5 Things You Might Not Know About Viagra
US News ^ | 03/27/2008 | Lindsay Lyon

Ten years ago today, Viagra got the Food and Drug Administration's stamp of approval. Here are some facts about the little blue pill:

• Roughly 1 billion Viagra tablets have been doled out since the drug debuted.

• An average of about three Viagra tablets were dispensed each second between its launch and the end of last year.

• Thirty-five million men worldwide have used Viagra, which remains the most commonly prescribed drug for erectile dysfunction.

• The drug has been evaluated in more than 120 clinical trials involving more than 16,000 men.

• Viagra was also tested in about 3,000 women as a potential treatment for sexual arousal disorders. But the trials were "inconclusive," and Pfizer announced in 2004 that it had stopped them.

Many men have hearing loss with Viagra.

I'm sure many men have hearing loss with carrots as well. But has a definitive causal link has been established?

“Those 4-hour long erections keep the ER nurses laughing!”

That actually happened to my brothers’ friend and his girlfriend. About 1 hr in, he was saying that he ought to go to the hospital. She said, “in a minute.” At two hrs, he was ready to drive himself, she wouldn't “let him up.” At three hours satiated, she finally consented and took him to the ER.

man finally gets his prescription for Viagra. Anxious to try it out, he takes one as soon as he gets home, and waits for his wife to come home from work, but, in his excitement he forgets and leaves the package open on the table and his cockatiel eats all of them.

Seeing the results and panicking the man grabs the bird and stuffs him into the freezer to cool off.

Just as his wife comes home, the Viagra kicks in and it’s hours later before he remembers the cockatiel. He runs and looks in the freezer expecting the worst, only to find the bird breathing heavily, drained with sweat and totally exhausted.

“What happened?” the man asks, “You were in there for hours and yet you’re not only alive but you’re sweating like crazy?”

The cockatiel pants: “Man, have you ever tried to pry apart the legs of a frozen chicken?”

If our product works in a BIG way for more than four hours, consult your physician.

Watching TV with Mrs. WBill and this commercial came on....they read that particular quote.

I didn't even say a word and the wife said "Don't even think it!".

Norris takes flaccidity pills.

I work for a venture capitalist that invests in biotech, pharma, etc.

We invested in a startup that made an 'anti-viagra'.

Sales? Not so good.
