takeda! Outstanding company-really

They did cover it at our recent DPM but it was talked about briefly, talked about certain side effects that the new drug has and not really gone into other than that. I guess maybe they think there may be a chance it may be delayed . Im sure the higher ups are a bit nervous. I understand the Takeda reps will have quite large territories.

They didn't cover it at my dpm. could you expand on what they told you? thanks-It'll be nice to know a little bit so I'm not completely in the dark.

They told us that the side effects include nausea-30% and possible uterine contractions. its a different MOA I think its definitenly going to be a relatioship sale as alot of Drs wait for a new drug to have some experience on the market. If your Drs are ok with Zelnorm and paitents like it why try something brand new with unknown side effects. You will defintiely be hearing more I think it was approved today and announcement will be made tomorrow. generic name is lubiprostone. Goggle it and you will see some info
Hope that helps

Drug has been approved!!! Time to kick some Zelnorm butt!!

Look out!
