Report: No Scientific Evidence For Using Neurontin Or Topamax In Bipolar Disorder"-April 2008
Neurontin vs. Placebo: for Bipolar Disorder, the sugar pill won
HERE
.."the epilepsy-med review came courtesy of the 2004 Neurontin marketing settlement, under which Pfizer paid $430 million to settle off-label allegations. Some 94 percent of the drug's sales in 2002 were off-label, the government said at the time."

Epilepsy Drug Approved by FDA Promoted for Psychiatric Uses: TOPAMAX:
"The government alleged that Ortho-McNeil Pharmaceutical promoted the sale of Topamax for off-label psychiatric uses through a practice known as the "Doctor-for-a-Day" program. Using this program, Ortho-McNeil hired outside physicians to join sales representatives in their visits to the offices of health care providers and to speak at meetings and dinners about prescribing Topamax for unapproved uses and doses."

dream a little dream
maybe, i should be consulted.
as the primary marketing target (as a woman).
I cannot remember anything beyond, the "V".
Kinda like those tampons and maxi pad products that change their packaging on a monthly basis. truly, you should watch your market a little closer.
Some of us are free spirits with nothing to lose, and everything to gain.
Like menopause, or something.
V-Flow
the next gotta have it product.

VIA PharmaGossip: Friday, April 30, 2010, Jay Byrne - V-Fluence and the AstraZeneca Seroquel connection.
PharmaGossip says, "What is the AstraZeneca Seroquel connection, you ask?
It looks like Byrne's company have a contract with AZ to monitor what is being said about Seroquel on the blogosphere.
But their system has a fault and one of those being watched got into the watchers system!
LOL
Explain that to your client Jay!"

Well, F-luence, or whatever it's called, has a problem. It has no communication skills - no more than it's clients.
If it thinks that what is being said online is a threat to it and its clients, then it should understand how it (and they), are perceived. It's projecting itself onto those it's "analysing," and when it makes a pronouncement, it says more about itself than about any of those it's watching (because it never asks for clarification, to check whether its initial perceptions are correct).
No communication skills. None, whatsoever.

If this bottom feeder thinks (like his old boss Bill Clinton seems to) that he can somehow "correct" or "counter" the blogosphere, he probably thinks he can command the times.
If he actually COULD do this, he's sitting on a 20 Billion dollar market cap. Since he's not on said market cap, we can file him away where he belongs. Probably under a rock.
