For your information (related to your question re the subject), I copied the following from my Popular Science Magazine, Issue July 2001..... Bunny (although this is not exactly pertinent to your question, perhaps it might be of interest.) ============================================ Sex Drug Ready to Rock and Roll (from Popular Science, July 2001) A new drug to treat erectile dyfunction called vardenafil may actually be more effective than Viagra. In clinical trials, the drug improved erections in 80 percent of the 580 men who took it. also reported an increased ability to complete sexual intercourse with ejaculation. Vardenafil is slightly different chemically from sildenafil, the chemical component of Viagra, making it nine times more potent. The end result is faster onset -- 20 to 30 minutes versus an hour for Viagra, and potentially fewer side effects. In the future, the competition will likely get even, eh, stiffer. Another drug in clinical trials called ciali that takes effect with 15 minutes and lasts up to 24 hours. It's like Viagra on steroids! For men who don't respond to pills, MacroChem is working on a rub-on gel. Vardenafil and cialis could hit the market by early 2002. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
