“side effects are too strong”
That has been my observation with so many modern drugs. Unless the med is supposed to cure a critical medical condition or save a life, the problems caused by side effects can outweigh it’s benefits.

That's always been the challenge of pharmaceutical science and the practice of medicine--weighing the risk/benefits for each disease state. Risking death for a drug that helps patients with ED may be considered extreme; risking death for a patient with pancreatic cancer? That's an entirely different risk calculus.
