Simultaneously, what we identified was that, and this is all very known with these medications, the side effect rates are astronomical.
massive gastrointestinal side effects, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting.
People will go to the ER for this stuff.
And so you have this interesting dynamic where the demand was through the roof, but about 70% or 80% of patients were stopping the medication within 90 days because of very adverse reactions, like very serious reactions.
And so the compounding facilities have the ability to make medicine
In two circumstances.
One, when there's a drug shortage.
And two, when there's a clinical necessity for the patient.
When a provider says, for this patient, a dosing adjustment is necessary, a formula adjustment is necessary, a combination of therapies is necessary, a different form factor is necessary, any of those reasons.
So the legal framework allows for two things.
two ways in which you can compound.
For us, for about a year or two, we operated under both.
There was a shortage where patients could come get the exact same medication.
And then there was also a personalization exemption, which allowed us to personalize medicine for patients.
And I'm a really big believer when you step back and look at the healthcare system today,
The future of healthcare isn't, you know, patients getting one of three dosing regimens.
It's us understanding you, Ed, your body mass, your metabolism, your desires, your goals, and actually taking safe medicines approved by the FDA and personalizing them for you.
Like, it's an obvious iteration of
of where medicine should go.
When you think about precision medicine, everybody is different.
