Viagra, which is also known as “Sildenafil”, is a medication commonly used by males to enhance or sustain their erection. This drug is also used to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension because it is a vasodilator, which means that it opens or expands the blood vessels in the body.
Side effects
There are a few side effects to the medication, which include; headaches, heartburn, and flushed/redden skin. You should not take this medication if you have any heart disease or if you take nitrates. Another side effect can be prolong erections and can cause penile damage. One interesting thing that the researchers discovered was that it could cause the patient to see a blue tint. In a more serious side effect is that it can cause hearing loss, which is one of the rarest side effects out there. According to some news outlets, woman have also been taking Viagra but it is not currently prescribe for females. Viagra was originally discovered by Pfizer scientists; Andrew Bell, David Brown, and Nicholas Terrett. They originally found that it was a treatment for cardiovascular diseases and erections were a side effect. It’s been on the market since 1998 and has been prescribed to millions of men. Abuse of the drug has also been on the rise through black market drug dealers. People, especially younger people, are buying the pills illegally and taking them while not prescribed to them. In a recent study, it was found that many of the illegal users are also using Viagra in combination with other illegal drugs, mainly other stimulants. A combination of the drugs and taking Viagra can create an extreme heightened sexual response, which can also prove fatal if mixed in the incorrect dosages. You should always have a doctors prescription so that your doctor can make the best informed decision to prevent any harmful drug interactions.
How to buy Viagra in South Africa?
You can buy the medication in South Africa off of a website www.viagrastoresa.com, but there are other websites that offer it as well. The currency that they use in South Africa is called the “Rand”, and you can buy it online from about 208 Rand or $16 American dollars. This should get you around a 30 day supply depending on what the website offers but most doctors write a prescription for a month at a time. Also, if you are buying your prescriptions, it is very important to make sure that you are safe.
There is also another online drug store called Pharmacy Online that sells the Viagra pills at 10 for $59.99.
I’ve tried looking into South African pharmacies but it looks like the ones I found do not sell Viagra in the Pharmacy itself, they sell the alternative herbal supplements of Viagra, like the Macca root. If you buy it online, it should be shipped to you in a discreet package. Regardless, always talk to your doctor before buying Viagra.
