quite correct
HRT is a hughe market in potential BUT
1/ not all women take hrt letst face it 10-15 % start with it
2/ hughe drop out rate > 50 %
3/ lots of competition
i know at least 20 products going from livial, kliogest, low dose oc pills, oestrogel, 4 types of patches etc..
not one has a 10 %
4/ price of products are not comparable with cardiac or gi medicatio,s
eg livial is consederd expensisve in belgium and sells for 1$ a day
total market in belgium should be arround 60 000 000 bfr divide by 40 to get $ ie 1500 000 $ on a population of 10 000 000 which in us should be 250 000 000 people 40 000 000 which one has to divide by 20 ie each +- 2 000 000 brutto
is this viable ????

either way i thank you for the response
if you see a major flauw in this please tell me then ill buy but untill then i wxait
