Impact of Viagra in American Society
The spreading of
the Viagra craze in the USA was somewhat predictable.
For a nation that consumes substantial amounts of drugs
such as Prozac as an excuse for almost everything (even
a bad hair day would be a good reason for some to pop
a pill). It seems pretty obvious that a little blue,
diamond- like shaped pill that delivers sexuality at full capacity for being enjoyed again for only $7
roughly and no questions asked. It will likely to cause
massive run to urologists offices and drugstores the
world over.
According to recent
drug researches, the sales of Viagra by Pfizer
Pharmaceuticals today comprehend 79% of the impotence
drug market, with estimated 40.000 Viagra prescriptions
each day (Prozac for instance, sells 70.000 each day).
In addition, we need to remember that Pfizer didn't
make any massive advertising campaign and yet there's
no other scientifically proved medicament deemed as
strong to be Viagra alternative.
As a consequence
right after the Viagra was such a hunt unleashed
in the market. People started to look for alternatives
in order to arrange lower prices or to gain easier and
no-prescription access. Consequences such as contraband,
manufacturing of generic Viagra, natural Viagra,
and online Viagra orders became common ground,
raising several legal, ethical and social issues.
Some researches
also point that the Viagra effects may be working
in a very unexpected way. A product that was formerly
produced to save marriages would be actually destroying
relationships instead. Men who are using Viagra to reanimate
their sexual lives are finding themselves in
bland, rut relationships. So, they start to seek out
fence-jumping adventures outside marriage. In addition,
there've been cases of ex-wives trying in court to hold
Viagra responsible for marriage break-ups.
So far, comparisons
between Viagra and Prozac are not only because
of high sales. Both medicaments have been employed as
a sort of happiness tamper by many. Despite the actual
patients who really need medication due to obvious complications
regarding sexuality. There are men from all walks
of life pumping Viagra regularly to excuse single
failure in bed. The use of Viagra for women also
expresses the sexual panacea Viagra latches on. Apparently,
it's not only in the sexuality of thousands of
American couples that the Viagra is causing a rise.
Pfizer Pharmaceuticals stock has nearly tripled thanks
to the sales of Viagra, jacking up the company
suddenly in the position of number 2 pharmaceutical
company in the US.
