What's The Latest news on Viagra?

Viagra is being dispensed by about three pills every second and has done so since it was introduced. However the very latest news on Viagra that was released June 7, 2008 indicated that hands down millions of men and their partners will testify that Viagra has seriously helped them in the bedroom. But scientists in Miami are trying to determine if Sildenafil citrate can improve the speed of cyclists riding at altitude. Joint ventures are funding a two year project so that they can correctly make the conclusion. If it turns out that it can improve the performance of cyclists as well then further efforts will attempt to ban Viagra by putting it in a group with other banned drugs used in sports. In other words it would be in the same classification as steroids and human growth hormones.

Viagra causes dilation of the blood vessels, working on receptors in the lungs and genitalia. But it won't cause an erection without stimulation. This is just a study but one of significant importance because some athletes are not always ethical and has been known to take some things such as the substances that are used to make cattle fat, drugs used to relieve anemia, and drugs that reverse sleeping disorders. There are plenty of rumors about how Viagra is being used by some cyclists and this rumor was given some validity when at the Giro d'Italia, the Gerolsteiner team suspended Andrea Moletta after Italian police searched the car of Moletta's father and found 82 Viagra pills as well as syringes hidden inside tubes of toothpaste (cyclingnews.com).

There has also been evidence that some cyclists have been taking Viagra in the United States already. The theory behind this is that Viagra improves blood flow and blood vessels get constricted in high altitudes. In theory, Viagra could help cyclists, runners or cross-country skiers at high altitudes. It will likely always be the case that if there is a way to find another purpose for a medication, whether it is for good or evil, it will be done. There are other studies being conducted across the world to find other ways to use certain drugs, many for what could be miraculous medical breakthroughs.

Viagra is been tested to see if it can be of benefit to muscular dystrophy patients. Many patients that suffer from muscular dystrophy suffer from heart failure and studies are being conducted to determine if Viagra can delay the onset of this particular condition.
