I like movies a lot. Recently, I watched the Hollywood movie known as The Last Vegas. It is such a very nice movie that I watched it twice. But it is not the film that I actually wanted to talk about. My topic today is a very special drug that I happened to learn about from that movie. It is called Viagra.
One of the actors in the movie, Keven Kline, acts as an old man married for forty years. When his loving wife sees him off for a Las Vegas flight, She hands him a condom and Viagra pills. She gives her genuine consent to his having sex with another woman, and she actually tells him to use the drug. What struck my mind was her remark that he, her forty year husband, had not been happy! What followed was my little research about the drug.
Viagra is a prescription drug for men like Sam, the old guy in The Last Vegas movie. Actually there are many, many men in real life, who really need to use Viagra. This drug a proven effect of changing the unhappy situations of these men, single or married, into a healthy sex life they probably had prayed for. If you find out how this prescription drug functions, then you would easily figure it out yourselves that it is just safe and sound.
The chemical that is found in Viagra pills is just an enzyme inhibitor which helps to regulate blood flow to and from the penis. It works much like the hormone like substances naturally involved in the process of erection. This is very important because it comes right to the point of why some men are devoid of enjoying sex for one reason or another – they can’t have erections! Such men are said to have erectile dysfunction. Viagra is a medical solution for all those men. The widely known blue pills induce rich blood flow to the male reproductive organ and consequently a reliable erection. That is why the drug is popular than any other medicine today. Reports have shown that almost every American knows all what is to know about Viagra. The dosage is very simple. A man can take Viagra pills, which come in 25, 50 and 100 milligrams, starting from an hour before having sex. The resulting erection is known to last up to four hours! But there are precautions to be taken when using the drug like any other medicine.
Side effects
First of all, is should be known that Viagra has got known side effects. Most of these effects of the drug are just like that of any common drug and shouldn’t cause big concerns. These include headaches, flushing, diarrhea, and muscle pains. Viagra may also cause vision problems sometimes.
