CLEARING THE RECORD ABOUT VIAGRA Ann Landers. 12/10/98 Dear Ann Landers: I am the manager of a urology group in the Northwest that treats males with erectile dysfunction. I continue to be frustrated by letters you print that suggest Viagra has turned docile men into sex-crazed animals. Viagra does not affect a male's libido. A male with no interest in sexual activity will not develop an interest if he takes this drug. What some wives and partners are experiencing is the difference in a man who had a strong libido all along but was unable to act on it. Viagra helps him function sexually. Please correct the misconception that this is a miracle drug. No male can get an erection by simply swallowing a pill. There must be some activity that helps him get in the mood. That is the key. A loving partner who is willing to "help him along" can make a world of difference. If a male pops a pill but has not been properly stimulated, he will not be able to function. To suggest that an "old geezer" took Viagra and then abused a woman for ignoring his advances is ridiculous. The man was a lunatic before he took the pill. Don't blame it on Viagra . This medication has helped thousands of couples restore a satisfying part of their relationship. Viagra is not the enemy. The enemy is a lack of information and poor communication. I hope this letter will put to rest some of the bizarre claims people are making regarding this drug. S.C.S. in the Northwest Dear S.C.S.: You have set the record straight, and I thank you.
