Moridin920 posted:just a reminder that the company that makes EpiPens, the poo poo you need to carry with you if you have a bad allergy so you don't literally die, cranked the cost to $600 a pair over the course of the last year or so. There's too many kids w allergies anyways, this could help thin the herd out

It costs 60K for leukemia lmaokazr posted:one of the cool side effects of this drug will literally be "causes cancer" Unlikely considering monoclonal antibody therapy is literally used as a cancer treatment

late life care is just a dance between staving off cancer, heart disease and brain degeneration until the almighty takes you anyway so who cares if it would be cancerous anyway

I did clinicals this year in a long term care facility, which was almost exclusively people with some form of dementia in various stages. It was pretty much the worst experience of my life. Highlight was telling a guy with a three minute memory who was running for president. "Hillary." "Oh. that makes sense. what about republicans?" "Donald Trump." "poo poo"

This will fail, because all Alzheimer's therapies fail. Worse is that they fail expensively in Phase 3, because people are desperate and good at lying to themselves. Commercial development needs to stop until we know what we are doing, but it won't. Everyone will keep dumping more money on this garbage fire because they've spent too much to quit now, and they're convinced the next $400,000,000 lottery ticket will be different.

Skeleton Ape posted:Yeah, they should tell people in medical studies that there is no guarantee that this will work, it won't make things worse, or you will even be receiving the treatment. I can't believe they don't do that I signed up for a trial for a new hayfever drug & at the interviews they made a massive point of explaining there was a 1 in 3 chance of ending up on a placebo. Seeing as I'm hosed without my normal pills I quit at that point, I was working at a garden nursery & needed to be able to work.

I'm not really bothered about this news to be honest. I'm pretty sure I would remember if I had something as serious as Alzhiemers.

I feel like Alzheimers would be okay if you rolled with the "always say yes" improv role with one important modification: winning the lottery. Like if I start asking where Billy is, don't tell me that he died back in aught-9, tell me he won the lottery. I'll be super stoked.

Will this "cure" work on all kinds of dementia and senility, or just Alzheimer's?
