>>Sounds like someone should write a letter to the editor. Linda, I agree, perhaps someone with an M.D. would be best. This is just the first of what will be MANY "trend" articles on the "hard-on pill." Elle and Vogue will probably cover it too, and maybe soon. The Bazaar article said that during clinical trials someone "broke in" to a locked box to steal the Viagra. Does anyone want to comment on my claim that this drug will have have a high potential for abuse, and that this (IMHO) will lead to its scheduling as a controlled substance by the DEA? I'll wager even money that within a year of FDA approval, DEA will file a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking to place sildenafil in Schedule III. Any takers? David
