its not pants on fire though

politifact actually confirms it......

they just disagreew tih the conclusion

@mer.at from what i gather, the politifacts statement and the statement tim got are not exactly addressing the same point.

yeah the site for the company is here

http://www.corcept.com/products.html

but the product they show is for Cushings disease

There is a warning because its Mifepristone

this literally all they make?

The antiprogestational effects will result in the termination of pregnancy

Yeah probably

I have a client who makes a single perscription

how common is Cushings or how expensive is this drug?

dunno

I heard someone was using unlicensed memes on this server.

https://www.korlym.com/hcp/

they link to this site

https://www.medicinenet.com/cushings_syndrome/article.htm

Huh?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cushing%27s_syndrome

GAH!~

Google is simultaneously telling me it's common and rare

http://www.corcept.com/discovery_development.html

"In addition to our work with mifepristone, we have developed over 300 proprietary molecules"

ah, perhaps they make their money through licensing

So what is with ford and cushings?

Are they saying she has skin in the game?

It would tie her to the morning after pill industry

she worked for a company show sellls a drug that treats cushings... which uses an ingredient used in abortions.

Ehhh, kind of a stretch

What drug?

the argument in what tim sent was that it screws with her research

Korlym

so arguably the drug wouldn't exist yet

although, that is the ONLY thing they sell.

at least whatever one she would be researching

at least, officially

they seem more like an R&D firm that licenses their discoveries

Primary usage is for pregnancy termination

"Our ruling
A headline said, "Kavanaugh accuser Christine Blasey exposed for ties to Big Pharma abortion pill maker… effort to derail Kavanaugh is plot to protect abortion industry profits."
Ford worked for a pharmaceutical company that sells Korlym, a drug that treats Cushing’s syndrome. The main ingredient in that drug is used in combination with another drug to induce abortions, but the doses differ. The company does not promote the drug for abortions; in fact, it requires that doctors rule out pregnancy in order to administer the drug.
We rate this statement Pants on Fire!" < Politifact
