Calm down? No harm done? Do you always take a casual attitude towards blatant lies made by companies you invest in? You were the one that got on my case for not restating the Viagra numbers minus placebo effect when doing a similar comparison with Vasomax. But that's ok. I'm not paid to make press statements about Vasomax nor do I work for ZONA or SGP. This guy does and unless he's a complete idiot, he knew exactly what he was saying. He knew that the numbers he was quoting weren't really the same. That is hype. That is a lie. If that doesn't concern you, then you are seriously screwed up and about to lose every cent you've invested.

Correction: the statement made by Ferguson in the street.com article referred to the frequency of successful sexual intercourse attempts by men on Vasomax versus Viagra not simply the improvement of erections. According to the Viagra web page, attempts at intercourse were successful 50% of the time with patients on Viagra according to patient diaries (including the placebo effect). This is equivalent to the type of comparison that Ferguson was referring to. However, Pfizer states that their clinical studies involved men suffering from varying degrees of ED whereas the studies quoted in the Journal of Urology abstract states that studies on Vasomax were conducting using men suffering from mild or minimal ED. Therefore, the comparison of successful attempts at sexual intercourse between Vasomax and Viagra is still misleading and imprecise. I figured I'd better point out my mistake before you or somebody else does. NOW I feel better.
