TUNA,

Based on a phone conversation with Vivus a while back ago I was advised that the information obtained via the Freedom of Information Act went something like this:

9 million prescriptions written to 4 million men resulting in over 430 Viagra linked deaths. This does not mention any other "adverse" reactions such as heart attacks and fainting spells due to the hypotensive effects.

Assuming a number of exactly 430 deaths on 4 million men who use(d) Viagra, I get a morbidity rate of one in 9,302.

CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT RATE???? THE VLAD SAYS F###### UNBELIEVABLE!!!!

WHERE IS THE FDA WHEN WE NEED THEM TO PROTECT US FROM AN UNSAFE DRUG????
