I wish they would cut that out.
Mother nature has a way of weeding out the undesireables.
And I don't mean the ones who genuinely need it for medical purposes.

Let's see, roughly 1.5 in a million odds, and it isn't clear if the drug had anything to do with it.....
.....and so the FDA is going to open the floodgates of ambulance-chasing lawyers on to Pfizer, making the drug more expensive, if not unavailable.
This after what - 4.5 years of complete Republican control? It's enough to make a grown man cry!

I assume the warning will be not to use it solo.

I thought it was "Natural stimulation" that was supposed to make you go blind...

Exactly what my mother warned me about. The warning on the bottle should state that before before taking, one should ask his wife or girlfriend, "Is you is or is you ain't."

Actually I suspect adding that to the warning label reduces their liability not increase it.

When you are young it will make you go blind.
When you are old it will make you go blind.
What next ? The AMA will say when you are middle aged it will make you go blind.

Well, There's this doctor see, that attends the same church as I do, and about 2 years ago the ads offered free Viagra, just ask your doctor ... sooooo I leans offer during the offertory and ... pssst! ... yo, doc?
Ya?
Can y' get me some of that Viagra?
Sure
And sure enough, the next week, in a plain brown paper bag ... I kid you not ... a plain brown paper wrapper was three free samples of Viagra.
Well .... that night ..... heh, heh, heh ... me n' the kids' mother ... um ... fooled around.
Pretty good stuff.
Uneccesary (for me, at 57 (^8/ ... ) but ... um ... fun!
Now, I'm not the brightest bulb on the tree, but I figured if one dose was so good ... what would two do?
Not much more in the 'fun' department, but I had BLUE vision. It was like weaqring those different colored sunglasses.
I asked my doc the next week about that and all he said was, "That sometimes happens".
Never took the stuff again.

I would think that many more than 38 would go blind out of any group of 21 million old men, for any reason.
