Hi Tuck. I think I had drrx in the charity portfolio too, will have to go look. Anyway,I didn't expect approval today because PFE as much as said they expected delay due to mfg issue and some fda unsettled policy on this kinda abuse prevention drug. They didn't specify the mfg problem. I never expected this kind of drop on the crl. I can't find any specifics on the problem but as far as I know Remoxy is just fine. Fully expect subsequent approval and that problems are minor. But who knows for sure?

DuRect's (DRRX) other advanced candidate, also for pain, flubs P3, and the stock is off 47% after hours, well into penny stock status. Dunno if there's much hope for regulatory salvation; I have seen no sign that the issues raised in the CRL are being addressed with a response imminent. Even if they get their oxycodone formulation through, that market isn't without competitors. Haven't looked in quite a while to see if we're looking at major dilution to stay afloat.

Cheers, Tuck
