Female Libido Booster Gets Federal Approval
Daily Caller ^ | 6-5-15 | Casey Harper

America will never be the same.

The Food and Drug Administration voted Thursday to recommend approval for a drug that would increase a woman’s sex drive, The New York Times reports.

The drug, Flibanserin, is a pink pill meant to be taken daily. It had been denied two times by the FDA, but the third time was the charm. The drug makers have been directed to work to lower the drug’s side effects, which can include sleepiness, low blood pressure, nausea, fainting and dizziness.

After the second refusal from the FDA, a group of advocates rallied around the little pink pill. They founded a group called “Even The Score” and began gathering signatures on a petition.

The pill had been rejected in 2010 and 2013. The women who participated in the trial found they had only one more “sexually satisfying event” per month as women on the placebo.

What a heckuva a night out ...

Isn’t that the same as a date rape drug ?

And there you have it. The FDA rejected this drug on two separate occasions, but the manufacturer isn't dumb. What did this drug manufacturer do?

They went out and created a PC campaign called "even the Score". What "score" is being evened? Ah yes, those evil White drug manufacturers created Viagra and intentionally left wymen out! Now the "score" needs to been even! We need fairness! Everything equal regardless of safety.

Regardless of reality!!

This thing sound marginally effective -- at best, and has some rather unpleasant side effects.

How long until we see the ambulance chasing attorney TV ads calling all women who may have used this drug to call them to collect cash payments for this deadly drug?

One of my favorite skits of his. How does he remember all the side effects, and peal them off so fluently?

“The medication increases the number of satisfying sexual events per month by about 0.5 to 1 over placebo from a starting point of between 2 to 3.”

Great. Another drug with loads of negative side-effects that barely works, if at all.

“What a lot of guys don’t get (because women don’t tell them) is that the whole day is foreplay for the woman. Work the honey-do list, treat her with respect, help her with stuff (especially the stuff she hates) and she will be jumping all over you by the end of the day.”

Amen. I know by 10:00 how the evening will play out. Providing nothing goes awry.

Short story:

My wife’s company is releasing a new product for “brain repair” in a couple of months. They let the distributors try it. They claim it takes 60-90 days to see (feel) the results. Since we’ve only been taking it about two weeks, we’re not really noticing anything really.

However, there are multiple couples taking the stuff that have remarked on changes in their sex life. In every case it has to do with the wife’s libido changing for the better. Guys saying things like “What the heck was last night all about?!”

It is not a claim the product makes, but they are very conservative (partly for legal reasons) regarding the claims they make for their product.

But still...
