REPORT

hi, I have a metal plate in my neck since 2005, and the pain has worsened to say the least. My spinal cord is now being compressed and the outlook is nothing but GRIM! The original opana were helping to an extent, then the ER's came out and I was litterally unable to move. I was switched to oxycontin ER and they are no different. I really hate the "druggies" that messed this up for people who are in legitimate need for pain medications and will unfortunately need them forever which I despise. Please tell me where I can call, write, be whatever I can personally do to have my voice heard on this issue, as it is very important to me. Also, what is the best open discussion place to go to keep up with the changes that will be made in the future. Thankyou, Mea

The new generic Opana-Oxymorphone works so much better on pain relief than the brand does. FDA goes back to court about this in May. Everyone needs to let the FDA know that the Oxymorphone works better than the plastic ones do. Endo states they do but they don't. The FDA are getting facts together to decide if all pain meds brand or generic should be made into those plastic pills. We as Chronic Pain patients needs to let them know something is wrong, the plastic meds do Not relief our pain. There has to be a lot more of us than the druggies. Our voices should count. Endo wants this to happen. Opana made them a lot of money now its not. There is all kinds of information on line about all of this. Everyone needs to read it.

Competitive Advantage

U.S. law is intended to foster competition in the drug industry. Whenever a patent on a drug expires, the Hatch-Waxman Act is supposed to make it relatively fast and easy for competitors to put generic versions on the market.

Such competition is good for consumers, health care providers, the government and everyone else who pays for prescription medicines because it slashes the price of drugs. “The first generic version of a drug causes the price to drop dramatically. The second generic onto the market drops the price to peanuts,†says Prof. Marsha Cohen of University of California Hastings Law School.

These price drops can grievously injure the profits of innovative drug companies, so these businesses have a powerful incentive to delay generic competition to their popular products for as long as possible. “Given the amount of money involved—sometimes billions per year, often hundreds of millions per year—any additional exclusivity period is worthwhile. Even an additional six months of exclusivity can bring nine figures in additional revenue,†says Anthony Fitzpatrick, a partner at Duane Morris.

Hello,

There is no way a stranger can really know what your pharmacy will or will not be able to fill for you since that is based solely on the pharmacy's discretion and whatever policies they have based on your specific prescriptions. I would just give them a call, I'm sure they will be able to clear this up for you.

If you have any more questions or information to add, please post back!
