>>> Did you hear the news story about all the old farts buying viagra through medicare and state programs @ 5.00 per order? <<<

I've been hearing prices from $7 - $20 per pill.
It's not just the old farts either. I know a young guy who got it prescribed on Monday. He's been having a blast with it (literally) since he doesn't have a problem in the first place.

I think you'll continue to see such 'abuse' of this prescription.
People with insurance can get it for free, then sell it to others at $15 a pill. There's such a high demand that people will actually buy it per pill 'on the street' especially if they don't have health insurance and can't afford to fill the prescription.

Never seen anything like it.
