THE DRUG

Charlie,

The name of the drug that Dr. Mitsumoto prescribed is rizuole AKA rilutek. It extends the life of a person with ALS by a few months, but only if they begin taking upon very early onset. That is why he wants you to start it, just in case.

The phone number to find out about receiving financial assistance with it is 1-800-745-8835.
Check with your insurance to see how much of it they will reimburse.

You should get all your info so that you can make a decision ASAP.

And, by the way, maybe you should give Shmuel a try. What do you think?
