The action in the stock yesterday leads me to believe that something is very wrong here. Do they have enough money to market the product? Has hteir plant suffered another setback? Has the FDA said something negative? Has some brokerage firm issued a sell on VVUS? There has to be some reason!!!!

It appears misleading to toss about 40% for adverse reaction when at most it would be 40% of the less than 2% of men in trial who reported any adverse reaction. The figure could be more properly stated as less than 1% of men in trial had reactions worthy of mention.

Mike: How does "more frequently" become 40%? Exactly 1 patient in the Viagra clinical studies ever discontinued therapy due to vision adverse reaction. Not what most people would consider a big target market.

Good investing!
