Hard Truths About Viagra

November 13, 2008

Viagra hit the Indian market about a decade ago amid a lot of controversy and excitement surrounding its actual results. The hype generated by various print and TV advertisements compelled a whole generation of middle-aged men to wonder whether this little blue pill could actually get their nightlife up and going again.

To admit to certain honesty, many leading Indian doctors were also curious about the nature and scope about Viagra and consulted with their global counterparts as Viagra and similar libido enhancing drugs had already achieved FDA approval in countries like the US. What had actually started out as a solution for helping men’s health issues like stress or age related lax libido and sexual performance, with a little more furtive experimentation and easy access (with even corner chemists stocking it and palm-greasing serving to get it without a prescription) soon turned disturbing as many men started using Viagra for recreational purposes.

It was reported that many men below 35 were using Viagra ‘just for kicks’ and this was alarming since the drug is not entirely without side-effects, according to Dr. Steven Lamm, M.D. and faculty member at NY University, who has authored the book, ‘The Hardness Factor.’ Being a renowned men’s health expert, when he expressed his concern about the type of behaviour it could possible result in, even for otherwise healthy males in the prime of their youth, it was indeed a wake-up call for many who had so far used it or considered using it recreationally. Among the most serious side effects of Viagra are Priaprism (erection lasting over 4 hours, which can cause permanent erectile dysfunction) and sudden death, if taken along with other drugs that contain a nitrate derivative (e.g. Poppers).

Men suffering from hypertension and diabetes are especially warned not to use Viagra without permission from their doctors, as it can prove fatal for them besides the emotional dependency frequent use of the drug can cause in regular males.

Thus, it pays to educate yourself about the proper use of Viagra for a fulfilling sexual life instead of indiscriminate use for a few moments’ pleasure that can go terribly wrong sometimes.
