"Why do people with dementia need to stop laughing or crying??" YOU ARE DISGUSTING AND INHUMANE! I will tell you why. PEOPLE WITH DEMENTIA ARE PEOPLE TOO, THAT'S WHY!

PBA is a neurological condition, and can be very distressing for people suffering because of it, demented or not, because PBA "lauging or crying" is UNCONTROLLABLE. You assume that people with dementia do not have feelings or any awareness at all, therefore do not deserve treatment options. You are incorrect. My prayer for you is that you or a loved one never from any form of dementia or any other neurological condition and have to endure this "rare condition."

Nuedexta has resulted in over 100 deaths? There is absolutely no way Nuedexta has killed over 100 people. Maybe those put on it were taking 5 other meds and that did it. You reporters are idiots. You try to make a mockery of "this little red pill" but you fail to ever mention all the antipsychotic meds that run rampant in nursing homes. Most homes I go to label 80 year olds as schizophrenic to justify giving them risperdal or seroquel. Go ask some nurses why them and the doctors chart a resident as schizophrenic, and you'll get no medical proof they need any of those black box warning meds. But sure, right a largely bogus report to raise some eyebrows. The scum who used to work here are now gone, thankfully.

Lastly, ever hear of CTE? That was studied back in the 1920s under a different medical name and was believed to only exist in boxers. It took all the way until 2005 for it to be written about in NFL players and other people. Now everybody knows about CTE, and many former players also have PBA. How about that? Science does evolve, just like "climate change" you little tree huggers.

That is a very accurate comment there. The CNN article is really bad in the fact the reporters made themselves look very ignorant due to not fully understanding PBA, what crying and laughing can actually look like, and how it should be treated per the FDA. It’s actually a humorous article that just verifies President Trumps allegations of CNN being fake, full of drama, and twisted with most facts left out. It’s a big soap opera and is an embarrassment to all news reporters.

It is actually a great thing this did come out. For many reasons but a couple are,

1. It is proof Avanir is doing something right with a drug that is proven, tried, and true, for patients that suffer from PBA. Nuedexta (cleared and released by the FDA) is doing positive things in the PBA world for patients and their loved ones and the proof is right there in the results of the drug and many doctors and patients see it now, meaning an explosion of successful utilization in the PBA space (where it is indicated). Anytime a drug begins to get traction and take off the other side(whoever that is) hates it, attacks, and that never wins in the end but rather the company should continue marketing ethically, on label, cut all who do not, and that’s just what Avanir is about and will continue to do.

2. This article is so full of inaccuracies and embellished comments that doctors who were skeptical are now even more interested in learning more so they to can properly treat PBA where and when it is missed. CNN you did nothing but help the cause to Raise Awareness of PBA you idiots. I know that’s not what you wanted to do but that’s what you did.

3. Many more doctors eyes were opened to how bad and lop sided CNN will take things.

4. It exposes the ignorance of these reporters and CNN for not doing more homework to get the full and accurate truth. These guys do not even understand PBA in depth nor do they even come close to understanding the pharmacology behind Nuedexta. The article proves this to a very high level but the funny thing is it has intrigued many now to want to figure it out.

5. This article also suggests in a very large way that it just may have been motivated by some of these 1st and 2nd generation Antipsychotic companies because Nuedexta is possibly beginning to erode away their OFF LABEL business significantly in some cases and areas, meaning it is actually a glutamate issue via PBA going on caused by the primary condition either from a neurological disorder or brain injury and not true mania or psychosis like these companies so falsely push. Hmmm?? CNN you may way to look really close at this one.

