What's Up with Over-the Counter News

Pfizer is considering an over-the-counter version of Viagra. Reports indicate it may be sold as a mouth spray. GlaxoSmithKline is developing an over-the-counter impotence gel, and a generic knockoff of Viagra is already sold over the counter in China. Viagra is under pressure from Cialis, which lasts up to 36 hours, compared to Viagra's four.Principled reaction: Let's think carefully before letting people buy Viagra without a doctor's supervision. Practical reaction: Dude, have you glanced at your spam lately?

I don't see what the problem is. Obviously, these will be checked out by the FDA. I see no reason for the pharmaceutical companies to be making a bazillion dollars a year so that old men (or whoever needs it) can have sex with their wives.

There is no problem with the medication at all as far as I've read about it - the only thing they say is that you must be sure you're healthy enough to have sex. And if you have some serious problem, the medication won't work anyway...which would be a good clue to see a doctor.

For the most part, I don't agree with self-medication - but in t his instance, most men would be perfectly aware if they needed it without a diagnosis.
