Men who take Lilly's Cialis once per day experience normal erectile function, study finds
INDIANAPOLIS — Men who took an erectile dysfunction drug made by Eli Lilly experienced normal erectile function when taking it once a day as opposed to taking erectile dysfunction treatment on an as-needed basis, according to a new study.
The study, published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine, found a greater percentage of men who had an incomplete response to as-needed treatment with phosphodiesterase type 5, or PDE5 inhibitors, a drug class that includes Lilly's Cialis (tadalafil), compared with those who took Cialis once a day.

Wistar Institute researchers exploring a universal influenza vaccine that would eliminate annual flu shots
PHILADELPHIA — A team of scientists at The Wistar Institute has determined that it might be possible to stimulate the immune system against multiple strains of influenza virus by sequentially vaccinating individuals with distinct influenza strains isolated over the last century, researchers announced Monday.
Their results also suggest that world health experts might need to re-evaluate standard tests used for surveillance of novel influenza strains. Their findings are published in the Journal of Experimental Medicine.
