TO ALL VIVITES,

I just got off the phone with the nurse at the largest urology center in my area (seven doctors). Here is a list of some of the Q and A.

VLAD: Can you tell me if you have had any feedback on Viagra over the
past few days?
Nurse: No, it just came out 1 or 2 days ago however we were involved in the original Pfizer clinical studies.

VLAD: What did your own study segment show?
Nurse: We had a 65% success rate across the board and a 30% success rate from placebo.

VLAD: Of that 65% that was helped how many had moderate to severe organic ED?
Nurse: The moderate to severe cases were not isolated in the study. The study included all forms of ED including psychogenic and idiopathic.

VLAD: Does your clinic use MUSE?
Nurse: Yes we do.

VLAD: What is your opinion of MUSE?
Nurse: Why have a good number of satisfied customers.

VLAD: What percentage of your ED cases responded well to MUSE?
Nurse: I would say at least 1/2.

VLAD: Of the individuals who MUSE worked on what percentage didn't continue use because of burning?
Nurse: A small percentage. Probably less than 10%.

VLAD: What was your criteria to establish that MUSE was effective?
Nurse: Ability to penetrate and have intercourse.

VLAD: Of those who were able to have intercourse what percentage had good rigid erections verses erections suitable for intercourse but not good turgid erections.
Nurse: I don't know but if you come in you can ask the doctor.

VLAD: Can you comment on your clinic's general protocol regarding treatment of ED?
Nurse: Our policy has been to always start with the less invasive products first. Now that Viagra is out we will start with it followed by MUSE then injections.

VLAD: How does this protocol compare with other clinics?
Nurse: To my knowledge most follow the same protocol of always trying the least invasive method first.

I hope this helped.
Come on guys! Pick up the phone and ask some questions and give the others some input. I'm feeling like the big mouth on this board.
