Did anybody read the Pfizer article in the WSJ print paper today?
It seemed to be the first print article that was realistic and
fair to the Viagra phenom. It started by announcing that Viagra
is selling like hotcakes (that wasn't their word, but it was
projected to give 1B in sales first year), but then presented some
concerned opinions about Viagra not meeting expectations as a miracle
drug (not working for everyone) and concern over abuse and
side-effects (dizziness, vision problems). Also mentioned web site
where you can get a prescription without seeing a doctor (there is a
30-min. interview -- I think phone -- and then you fill out medical
info on website). Anyway, this contributed to concern over abuse by
interviewed.

Did anyone else read it? Opinions? BKNY?
