RE SCRIPT #, How do they add up??? The company says they are producing (at the old plant only?) 1.8 MM units per month and selling (?) everything they make That comes out to 415,000 units per week (My reading of the post about Vivus production was 1.8 MM/mo not per quarter as was used in the calculation in this post that I am responding to) Assuming an average of 5 units per script that's 83,000 scripts per week So total scripts sold week of 4/24 = 83,000 week of 5/15 = 83,000 this week = 83,000 neither going up or down What is wrong with this picture?? Where is it going Someone asked whether they count the free samples as sold Do they count product delivered to Astra and Jennsen (sp?) as sold at that moment. Do Astra and Jennsen pay them on receipt ?
