Larry, I didn't know about the tape that could go home with patients! I've heard that much of the Muse complaints of slight pain have been related to cock-pit errors regarding application so to speak. There have been two or three very positive posts regarding product detailing to GP's. This process is like turning an ocean liner. Slow, but sure. I hope your 2 buck pop was X many shares! Frostman

Larry: A good post. I'm not a responder often but I view the thread constantly as I have been in Vivus since the IPO. Yes, I rode it from 7 to 40 and down again. The fact is that Vivus is here, viable and a good solution for a percentage of men that can't be helped (or, indeed, might be harmed) by Viagra. Pfizer is causing the market to explode and, remember, estimates are that this could be a $5b market. Vivus only needs a small part of that to be an outstanding success. What I liked about your post is a clear simple 'let me ask the doctor" approach. I wish there was more of that on this board instead of much of the static that exists. Here's also to Frostman who is always a reasonable voice. Check IMRI as well for a company that will benefit no matter what treatment is utilized. dprla
