betty,

No need to put on your seat belt.

The upwards recovery of Vivus will be a slow but steady process.

My own targets are 15 to 17 by Q3's report and 22 to 24 (thats right jack, 6 more months) by Q4's report. Based on US script data and info on international sales given on the 9th, the Anal_ysts should be better at estimates as they don't have a clue regarding international sales. Also, remember costs on construction and equipment on the new plant are one time deals taken in up to Q2 and these costs will not be repeated.
