Part of a story in thestreet.com on getting the drugs in Mexico has this little blurb. *************************** .....We started slow. And very quickly we found out es muy facil to buy Viagra in Tijuana. No prescription necessary. Hey, no approval necessary either. (It was approved in Mexico late last week, but hasn't been launched.) The first drug store, Farmacia Victor, told us they would have it "Manana," that overused word in Latin America that can mean anything from later to not if you were the last customer on earth. This time the answer seemed closer to the former meaning. We were told the pills would cost us 90 pesos, or about 20 bucks each. Griffin prodded me to ask about Zetamax, the Mexican name for Zonagen's Vasomax, which was approved last week and supposed to be in stores by now. "Manana," we were assured. The pharmacist showed us a marketing flier that indicated they were going to offer a "Buy One, Get Three Free" Z-Max pill sale. They were selling the Max for 10 bucks a pill.
Griffin had to have that sheet. "Can you believe this? It's baaad to give away your drug just as you launch it," the short-seller said gleefully, betraying an urgency that revealed the pain the Zonagen shorts have felt in recent weeks.....
