LOL (uh...that was a joke in case anyone was wondering. givin drugs tuh kids is bad m'kay).Speaking of drug patent-extension tricks (see reply I just made to CAM), usage by kids is in fact one of the tactics being tried as we post. I'm not sure of the details, but Bristol Myers Squibb has received a patent expansion on its blockbuster diabetes med Glucophage, but for the new childrens' indication only. Even though the generic manufacturers are now free to make Glucophage, they can't because they're logistically unable to issue a not-for-kids indication. So BMS will remain the only manufacturer for awhile. Or something along those lines...
