Who invented the Contin system?
The article about Napp Pharmaceuticals, who are based in Cambridge, UK, says they developed the Contin slow-release system in the 1970s. They used to call it "Continus," presumably meaning "continuous." They were best known at one time for the drug PhylloContin, a slow-release oral formulation of aminophylline. This company was bought by the Sackler brothers in 1966. Presumably the Contin system was licensed or sold to their US company. NRPanikker (talk) 22:28, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
I dont understand
no good summary in whole article of what are issues are these the issues (1) addictive - I knew that years ago and never took it. so why an issue (2) 12 hour - is 12 hour proven bad or not? did FDA not approve it? (3) marketing - why is that not legal? is not greed cornerstone of America? did it not say it can be addictive - as usual wiki allwos crap articles — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.174.191.14 (talk) 15:26, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
Mundipharma (new AP article)
The Shanghai correspondent for Associated Press published a long article yesterday about Mundipharma: Fake doctors, pilfered medical records drive Oxy China sales. Fascinating read. Leaving the link here in case anyone wants to review it and perhaps incorporate any of the information into the article. Schazjmd (talk) 23:24, 20 November 2019 (UTC)