6. Point 5 being said, CNN you may should go dig into what these Antipsychotic companies do, say, how they market, who they market to, why, and then dig really deep into how many patients are loosely andflippantly placed on antipsychotics for wrong reasons. I know you guys hate President Trump but you should check in with the government to see just how bad this Antipsychotic overusage actually is now then look into the lives it has destroyed. Then dig even deeper into the horrific side effects these drugs can cause. Many times people kill themself, die of cardiac events, get a horrible condition called Tardive Dyskinesia that cannot be cured, diabetes, and much more. Why, because these companies aggressively oversold these dangerous drugs by way of kickbacks, unethical selling, lying, misleading, etc... providers (outside scope of practice) to overprescribing these dangerous drugs when they should not ever have been initiated in the first place. Go dig into how often some of this class of drug is used for sleep. It will make you sick. I’ll stop there but could go on and on and on. One last thing, I would be willing to bet you Attorney Michael Moore and gang will be on this next wave of major class action lawsuits against the makers of Antipsychotics very soon. It will look a lot like what he did to the tobacco industry but probably worse.
O yea, I almost forgot, these newer Antipsychotics 2nd generation if you will do indeed cause this widespread horrible condition called Tardive Dyskinesia and It is for life once these rugs cause it. Please look that up as well. Then go do your research to see what these reps actually tell doctors and see if it all lines up. You’ll walk away disgusted. They knew all along but left that out. It’s really bad for folks who end up with it.

Now that will be and already is a story so if you want reality that’s reality and very real just make sure CNN to report it accurately because your history on facts and accuracy is not good so far.

Home office wannabe? I get it, the atypicals did it so it OK we do it too? What a moron. And CNN doesn't need to look at atypicals. FYI, young one, those companys paid billions in fines. In other words, they got caught and you will too.
 


CNN is the same network that said Hillary Clinton would be our next president, right? OH WAIT! The article has no credibility and it is obvious they have never stepped in a nursing home let alone have a loved one in a home.

I'm with you! Thanks CNN! We are working for a second class pharma company with less than stellar products, now everyone knows it! Even my friends and neighbors are embarrassed for me. But thanks CNN!

You shouldn't be working for a company if you don't believe in their product. Seems like this comment was written from CNN. So obvious. I had so many homes today tell me how thankful they are that their residents are doing so great. If a drug truly was not working for the last seven years, it would've been yanked along time ago. Drugs that don't work don't stay on the market. Let's give some nurses some credit. If I was a nurse and read that article I'd take offense. They're not idiots. When they see something work they will continue to believe it and use it. Not because a sales representative told them to. The sales rep brought awareness to a condition and the nurse and Dr. decide if they want to treat it. Simple.
 


One of the head nurses today put it eloquently....Scholarly articles are boring but trustworthy. Boring doesn't sell. She gave it as much credibility as a Cosmopolitan article or Wikipedia information. And why do the reporters keep coming on this site? Don't they have crappy reporting stuff that crappy reporters need to do? Each day that I go out there I am finding that people are laughing at this article.
 


the fact that deaths are linked to Nuedexta is totally FALSE.
Pushing staff and MDs to Rx outside of PBA is TRUE in the LTC arena. The reason this happened is two fold, staff would only here a portion of speaker programs as they were in and out of the room during lunch programs, mds could openly discuss an off-label question AND you had the likes of KT and CB really pushing the envelope. What ever happened to Tom Haak, he was an LTC rep getting 200+ scripts a week. I feel bad for a couple people taking the hit for LTC, they all did take advantage of the nursing home patients and Medicare/Medicaid. High goals = pressure to make numbers or be terminated. When I interviewed with MM he told me you have 6 months to get going or you were on a plan.
 






I agree. That is why this first rate pharma co had/has 90% + turnover. Because we deliver value to patients. Not because reps were pressured. Just keep growing and nobody will bother you, but 2 neg quarters in a row...watchout.

Its the same as if you were hired to be a reporter and write articles and didnt produce articles. You would be pressured too and fired for not doing your job. If I was hired as a physcian at a medical practice and then saw three patients all week, I would be fired. Its not different in the pharma world or any other business. Or how abut a pharmacist that couldnt keep up with the demands to fill prescriptions, they also have pressure or they're out. We could go on. We are hired to spread the word about PBA.

Haak is at Neurocrine now and running the same racket with Isidro and his facilities. Paying him to talk at his facilities and flagging patients for meds. A nurse working at one of the facilities said she was at a luncheon in the facility and it was the same thing he did for Neudexta. I only hope we don't see patients on meds without an order from a doctor, np or pa. The last time, there were a number of patients on Neudexta in the facility and no one seemed to know who ordered it.
