Open Q to longs&shorts alike.
Let's say Vasomax gets FDA approval. Let's further say it gains some patient acceptance. Is there anything preventing one of the generic drug houses from making phentolamine tabs?
I've noticed that a few months ago a lot of hay was made over the Vasomax pill's unique composition. Now the tone is as if Vasomax and phentolamine are effectively the same.
The generic drug house doesn't need to give an indication for their phentolamine preparation. I figure savvy doctors would write the prescription in an "open" manner allowing the generic.
Thoughts?
