Belated Happy Birthday Viagra

Published by rational at 1:34 pm under Uncategorized Edit This

This last quarter Pfizer’s wonder drug Viagra turned 10 years old. Although much has been written about the little blue pill, it’s not caused much rise in Pfizers price which remains lower than it was ten years ago.

Conditions being assessed for treatment with Viagra include jet lag, heart failure, premature ejaculation, diabetes symptoms, multiple sclerosis, pain, premature birth, chronic pelvic pain, memory loss, Reynaud’s phenomenon, and strokes.

In Egypt, Viagra has been used to save unconsummated marriages; in Argentina, it has been investigated as a new therapy for jet lag; in Israel, researchers have found that it can help cut flowers survive for longer.

I think Oil’s been on a bit of a Viagra run!
