All Right Vladimer, You win. I give up. I placed an order to buy back at $7.75. And as I'm always right, this will happen soon. Very soon!!!!!!

>>Others who have posted in the past eg Mark S. or Tokyo where did you get your data from? <<

I mostly did analysis of data posted by others. Also, for a few weeks, IMS had free press release stories on their website comparing Viagra's explosive script growth to VVUS and others. I guess IMS has decided that Viagra's no longer front-web page news.

I'm not going long again until I see some script #'s.

On an anecdotal level (double hearsay), the one person I have ever met who uses Muse told a mutual friend that he is now using both Muse and Viagra. Viagra alone (which he tried for a couple of weeks) did nothing for him, but taken with Muse he is getting better results than with Muse alone. I have met this M-user, but have never spoken with him directly about this subject, so take this FWIW.

This script data showed up on AOL today.
There is no way of knowing if it is valid, but it's
all I've seen for 5/15.

My analysis:

If these script numbers are accurate, it clearly signals a slowing
of the decline.

New scripts off 8.3%, the lowest % and unit drop since the Viagra introduction.

Refills off 6.1%, second lowest % & unit drop

Total off 7.1%, lowest % & unit drop.
