Viagra Day is observed on March 27, the same date that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) authorised its use as an oral treatment for erectile dysfunction. (E.D.). It was the first non-invasive treatment ever devised for male impotence. Erectile dysfunction occurs when a man is unable to obtain or maintain an erection or consistently ejaculate. This problem affects an estimated 30 million men in the United States, and it can worsen with age. Certain factors, including cardiac conditions, other medications, diabetes, high blood pressure, neurological disorders, and anxiety, can contribute to it.
The background of Viagra Day
Not many medications can attribute their development to an adverse effect. Peter Dunn and Albert Wood, British scientists working for Pfizer in 1989, set out to develop a drug to treat hypertension and angina. Unfortunately, early trials of sildenafil citrate to treat heart disease in the early 1900s were ineffectual. However, the clinical trial participants shared a peculiar adverse effect. There were reports of an increase in erections within 30 to 60 minutes of consuming the medication. The decision was then made to advertise it as a treatment for impotence. In 1996, Pfizer’s patent for sildenafil was authorised. On March 27, 1998, just two years later, the U.S. F.D.A approved it for the treatment of erectile dysfunction, the new clinical term for impotence.
It would be an understatement to say that Viagra was a tremendous success. Although it was only available with a prescription, it was advertised on television to reach a wide audience. It was also available via the Internet. Customers received complimentary samples after completing an online consultation form. At the time, marketing prescription medications directly to consumers was unheard of. During the first three months of its release, the little blue capsule generated a total of $400 million in revenue. It became the quickest drug to ever surpass $1 billion in annual sales.
In recent years, as more generic E.D. medications have become available, Viagra’s market share has decreased. There is no doubt that it has improved the lives of countless men and women worldwide.

5 TIPS FOR CONTROLLING VIAGRA SIDE-EFFECTS
Before prescribing medication, a physician should conduct a physical examination and obtain a thorough medical history.
Only purchase from a licenced pharmacist, as purchasing from alternative channels such as the internet could result in the purchase of counterfeit or hazardous medications.
Take the prescribed dose at least 30 minutes prior to sexual activity, and limit daily use to one tablet.
Alcohol decreases blood pressure, which can cause vertigo and exacerbate erectile dysfunction.
Grapefruit and grapefruit juice contain substances that inhibit the decomposition of sildenafil in the body, thereby increasing the risk of adverse effects.
