Painkillers like Oxycontin, Percocet, and Vicodin, have been prescribed by primary physicians, surgeons, dentists, and other healthcare providers to patients suffering from varying levels of pain. Though these medications have proven to be an effective source of pain relief, they have also proven to be highly addictive. In fact, it has even been reported that there are more cases of a drug overdose and deaths from prescription painkillers than heroin or cocaine. While there are a number of factors that play into this opioid epidemic, educating doctors and patients on alternative solutions to managing chronic pain is a great place to start combatting this nationwide crisis.

Le pleaded guilty to multiple felony impersonation counts. Walgreen’s agreed to the settlement to avoid being charged with consumer fraud in Alameda and Santa Anna Counties.

Pain management is one of the most common reasons for the use of medical cannabis products. However, despite many jurisdictions – including Canada, Germany, and the Netherlands – now allowing the prescription of medical cannabis for this purpose, there remains little ‘high-quality’ evidence to support, or oppose its efficacy. Madden et al. (2018) set out to review the evidence available in order to determine the efficacy of medical cannabis when employed in the management of various forms of musculoskeletal pain. The researchers analysed various studies that assessed the use of cannabinoids in the treatment of arthritis pain; back pain; postoperative pain; and trauma-related pain. It is estimated that up to 30% of the population may suffer from a non-cancer-related pain condition. As such a high percentage of people suffer from these conditions, the development of simple and safe therapies is an essential area of research. This is particularly important as the therapeutic options for people with chronic pain are increasingly limited.

Eli Lilly is set to invest $400m to boost the capacity of its manufacturing facilities at its technology centre campus in Indianapolis, Indiana, US. The move is intended to meet the increasing demand for the company’s existing medicines and to support the production of future drugs in its pipeline. Lilly will use the capital to add enhancements to facilities that manufacture insulin, boost capacity for its diabetes portfolio and as initial capital for future drugs. Furthermore, the company expects the investment to create nearly 100 jobs in manufacturing. Eli Lilly chairman and CEO David Ricks said: “These investments demonstrate Lilly’s commitment to our manufacturing footprint in Indiana and the US and have been made possible by the tax reform measures passed by Congress in 2017. “With more capital available as a result of tax reform, Lilly and other Indiana companies are able to re-invest and expand production here at home.” The investment will bring capacity and technology upgrades to the company’s active ingredient, syringe filling, device assembly and packaging operations.

Eli Lilly’s Taltz has beaten AbbVie’s blockbuster Humira in a psoriatic arthritis study involving patients who hadn’t been treated before with a disease-modifying drug, but only just. Lilly reported last year that the SPIRIT-H2H trial had shown Taltz (ixekizumab) met its primary endpoint of superiority to Humira (adalimumab) as measured by the proportion of patients who saw their disease activity cut by 50% as well as complete skin clearance, without providing the data. At the Annual European Congress of Rheumatology (EULAR) in Madrid it has now revealed that the proportion of patients who achieved the primary endpoint at 24 weeks was 36% with Taltz and 28% with Humira, which just met the threshold for statistical significance with a P value of less than <0.05. Breaking down the results, the IL-17 inhibitor was found to be around the same as Humira on the 50% improvement in disease activity (ACR50) score – at 51% versus 47% with AbbVie’s drug – and had a stronger impact on the skin clearance (PASI 100) measure (60% versus 47%) with a P value of 0.001. The results of the open-label phase 3b/4 trial show that most of the benefit over Humira appears to come from resolving the skin symptoms of psoriatic arthritis, an indication for which Taltz was approved in 2017 after getting the go-ahead initially in plaque psoriasis in 2016.
