Yes, that's right. But Viagra, Levitra and Cialis are all working on PDE5. And at least Viagra (and possibly Levitra which seems to be very similar) has some unpleasant side-effects. Cialis is not supposed to be so severely effected by these, but its long half-life is to a certain extent a concern.

Pharmacia's drug has a completely different target. This might give it an advantage (or maybe not). It should at least be worthwhile to test it out. Especially as Pfizer is paying the bill.
