MADISON, N. J., (WLTN) -- The Food and Drug Administration and the Department of Health and Human Services are warning the public not to purchase or use the medication Viagra after a woman found using it to treat erectile dysfunction was prescribed it.
The FDA said it will consider a voluntary recall and will update the agency on what the drug could do for the public.
The FDA said Viagra is currently only available by prescription in 50 mg, 30 mg, and 20 mg tablets. The drug has been available in tablet form since it was introduced in 1998.
Viagra has been available for more than three decades, and the FDA has approved it for sale under the brand name Revatio.
The FDA said the drug could also be sold under the generic name of Revatio in generic form.
"Generic drug products are often packaged in plastic bottles that are then filled with a generic prescription medication for the same condition," said Dr. Robert B. Fossell, director of the FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research. "This could potentially increase the risk of serious adverse events."
The FDA said Viagra is still under investigation by the U. S. Food and Drug Administration, which has not yet issued any new warning.

Food and Drug Administration has approved the first generic version of the popular erectile dysfunction medication Viagra to be produced by Pfizer. Pfizer’s patent for the drug expires this month.
“Patients should be able to receive and keep their Viagra and sildenafil citrate tablets conveniently and conveniently packaged,” the FDA said.
A generic version of the popular erectile dysfunction medication could be available in the U. in late 2018. That’s because the drug has the same active ingredient as the brand-name drug Viagra, Cialis.
Cialis and Viagra were first approved for use in the United States in 2003, but the two drugs sparked controversy as they both caused impotence in men in their mid-30s.
In December 2006, the FDA approved the first generic version of the drug, which contains the same active ingredient as the brand-name drug. It was the first generic version to be approved for sale, the FDA said in a news release.

The first-time use of Viagra
Patients taking Viagra should use it only as directed, the FDA said.
The drug was designed to address men with erectile dysfunction by increasing blood flow to the penis, which is essential for achieving and maintaining an erection. It was specifically designed to be sold under the brand name Cialis, but the drugmaker voluntarily changed its mind about its use in the future.

Viagra is only available with a prescription

Lamson Institute researchers led by David Broussard and Stephen D. Hochberg
The U. S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) are warning that more than 40 sexual dysfunction drugs, including Viagra and Cialis, pose serious health risks for both men and women. They also warned that they could cause serious adverse reactions.
The drugs could cause side effects including an erection that lasts for more than 4 hours, a painful erection lasting longer than 4 hours, and a decrease in the amount of urine produced. The drugs also raise blood pressure and heart rate, according to a recent study.
The FDA’s warning comes after years of research into the dangers of the drugs, and the findings from that work were published this month in theJournal of the American Medical Association. The drug’s risks have yet to be adequately studied and the agency added that the drug should be used only under close medical supervision.
“The warning is in response to an increasing number of reports of serious adverse reactions to Viagra and Cialis, which is the only FDA-approved prescription drug for erectile dysfunction,” the researchers wrote in the March issue of the
Their report was published Friday inin response to a public health advisory by the U. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The FDA advisory recommends that men taking these drugs be evaluated by a urologist for safety and efficacy, and that the drug be prescribed in the same dosage strength as Viagra.
“The safety and efficacy of these medications should be evaluated to make sure they are safe and effective,” the study authors wrote.
They added that their research showed that the drug was safe when taken by men with diabetes and had no side effects. “The fact that men taking these drugs had a lower risk than the placebo group and that the drug was not associated with adverse reactions indicates that they are likely to be a safe and effective treatment,” the study authors wrote.
The study was conducted in more than 120 countries across the globe. The research team looked at the health benefits of using the drugs and found that they were safe when taken in combination with lifestyle changes.
“The combination of these medications is not intended to harm the developing fetus,” the study authors wrote. “It is not recommended for pregnant women. It should not be used by women who are breastfeeding or who have recently had a stroke or heart attack.”
The study was led by the U. The FDA advisory committee that recommended the use of the drugs warned that these drugs could cause serious adverse reactions, including an erection lasting longer than 4 hours, an painful erection lasting longer than 4 hours, and a decrease in the amount of urine produced. The agency also warned that the drugs increased blood pressure and heart rate.
The researchers added that the drugs could cause serious adverse reactions in women who have not yet had a baby.
“This study has implications for women who are experiencing sexual dysfunction,” the researchers wrote. “The FDA advisory advises that these drugs should not be used to treat sexual dysfunction in women who are not pregnant, are breastfeeding, have not had a stroke or heart attack, or have a history of breast cancer.”
The agency said that the FDA advisory committee recommended the use of the drugs in women who are not pregnant, breastfeeding, or have had a stroke or heart attack. The agency added that there was no evidence that the drugs were associated with serious adverse reactions.
The drug’s risks were taken into consideration when the study was conducted. The researchers concluded that the risk of adverse reactions was minimal and the drugs were safe when taken in the same dose as Viagra, which is the recommended strength.

There's a drug that can boost the sexual prowess of men. Viagra and Cialis, the two newest drugs in the world of sexual enhancement, have been developed to help men with erectile dysfunction, but their popularity has made them unsuitable for most men. This is because the drug, Viagra, is made for the treatment of the disease. It's a drug that's already available as a pill. The main drug on the market is Cialis. Cialis is a generic version of Viagra. It's not the most effective drug for treating ED. But there are other options besides Viagra. Erectile dysfunction affects a man's ability to get and keep an erection. It affects a man's ability to sustain a hard erection. A man will usually need to have a firm erection for 30 minutes, which is called an hour of sexual activity. When a man has an erection for less than 30 minutes, he will not be able to get or maintain an erection for that long. That's because Cialis works by blocking the action of a chemical in the brain called phosphodiesterase. It turns out that Cialis can be effective for about four hours. It can be taken as needed, about an hour before sexual activity. This drug is also effective for two days. If Cialis is used for more than one day, it can take longer to start working. So, the time to start working is the first day, and the effect of the drug is the same. It's important to note that Cialis and Viagra will not be effective for up to 36 hours. So, it is not recommended that men take Cialis for more than 36 hours.
VIDEOWhen you think about this, you think about how the body responds to a drug. You might think about a drug called Cialis. It works in a very similar way.
