DaiS, I am surprised that for those who find that Viagra does not work, only 1 in 5 would try MUSE. <<I think this (.5) is too optimistic for reasons already given by others on the thread. Let's say 20% of 84000 instead>>
These are men who are concerned enough about their condition to see an MD. If they are willing to risk life and sight for a pill why would they turn their backs on MUSE ? Could you repeat the reasons for this value ?

<<Of those it works for 10% stick to it (dropouts/cures?)>> The Vivus studies showed a 65% success rate with "one third of men reporting genital pain, causing some to stop". This would indicate a value of more than .4. How did you arrive at .1 ?
