Gregg,

If you are right about current death counts and the black boxing of Viagra, it will forever change the way physicians prescribe the drug. Any physician who does prescribe Viagra to a patient with CVD will be setting him/herself up for a malpractice lawsuit if that patient has a coronary. The black box will eliminate the discretion of physicians to "use with caution.." as currently labeled. It will clearly mean that Viagra should not be used in the CVD patient PERIOD! Doctors who decide to ignore the black box will have to learn the hard way.
