Zebra: <<Big K, I'm not picking on you. ...This is typical of language that seeks to transfer the risk from the Pharma to the prescribing doctor without offering any guidance on the standard of care in assessing that risk.>>

Dr. Z: I never felt that you were picking on me. I can sympathize with the frustrations of being a doctor...I have three in my family.

However, your statements relate more to physician liabilities than investing in pharmaceutical stocks. If anything, any Big Pharma company has the resources and number of field representatives to better educate physicians on a single product than all the little Pharmas combined....One of the reasons that VVUS is continuing to seek out a larger marketing partner.

Best of luck!
