When I was working at a service station that did car repairs ... we had a few cases where the gear box was stuck. We would just get a small sledge hammer and hit the gear box ... problem solved.
But, that's mytakeonit

We're hobbled by the FDA no matter what advertising medium we use. Those black box warnings are a HUGE problem, in so many ways. Not trying to pick a fight here, just asking what is the difference between this car in the Indy Grand Prix this weekend and a car that would have "Afrezza" on it? Maybe a difference is this? (IOTW, maybe if the car only said Afrezza and had nothing remotely hinting at diabetes it would be okay?) www.sponsorship.com/iegsr/2016/02/08/Inside-The-Evolving-Pharmaceutical-Category.aspx
Lilly sponsored Chris Buescher in 2014 at the NASCAR Nationwide Series race at Homestead-Miami Speedway on behalf of Humalog Kwikpen and Greg Biffle in 2015 at the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race at Phoenix International Raceway on behalf of Jardiance, a drug for type 2 diabetes.
Each car featured the name of a medication, but not the condition it treats. Promoting medical conditions would prompt the need for product disclaimers, said Cammack.
“If you only have the name of the product and do not talk about the disease, you don’t need a disclaimer. Combining the name of a product and the disease that it treats is when those requirements come into play.” |

www.fda.gov/drugs/prescription-drug-advertising/reminder-ad-correctReminder ads give the drug's name but not the drug's use. The assumption behind reminder ads is that the audience knows what the drug is for and does not need to be told. A reminder ad does not contain risk information about the drug because the ad does not discuss the condition treated or how well the drug works.
Reminder ads are not appropriate for drugs whose labeling has a "boxed warning" about certain very serious drug risks.

"Appropriate" is not forbidden... The box warning was not appropriate either so I see no problem with going ahead with it anyways, except that antagonizing this authoritarian monster may not be the best policy at this point in time.

I'm pretty sure I am over-thinking it but ... Assuming it is allowed, how about maybe Mannkind doesn't want to put 'Afrezza' on the side of a driver's car until it can afford to put it on the side of a car it knows is more likely to be a serious contender than a possible embarrassment? According to this site, Ed Carpenter racing was tied as the worst Indy Car team at the start of the season. (Yes, I know it won last week.) the-race.com/indycar/rating-the-2021-indycar-driver-line-ups/And Conor, I'm afraid to say, is tied as one of the lowest ranked drivers this season: www.espn.com/racing/standings/_/series/irl In order not to risk hurting the 'Afrezza' brand, maybe Mannkind is happier to go with 'lifestyle' campaign type marketing (when it comes to race cars) for now. |

Mannkind can salvage this yet ...
"Just like Conor racing in the NTT IndyCar Series, Afrezza insulin is fast in and fast out!"

mnkdfann:
So using your logic MannKind didn't put 'Afrezza' on the billboards in Texas because the billboards would have been a "possible embarrassment?"

Beating a dead horse. Enough with the race car and let's move on to more useless subjects.

Useless or useful? :-) Agree, enough is enough of these petty subjects.

Too many people focused on what does not matter.
No PWD is going to dismiss Afrezza because the race car driver who personally uses it as well as being sponsored by the Company who developed and manufactures it just so happens to place in unfavorable positions in the race. Who gives a shit.
Conor represents the average man, who BTW, is what the grand majority of PWD are. Average people. I doubt any PWD cares whether or not Afrezza is being advertised by the last place guy or the first place hot-shot celebrity guy.
If anything, the average consumer forms a more personable connection when more average type of people are the ones promoting it (and in this case, also personally using it).
But, thatsjustmango’stakeonit
