Gregg22, The reason that Viagra gets to remain on the market is because it is the only pill now available that makes old men's limp dicks hard PERIOD! Add to that Pfizer's lobbying clout and big $$$ influence and we have a company that has a license to KILL. Look at all the other drugs that were pulled off the shelves by the FDA in the last 2 years for a number of deaths and adverse reactions that is miniscule as compared to Viagra. Look at how Japan approved Viagra faster than any other drug has been granted approval and Japanese woman are still waiting for the day that birth control pills are legalized. It's the exact same reason ie Drug that makes older men's limp dicks hard gets preferential consideration regardless of the safety considerations. Vivus has been playing against a stacked deck since the begining of 1998. The FDA had a hissey when they used a woman's voice in their MUSE TV add yet these guys are dropping like flies on Viagra and the FDA still maintains that the drug is safe. What a crock of sh@#^t!!
