Wow..Online Viagra pushers sure are touchy... I was checking out Viagra Cafe (www.viagracafe.com) when I came across the following statement: "While there is no evidence that Viagra has caused death, individuals should be aware that sexual activity increases cardiac risk" which is what Vivus is pounding the table as not true! vivus.com vivus.com BTW, the second link (which is part of the AUA abstracts is broken at vivus.com!) Anyways, all I said is that the study contradicts their statement and asked if they ever thought of selling alternatives (I'm aware that it may be impratical to sell MUSE via the net). A doctor fires a note back starting off with a Dr. Pepper analogy, saying if people who die, drink Dr. Pepper..blah...blah... second he says far more people have taken viagra than died (duh...no kidding?) in conclusion he says that there is no medical evidence that Viagra causes people to die. I NEVER said in my note that Viagra kills people, just that sex with MUSE does not increase the cardiac risk to patients. The question of Viagra safety has gotten people on full alert.
