Great news in today's Washington Post: "A senior FDA official noted that only four of the deaths described in the reports clearly occurred after individuals took the drug. That number is too small to draw any conclusions, especially because about 1 million prescriptions for the drug have been filled since it went on the market, the official said. "This does not seem to represent a trend or a signal or something worrisome to us at this point," said the official, who asked not to be identified. The official added, however, that the agency expects to receive more reports over time -- in part because of news media attention to the drug. "We will continue our ongoing monitoring" to "see if something begins to say there is a signal here. Based on what we've got here, we're not at that point," the official said." In London trading: Drug group Pfizer (PFE - news) was quoted up $3/8 at $107 after the company said it had reviewed the circumstances surrounding the deaths of six people taking its impotence drug Viagra, and decided not to make any changes to the drug's labelling.
