How much you wanna bet that these pills are about to go past their 20 years and be available generic. This will short circuit that and give them a chance to continue to cash in after the normal time.

I don't know how it will work for someone like my dad, though, who has COPD and CHF, and so they have to give him less of one drug and more of another. Once you stack them all together in one drug, you're stuck with the dosages.
