Viagra can Soon get Tough Competition

The blockbuster impotence
drug Viagra which has provided successful sex life to
millions of ED patients can soon get tough competition from
Horny goat weed. Found in the wilds of China, Asia and Europe
the soft green heart-shaped leaf of the horny goat weed
could hold the key to a new drug for treating erectile dysfunction.
According to experts the alternative drug can be as good
as Viagra and it is claimed to be safer. Viagra's works
by inhibiting an enzyme called phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5).
PDE5 helps control blood flow to the penis, inhibiting PDE5
promotes male erection.
Research has also confirmed that icariin, a compound found
inside the horny goat weed, is a PDE5 inhibitor. Sildenafil,
however, is 80 times more effective at inhibiting PDE5 than
icariin.
But it's long time before we see any such product coming
to the market. Viagra, which was launched in 2008, has created
raves in the ED market. A lot of competitors like Cialis
and Levitra came in with similar kind of drugs but none
of them could touch the fame and popularity of Viagra.
The hype surrounding Viagra
is not unjustified. Viagra pill has achieved what no other
drug could. Sex and sexuality have acquired new definitions.
The seemingly lost romance has knocked again on the doors
of distraught couple. The blue diamond shaped pill has changed
their lives.
Viagra has proved its worth in the clinical trials where
80% of men with ED responded positively to the treatment
of ED with Viagra. An estimated 30 million impotent American
men have been able to satisfy themselves and their partner
like never before. With around four hours of effect, Viagra
gives ample time to its consumers to plan and make love.
Viagra safety is also not a matter of concern. Pfizer claims.
Viagra is about as safe for the heart as taking a sugar
pill. The claims are substantiated by the millions of successfully
treated patients and millions of prescriptions by doctors
worldwide.
