What do emergency room personnel do when a cardiac distressed patient arrives who can not communicate (such as unconcious) and no one knows whether he has taken Viagra or not? Does one administer nitro and hope or withhold it on the chance? It seems unethical for Pfizer and the FDA to continue to allow a product on the market with such negative health implications for so many. Sex is a desire not a requirement. Such as breathing, heart beating... AND there are safe alternatives for those who really want sexual activity that they currently do not have. Viagra just seems like a party drug.
