Off label uses of Viagra (was Re: Is it Safe to Order Cheap Viagra Online)

[Guest guest]

Steve, those off-label uses of viagra aren't surprising to me. The

drug is a nitric oxide releaser, and it's original use it was designed

fro was as a blood pressure medicine.

Anything that increases NO causes blood vessels to dilate, allowing

more oxygen (and nutrients, etc) to flow. Some doctors currently

prescribe viagra off-label for pulmonary hypertension and high

altitude pulmonary edema.
