It assumes all of your patients are abusers first as opposed to patients first. The only purpose to use these techniques is to extend product lifecycle. That is all. All of the products currently work as intended if taken as directed. Therefore I think Remoxy is on the right track. It essentially will be the first approved "generic" to OxyContin. It will do the same thing-reduce pain and be dosed the same-2x per day but be able to tell a better story about a certain problem and possibly take market share before Purdue's reformulation is approved. Also, show me any study that shows a difference in endpoints on immediate vs. sustained release oxycodone. THEY DO THE SAME THING. So an immediate release tamper resistant would have good uptake because it would be able to take market share away from sustained release oxycodone. Just don't put a poison in it that doesn't work.

Then it took the same lab 355 mins (6 hours) to extract a TRACE of the active abuseable ingred from OxyADF. Niacin doesnt do THAT. This is way beyond niacin. Think the word "patent" because you'll be reminded of that word in global proportions once it's FDA approved and is being prescribed. Keep trying, but the truth that Acura will succeed is going to slap you in the faces. Regarding the niacin issue which this so called “report” makes light of:

Your site had only one link on the ENTIRE site, and it was to the rant about Acura. Once you were confronted on it suddenly 24 hours later there were other articles that were linked as well. Coincidence? That alone clearly indicated a sole mission to bash Acura, and you guys should have thought about that before you and Castanza posted links to your informative research. Hey McNamara -

Probably nothing better to do. Nice try paranoid guy, and best of luck with those short positions.
