How does Viagra work?

http://viagrafans.com/how_does_viagra_work.php

Viagra gets the blood flowing, but your brain has to be in the mood as well. "The biggest misperception is that it changes your psychology and makes you want sex," says the editor of MagicBluePill.com, which claims to document the experiences of real people who take Viagra. "But if you're sitting talking to Grandma and you pop a Viagra, unless you have issues, nothing's going to happen."

Viagra takes about 30 minutes to kick in. Men who don't normally have problems, or who have only mild dysfunction, say it takes only a minor stimulus -- such as the brush of a hand that wouldn't cause arousal under normal circumstances -- to trigger an erection.

For men who have serious erectile dysfunction, getting things going may still require extra effort, partly because of nervousness or embarrassment about unsuccessful past attempts at intercourse.

Because Viagra doesn't increase desire, it's not prescribed for men with desire disorders, such as a low sex drive. However, if the man has lost interest in sex because he has had problems with erections in the past, Viagra may help.

Viagra (Sildenafil) is used to treat male sexual function problems (impotence or erectile dysfunction) by blocking a certain enzyme (phosphodiesterase-PDE5) in the body. In combination with sexual stimulation, sildenafil works by helping the blood flow into the penis to achieve and maintain an erection.

This drug is taken by mouth as needed, at least 30 minutes, but no more than 4 hours, before sexual activity (1 hour before is the most effective). Do not take more often than once daily, and take as directed.

Mmmmm My basic thought would be that Viagra is fixing something that has gone wrong/doesn't work Birth control is trying to STOP something from working. That's the basic reasons, I'd think. Although I don't know if my (Catholic) Church actually has some sort of 'offical' stance on viagra. Terry - Smoking is usually viewed as bad - it is damaging / not taking care of the body God gave you. Plastic surgery (for purly cosmetic reasons) is usually viewed as bad due to vanity and seeking things that aren't important. And the Catholic church doesn't remarry divorced people.

Sildenafil is the base drug for VIAGRA. Viagra is a brand name. Sildenafil relaxes muscles and increases blood flow to particular areas of the body.Sildenafil is used to treat erectile dysfunction (impotence) and for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension.

Take sildenafil exactly as directed by your doctor. If you do not understand these directions, ask your pharmacist, nurse, or doctor to explain them to you. Take each dose with a full glass of water. Sildenafil is usually taken when needed. It can be taken anywhere from 4 hours to one-half hour before sexual activity. Generally, it is taken 1 hour before sexual activity. The medication can help achieve an erection when sexual stimulation occurs. An erection will not occur just by taking a pill. Do not take any other drug used to treat impotence, such as alprostadil (Caverject, Muse, Edex) or yohimbine (Yocon, Yodoxin, others), without first talking to your doctor.

If you experience any of the following serious side effects, stop taking sildenafil and seek emergency medical attention or notify your doctor immediately:

* an allergic reaction (difficulty breathing; closing of the throat; swelling of the lips, tongue, or face; or hives);
* chest pain or an irregular heartbeat;
* swelling of the ankles or legs;
* shortness of breath;
* prolonged or severe dizziness;
* a prolonged (lasting longer than 4 hours) or painful erection; or
* dizziness, nausea, or angina (pain, tightness, discomfort, numbness, or tingling in the chest, arms, neck, or jaw).

Other, less serious side effects may be more likely to occur. Continue to take sildenafil and talk to your doctor if you experience

* flushing;
* mild dizziness;
* headache;
* nasal congestion;
* diarrhea;
* temporary blue tint in vision or other vision abnormalities; or
* itching or a rash. -

Remember, keep this and all other medicines out of the reach of children, never share your medicines with others, and use this medication only for the indication prescribed.-

No it doesn't raise your blood pressure systemically.

It is a PDE5 inhibitor, which is very specific to penile tissues. What it does is relax the smooth muscles in the arteries going to the penile erectile bodies. This allows blood to flow in and create an erection.
