DaiS, Don't forget that we can't have refills without first having new scripts. If the new scripts slowly crawl upwards then the refills will also move upwards with about a 6 week lag time. Continued negative press regarding Viagra deaths and adverse effects may make doctors think twice before prescribing Viagra to men on high blood pressure meds or on Glucotrol. My main Question will be how many weeks will it take for new scripts to go up to 10,000? It took 3 months to go from 10,000 to current levels of the low 2,000s. I expect it will take at least 3 months to get back to the 10,000 level maybe even 6 months but I think we will get there by years end.
