That medication has not been released yet so it's hard to know. I think one person on the board has participated in the trial of it. They have a website which is www.zelmac.com. Not sure how much info is in there about the med yet. I guess once it is released we will have more info.
The zelmac site said the release date is 2002, but that doesn't seem real. I will post the exact page I saw that on: http://www.zelmac.com/products/index.html Scroll down to the Cardiovascular Metabolism and Endocrine section and there you will see Zelmac. The are saying that it is for Gastroesophageal reflux disease. Not sure why - maybe it's one of those cure all type meds.
They have received a contingentapproval letter from the FDA. Approval may be granted for release nextspring or slightly earlier depending on the results of data collected andreviewed from the most current study that just ended. ------------------ http://www.ibshealth.com/
Regarding the launch of Zelmac, the latest word I heard from the nurse I was linked up with when I participated in the clinical trial for this drug is that it may be available as early as this December. If I hear anything further, I'll let you know!
