You don't think statins work?3 billion market cap for a drug that didn’t seem to work as well as they say.
But I guess one could say the same about SSRIs and Lipitor
They work, just not very well. NNT to prevent 1 adverse cardiovascular even is somewhere between 50 and 300 over the course of several years depending on what study you read. I’m not saying people at risk shouldn’t take them. Just suggesting they don’t work nearly as well as advertised.You don't think statins work?

I never thought it was superior.
My n=1 (me) I got about 80 hrs out of my exparel block with my last shoulder surgery. But I hated not being able to do anything about the phrenic involvement that came along with it. At least with a catheter (first shoulder surgery) I could turn down the pump a little.Blade: "I've done approximately 70,000 blocks with exparel and I have gotten 72+ hours of total pain relief on 99%+ on them here are 4 different copy paste articles to back up my views"
Depends on how superiority is valued i guess.
And that was just a busy weekend.Blade: "I've done approximately 70,000 blocks with exparel and I have gotten 72+ hours of total pain relief on 99%+ on them here are 4 different copy paste articles to back up my views"
Damn. And here I was hoping I wouldn't have to screw around with perineural catheters anymore after residency.
