No, it was definitely high blood pressure. My understanding is that opening up blood vessels allows blood to flow more easily, which reduces blood pressure (since the pipe is bigger) and reduces the damage and potential complications from high pressure. It didn’t actually work for that purpose, so they may have been going for another effect. Take a look at the wiki page or just search for ‘viagra originally used for’, they all say hypertension (high blood pressure): Sildenafil - Wikipedia
Hey, way to make ED sufferers feel good about themselves, dude.
viagra is a vasodilator, just like nitroglycerin, that’s why it’s dangerous to combine them, the same volume flows through a larger space, therefore at a reduced pressure. Except for the penis which is more of a cul-de-sac, I suspect pressure goes up there.
High blood pressure is an occupational hazard.
Not to mention erectile dysfunction.
Nah, a diet of spammers and trolls prevents that.
It’s amazing how many people don’t understand that. You can achieve perfectly satisfying orgasms without an erection. All you need is the right kind of stimulus. And if you’re masturbating, it’s easy to find it.
This makes me wonder how many people pop a viagra and sit around waiting for an erection to occur before proceeding to the next activity. Or if this is something the pharmacist has to explain “Look, this is not a magic boner pill, stimulus is still required to achieve the desired effect”
