Thanks, Archimedes.

There are a number of patients that currently receive home infusions of dobutamine/Milrinone. These are the obvious candidates for home use of Natrecor, and on a recent CC the company (or maybe a doctor they invited along) did talk about the potential for weekly home infusions for some patients.

This link (from 1998) discusses home infusion of inotropes (principally Milrinone):

If you are correct that Natrecor will rapidly replace both Milrinone and dobutamine in acute CHF, then SCIO is definitely a buy at these levels.
