Jim <<Just have to say that any study with 24.8% placebo response rate was not dealing with significant ED patients!When you net out the placebo % your are left with 50% true benefit from the drug Viagra at the highest recommended dose! NOT what the public has been lead to expect, is it?>> Jim: I disagree totally. Most physicians realize that ED has a very high placebo effect of between 20-30%. Moreover, there are not many drugs that have an overall efficacy rate of 77%-84% particularly for a therapeutic area where the oral efficacy rates was 30-40%. As one patient reported " If Viagra just gave me the placebo effect I 'll take it." One final point: at the 1998 AUA meeting, there will be two papers that will document "Disappointing Results" with non-oral ED therapies (see abstracts #903 and #905). The results of these two unfunded studies should strongly support the use of oral ED agents. Have PFun! BigKNY3
