>>you would assume in a month if there were 20k new scripts written that total scripts would jump from 40k to 60k next month?

No.

Don't think so.

Keep in mind new scripts are not all new in the sense of a patient starting for the first time on the drug. Eg. If a script is written for a single fill - then it will be an NRX and so will be the next script. In fact each time a new script is written - even if for the same drug/dose/patient, the first fill is an NRX.

With patients who may be titrating up the dosages there will be an even greater number of relative NRX's.

My read - and others who understand this better can correct me, is that the scripts are ramping slowly. And we have not yet seen the effect that gCoreg will have.
