Dave...It looks like all they want is additional labeling for Viagra.
Viagra is already expected to have additional labeling for overseas
markets. What's the big deal if the group get's additional labeling in the USA????

>>I can't tell you how many other drugs they have done this with, but I know of at least three recent examples. <<

If that is the case then you would not mind posting the articles and which drugs they were would you?

Dave, I wholeheartedly agree with you!! That Dr. Wolfe is a publicity seeking jerk who deals in generalities, with no specific instances where the current Viagra labeling was insufficient...And where the hell has he been all these months when the media has splashed out all the Viagra news anybody could possibly absorb...Including the dangers of mixing Viagra with nitrates, and the warnings that elderly people with serious ailments are taking risks in engaging in sex...If they chose to do so and the exertion proves fatal, it is not the fault of Viagra use...Everybody knows, or should know, what risks Viagra entails under each circumstance...Dr. Wolfe is full of crap...

<<That group is a joke.>>

I don't think large corporations such as the Ford Motor Company would agree. When "that group" builds momentum and gets the public's attention they have the ability to take down the largest of corporate giants.
