Hah!, FDA has already detained two shipments of sildenafil into the U.S. due to it being an unlisted drug.

David,Re:" Viagra hype". In medicicne, as in the stock market and real life, if you hear something too good to be true, you can bet your bottom dollar that it is ( too good to be true ). What have we heard so far about Viagra? That it turns men into yelling Tarzans. That this guy had to break into the research lab to get it. That it saved that guys' marriage. There hasn't been a single " negative report " except, " just a few minor headaches or diarrhea ". Whenever I hear this line may antennae unfold to the fullest because my experience ( or that of all doctors ) with systemic drugs is different: these babies kill and maim. Maybe ... this is what Misslil meant when she said that she wouldn't prescribe it for one year to her patients, gg. TA
