questions according to it.
Viagra abuse in teens
There are several reasons why teenagers may
experiment with erectile dysfunction medication. Of
course, a common reason why teens may be tempted to
take an erectile dysfunction (ED) medication is out of sexual
curiosity. Teens may mistakenly think that these
medications will increase sexual potency, make them
somehow “better” sexually, or make them last longer.
Premature ejaculation is common in this age group, and
they may be hoping to find a pill to help. However, they do
not realize that Viagra will not help them last longer.
Beyond sexual curiosity, another major reason why some
teenagers may think they want Viagra or other erectile
dysfunction drugs is that they may have heard a rumor that
it can improve their athletic performance. Research has
been discussed in The NY Times and NY Daily News about
the use of Viagra to relieve constriction of blood vessels in
the lungs, improving blood flow, breathing, and athletic
endurance.
Another reason why teens may try Viagra or another erectile
medication is to attempt to increase the effect of other drugs
or alcohol; despite the fact that this is a very dangerous
use of these medications. Sometimes this is also related to
sports performance, as someone on steroids may think it
will enhance the effect of the steroids, or resolve steroidrelated erectile dysfunction. There have also been reports of
teenagers and twentysomethings taking Viagra with
alcohol or with Ecstasy (the combination called “Sextasy”),
since Ecstasy or alcohol may heighten desire while
lessening erectile ability. This dangerous combination
could be deadly, and at the very least contributes to a
reduction of safer sex practices.
Teenagers, (or anyone of any age who does not have
clinically diagnosed erectile dysfunction and a prescription
from a doctor), must stay away from Viagra, Cialis,
Levitra, or any other erectile dysfunction medication. They
can certainly cause physical side effects like dizziness,
headache, chest tightness, vision problems including loss of
vision, irregular heartbeat, and more severe
issues. Teachers and parents must teach teenagers about
drugs — and sex.
