A Piller of the Community..talks about Viagra


Whats the difference between Niagara and Viagra? Niagara Falls. 


All joking aside Viagra is big business. 
The little blue pill...Viagra.  The cost of this medication has skyrockted to around $40-$50 each making it unaffordable to many. This fact has many men buying from online sites outside of the US. In a recent article from Forbes.com:

Up To 77 Percent Of Viagra Bought From Outside Of The USA May Be Fake, And Possibly Dangerous Research Shows.

In January, 2013 customs officials intercepted 180,000 counterfeit Viagra pills at Miami International Airport. And these are just a handful of the cases currently in courts. The most recent Federal data show that seizures of counterfeit drugs are up by 200 percent and fake medications are now number six on the list of most-seized items. 

Because Revatio - Sildenafil Citrate (used to treat pulomonary hypertension) just became generic many physicians are prescribing this instead 
of Viagra with the instruction to take 2-5 tablets per dose. Many insurance companies will now start requiring a prior authorization for this medication.
