In reply to "New & Improved" Prozac???, posted by steve on December 27, 1998, at 16:22:24
> I've recently heard that Eli Lilly has bought the rights to a drug that another company was making that, as I understand it, was suppose to be very similar to Prozac, but was an improved version (less side-effects... yeah, I'll believe that when I see it). Anyway, I was wondering if anyone knew the name (or research #) of this drug, when it may come out and what phase it is in.
If these might be helpful, here are two articles that appeared in the Detroit Free Press on this subject. The first article is "Maker of Prozac buys a better version" and is dated Dec. 8, 1998. The second article is titled "Drugmakers strive to improve on Prozac" and is dated Dec. 29, 1998.
