effirma?

Posted by floatingbridge on April 3, 2011, at 17:26:40

Came across a reference to a med called Effirma. Acts upon NMDA (ndma? ) receptors.

Used in Europe for a few decades....

Helps lower glutamate levels?

I finally am accepting a dx of fibromyalgia. It's been wicked awful....

(Failed cymbalta, lyrica, and have scrapped the AD approach.) (Readers' Digest version.)

I wonder why so long in Europe and not here? Must be a reason? A Link you probably read. Love Phillipa

Still the Google queen :)

Yes, that's what I read. Think businesses are jockeying for rights?

Read an investment article in Reuters Finance that with x number of patients currently dx'd with fibromyalgia, and the number waiting to be dx'd larger still, the patent holder would be a great stock bet.

Weird reading about a health condition from that perspective.

(I need a cranky emoticon to insert above.)
