Steven,
Sorry if it sounds like I was talking about their patent. I was merely amazed at the similarity of the precise language the FDA letter demands when compare to the patent reviewer response I encounter before.
That said, there is no doubt that Xopenex is a better drug. The rewriting of the press release will hopefully clarify the situation and explain why it is better - i.e. that the same dose 0.63 mg of the R isomer works better alone than when mixed with the S isomer.

I was also wrong about the directors' register selling which occurs before 3/26/99 at a time(3/17 and 3/22) when SEPR was at around 140. Looks like a case of market timing instead. I will still vote against them for creating the panic which snowballed out of proportion.
