> I don't see how you can get a script for a med which has only just been approved but not yet manufactured or marketed. In fact, I spoke to BMS & they've informed me that there is as of today still no launch date on the books for EmSam, but that'll it'll probably take a couple of months to become available. From my research, I'd say it should be available withing the next 6 weeks, so I guess the pharma rep I spoke to was erring on the side of caution. Still, don't expect any script to be filled any time this month!
> BTW, PLEASE inform me if I'm wrong, RobertDavid! I've been waiting for this bloody approval for months. Don't feel I can wait much more (but I guess I will if I have to...)
> Good luck to us all.Well, I have a script, and I am looking at it right now. It is dated 11-18-'05. It is Rx'd, Selegiline Transdermal Patch 20mg - Apply 1 patch to skin QD, Doc's signature. #30. I am not expecting to have it filled til it is available at my local Pharmacy. You want me to fax you a copy? Richard
