Incredibly proud to see this come to life.

Getting the right people in place was step one—and these two are exactly who we need.

There’s still a lot of work ahead, but the foundation is strong.

Humbled to lead this and fully aware weight.

Let’s build something that lasts.

Ok, here is the big lesson learned:
💡 When setting up the transfer device the Balfaxar vial MUST be on a solid flat surface so you can push down with force
- We observed team members just connecting the 2 vials, and this led to a loss in the seal & increased transfer times
#pharmRx #SkyRx #PharmSky
🚨 Help needed!

We recently switched to Balfaxar and are having issues with reconstitution.

Any tips or tricks? Nurses are reporting times > 10min which is not ideal.

Thanks!

Now this was the last thing I thought would be on my feed today. Not the famous Plato trial
An investigation published by The BMJ raised concerns over the 15 years' old landmark PLATO that was used to gain worldwide approval for AstraZeneca's anti-platelet drug ticagrelor (Brilinta in 🇺🇸)

Still more to come but I’m intrigued and want to get fda or few more sources before but me and @brian Gilbert chatted about this in Pharm SO Hard Live
🔥 FDA just *rejected* full approval for Adnexxa 🔥

likely due to increased thrombosis risk in ANEXA-I trial

IMHO the best strategy is to keep this off your hospital's formulary (thereby avoiding endless circular debates about Adnexxa vs PCC)
