Pierre,

I did mean the osteoarthritis market and thank you for the
insights.

I don't mean to put you on the spot; but, is it possible
for you to share your own reaction to the opportunity to
prescribe Pennsaid over other NSAIDS. I see you are a
physician. I'd love to hear any thoughts you have on this.
For instance would you see few or many applications?

One more question if I may. How long would you expect a
bottle of Pennsaid to last a patient?

Thank you for helping me understand more about the product.
I never thought about the types of applications you mentioned.

Pierre,

Glad to hear you say that. Someone on this thread claimed the Edmonton Oilers were using Pennsaid at one time. It seemed plausible to me given that Glenn Sather is on the board of directors. This interests me because while we may not be able to get endorsements for a prescription product, the practices of professional athletes are well scrutinized by the press. The most recent example is an increase in the sales of a steroid product (I forget the name) when word got out that Mark McGuire uses it.
