“We have 10 classes of drugs that can lower blood sugar. We can lower blood sugar in people. We need ways to lower blood sugar that reduce the complications of diabetes. We're not going to hurt anybody if we raise the bar here." This poor feller must be living under a rock, but I do hope someone at FDA will kindly let him know that Afrezza was approved years ago. if you can heal the symptoms but not affect the cause it’s quite a bit like trying to heal a gunshot wound with gauze

What are the odds of Afrezza being brought up at either 8:50 or 11:05 Thursday morning?

What are the odds of Afrezza being brought up at either 8:50 or 11:05 Thursday morning? Slim to none during the FDA presentations. Only chance of it getting mentioned is if someone in the public hearing says something or asks specifically about it IMO.

I don't see an implication other than V-Dex posting what they believe is relevant information. There are many diabetes treatments on the market today and many of these drugs come with dangerous side-effects. V-Dex has always been an advocate of how safe Afrezza is. Perhaps they simply posted the link to build awareness of the dangers of other diabetes treatments.

Too bad Medicare doesn’t cover Afrezza. Hopefully it will soon.

Medicare steps up the fight against diabetes "For those on Medicare and at risk for diabetes, you're covered for two blood sugar screenings each year at no out-of-pocket cost to you." "If you're diagnosed with diabetes, Medicare will help pay for blood sugar self-testing equipment and supplies, as well as insulin and other anti-diabetic drugs. In the event of diabetic foot disease, it will also help pay for therapeutic shoes or inserts as long as your podiatrist prescribes them." "With a written order from your physician, you can sign up for training that includes tips for monitoring blood sugar, taking medication and healthy eating."
