Viagra is used for treatment of erection impairment, now medically called erectile dysfunction (ED). Viagra was not the first drug treatment for erection impairment, but it was the one that captured the public’s imagination. Today, Viagra is one of the most successful drugs ever marketed. More than 10 million men have taken more than 125 million tablets. Annual sales approach $2 billion. The future of the little blue pill—and other erection medications—looks bright.
Be aware the erection medication is not the answer to every man’s erection problem, though erection medication certainly has a place in treatment of ED. Many erection difficulties are caused by sexual anxiety, and resolve when men learn more about sex, relax about it, and adopt a less ****-centered, holistic and sensual approach to lovemaking. Other erection difficulties are caused by medical problems and resolve when the illnesses are treated. Many erection problems are caused by drugs (notably alcohol and cigarettes) and drug side effects and can be helped by cutting back on alcohol, quitting smoking, or tinkering with prescriptions.
