John, Assuming doctors work a 5 day week (I know some work on Saturdays but most of the scripts are written out Monday thru Friday) we have a daily increase of 12.5%. Week ending May 22: 5,370/5 = 1,074 total daily scripts Week ending May 29: 4,834/4 = 1,209 total daily scripts 1,209-1,074 = 135 135/1,074 = .1256983 Again, on a daily bases we saw a 12.5% increase in script numbers.

Thanks for posting script data for Muse. Other than with a subscription to IMS-America, how can the script data be obtained weekly in a timely fashion? Anyone care to list potential sources or url's for this data? Live Long & Prosper, 4-Bob
