VLAD,

DO you really believe that LONG TERM Vivus holders would throw in the towel at this point knowing what's on the horizon? I doubt it.
Hell, the party has just begun, although a year later than expected.

VLAd, in regards to AUA and Viagra. It no longer matters what blue smoke and mirrors gets thrown out there by the prestidigitators ( wheeyyy, do I still remember how to spell that one? I hope it's correct, if not somebody please correct me,gg ), ie " performing magicians ".
The market has spoken. That is the ultimate arbiter. Viagra sales are dalling after one of the largest and still on going drug launch in memory if not history, by PFE and the media. It is sheer miracle that Vivus survived and it did so only because of the two drugs' ( alprostadil and prazosin ) pharmacologic and clinical fundamentals.

I am waiting for Viagra black box instructions. It is only a question of time,

TA

Vivus still playing things close to the vest. Not wanting to be overly optimistic. They said today they still expect the year to be as previously forecast. Also only mentioned the $ 4 MM already paid. No mention of when the other $ 4 MM is expected. Exceopt to not mention it as a possibility in 2nd Q.

I think the overcaution is just fine as it will continue to build up the pressure for the final break.
