Zebra: "Results are less promising in Steers' as-yet-unpublished study of 1,418 men
with the most "severe" impotence. Of those who took 50 or 100 milligrams of
Viagra for eight weeks, only 46 percent were able to have intercourse at
least "most of the time." For the placebo, the success rate was 8 percent."

This Steers study are stronger for Viagra than the original ones from Pfizer. Here is 46% viagra vs 8% placebo.

Question: Does anybody knows how the "severe" Steers patients were screen, at least the placebo effect is saying that the placebo group was a very poor performance group.

Well, at least is leaving some 54% of patients to try Muse.
