I am sure this is money related. I was reading about Paxil CR, for I am currently taking Paxil, and they make it look like a new and improved drug! Many psychiatry sites have called it a marketing ploy for the patent is ready to expire and they need a new drug. Paxil CR is supposed to stop nausea which normally goes away after the first week if it is even experienced.
My old PD said that this would help my tiredness in the future when the drug comes out. Yeah right!
This is the same thing that the makers of Prozac did with their 'weekly dosing' wow! Imagine that it works for a whole week! What incredible technology!
They make some of the old into something not really new so that they can get a new patent. Pretty Cheesy!
