Promotional article on non-notable product; article evidently self-written by company; would recommend merger per WP:PRODUCT but seems to be freestanding company. Coretheapple (talk) 22:39, 12 November 2013 (UTC)
- Delete I see no notability for the company or the products. They make a low-dose aspirin, but so do many others. All awards are trivial. T DGG ( talk ) 01:14, 13 November 2013 (UTC)
- Delete - yeah, I'd say the product is the more likely of the two to be notable but I don't even think it is there yet. The company certainly wouldn't seem to pass WP:CORPDEPTH. Stalwart111 01:38, 13 November 2013 (UTC)
- Delete. The sources currently in the article don't indicate any kind of national or international notability. It's a Denver company that has managed to distribute some samples and press releases in the Denver area. If it's a real breakthrough it'll be written up in serious medical journals. I don't see them.

- Delete for now - It seems they've only recently received more news attention according to a Google News search. The CNBC article states they were recently being sold in Walmart and CVS (which are good connections) and plan for Rite Aid and Walgreens in 2014. They also seem to have connections to four billionaires so, again, I'm sure they're getting more attention now. Also, a Google News archives search provided some press releases and one news article here and some results pre-2010 that is not relevant to this Urgent Rx. Clarifying with "2010" and "Jorgan Eisenberg" did not provide any more results. Emphasizing that there's more newer coverage than older are these news links here, here, here (this one even states that he worked on it a long time and "after raising funding in 2010, UrgentRx is only now just going after a national launch") and finally this (NY Times). Alot of these links are very good and the company seems to be off to a good start but we should wait at least 4 to 6 months and see if the success stays. No prejudice towards a future article and I'm willing to keep an eye on the article for future use. SwisterTwister talk 18:44, 14 November 2013 (UTC)
