Here is a copy of a yahoo post regarding a WSJ article to be in this mornings edition. I think this article should give us a little boost tomorrow as it seems that as of the last 3 months Vivus stock price is related more to the image of Viagra than the fundamentals of the company.

Deaths of Men Taking Viagra
Point to Limits of Drug Testing

By NANCY ANN JEFFREY and ROBERT LANGRETH
Staff Reporters of THE WALL STREET JOURNAL

Two months and nearly two million men into the Viagra craze, concern is
growing about the possibility of unanticipated side-effects and adverse
reactions when the impotency pill is taken with other medications.

Federal regulators Tuesday disclosed 10 more deaths of men who were
taking Pfizer Inc.'s new drug, in addition to the six deaths already reported.
In several of the 16 cases, the patients were taking other medications that
hadn't been formally tested with Viagra in human trials.

That raises an unsettling prospect: What if
Viagra is hazardous when taken with other
medications, which Pfizer and the U.S. Food
and Drug Administration have yet to identify?
