Bill, According to my PDR (Physicians Desk Reference), Phentolamine is also currently produced by CIBA Pharmaceuticals in injectable form. It's an anti-hypertensive which has a duration of only 19 minutes. It's primary use is in the hospital to treat temorary elevation of blood pressure. No mention in the PDR of erections as a side effect. It seems to me that CIBA could produce their own form of Vasomax if they wanted to but they haven't bothered. Since ED has been associated with others factors such as smoking and obesity, it's reasonable to assume that many patients over 50 that might want to use Vasomax might also be on anti-hypertension drugs. I doubt that a Dr. would perscribe Vasomax to these patients since it might make them suseptable to bouts of hypo-tension. Also not a good thing. Can't you just see all these over 50 year olds passing out in the middle of sex because their blood pressure dropped too low after taking Vasomax? I agree with your assessment of ZONA 100% and I will take a short position immediately. Hank
