  We address the problem of including Coulomb distortion effects in inclusive
quasielastic (e,e') reactions using the eikonal approximation. Our results
indicate that Coulomb corrections may become large for heavy nuclei for certain
kinematical regions. The issues of our model are presented in detail and the
results are compared to calculations of the Ohio group, where Dirac wave
functions were used both for electrons and nucleons. Our results are in good
agreement with those obtained by exact calculations.
