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
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.
they link to this site
Huh?
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
Problem with this
