Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004

Management`s Discussion and Analysis

Critical Accounting Policies, page 18

1. We believe that your disclosure related to estimates of items
that
reduce gross revenue such as cash rebates, returns, future rights
to
free or discounted products and other discounts and allowances
could
be improved as follows:

a. Disclose the nature and amount of each accrual at the balance
sheet date and the effect that could result from using other
reasonably likely assumptions than what you used to arrive at each
accrual such as a range of reasonably likely amounts or other type
of
sensitivity analysis.
b. Disclose the factors that you consider in estimating each
accrual
such as historical return of products, levels of inventory in the
distribution channel, estimated remaining shelf life, price
changes
from competitors and introductions of generics and/or new
products.
c. To the extent that information you consider in b) is
quantifiable,
disclose both quantitative and qualitative information and discuss
to
what extent information is from external sources, e.g. end-
customer
prescription demand, third-party market research data comparing
wholesaler inventory levels to end-customer demand. For example,
in
discussing your estimate of product that may be returned, consider
disclosing and discussing, preferably by product and in tabular
format, the total amount of product in sales dollars that could
potentially be returned as of the balance sheet date and
disaggregated by expiration period.
d. If applicable, discuss any shipments made as a result of
incentives and/or in excess of your customer`s ordinary course of
business inventory level.  Discuss your revenue recognition policy
for such shipments.
e. You should consider disclosing a roll forward of the accrual
for
each estimate for each period presented showing the following:
* Beginning balance,
* Current provision related to sales made in current period,
* Current provision related to sales made in prior periods,
* Actual returns or credits in current period related to sales
made
in current period,
* Actual returns or credits in current period related to sales
made
in prior periods, and
* Ending balance.

f. In your discussion of results of operations for the period to
period revenue comparisons, discuss the amount of and reason for
fluctuations for each type of reduction of gross revenue, i.e.
product returns, chargebacks, customer rebates and other discounts
and allowances, including the effect that changes in your
estimates
of these items had on your revenues and operations.

2. Please tell us the GAAP literature that supports capitalizing
the
$965,000 payment made to Nutrition 21, Inc. to buy out certain
future
milestone and royalty payment obligations and why you believe your
accounting complies with that literature.  Please tell us the
terms
of this agreement and the basis for your amortization period.

Statements of Operations, page F-4

3. Please tell us how your classification of customer programs and
incentive offerings that allow customers to earn promotional
merchandise as product selling expenses rather than cost of sales
complies with paragraph 10 of EITF 01-9.
Note 7. Segment and Significant Customer Information, page F-17

4. Please revise your filing to include the disclosure required by
paragraph 37 of SFAS 131.

adequacy of the disclosure in the filing reviewed by the staff to

federal securities laws of the United States.
