Since you said I can post an answer, here again is the information I
posted on the last question.

First, Lilly has statistics about its Cialis product:

Lilly Posts Q4, 2005 Profit - Newsroom - Inside INdiana Business with Gerry Dick
http://www.insideindianabusiness.com/newsitem.asp?id=16591  

"Worldwide Cialis sales are composed of $45.0 million of sales in
Lilly territories and $165.5 million of sales in the joint-venture
territories. Within the joint-venture territories, the U.S. sales of
Cialis were $81.6 million in the fourth quarter, a 55 percent increase
compared with fourth-quarter 2004 U.S. sales.

For the full year of 2005, Cialis worldwide sales increased 35
percent, to $746.6 million, of which $169.9 million represents sales
in Lilly territories and $576.7 million relates to sales in the
joint-venture territories. Within the joint-venture territories, the
U.S. sales of Cialis increased 32 percent, to $272.9 million, in
2005."

- Gives easy to read figures, though only for US territory

Still couldn't say the same for Levitra and Viagra. The statistics I
could find really focus on the company's financial status only, while
no drug statistics are given. I don't know if the controversy over the
products has affected these companies' desire to show figures.
Meanwhile, this comparative set of statistics from a news article
about 2004 sales might help.

"Levitra, which Glaxo launched in partnership with Bayer in the United
States in summer 2003 and Europe a few months later, generated sales
of just $60 million in the third quarter of last year. Pfizer Inc.'s
(NYSE:PFE) Viagra had sales of $305.3 million and Eli Lilly & Co.'s
(NYSE:LLY) Cialis had sales of $154 million."
