Shoot, after listening to (watching) some of the side effects of these products (depression? suicidal thoughts?, bleeding?, ulcers?, potential heart attack?, etc.?, etc.?), who'd want to take the risk? :lol:
 
On the other hand, I could have a boner that lasts 12 hours.... worth it!

I've wondered a lot about that myself. It seems to me a lot of the meds these days are as potentially harmful than able to heal. I also think such meds are being dispensed like candy. And a lot of it to kids (Riddlin...).

You are just raising the bar, so to speak, for the rest of us. Pretty soon women will expect us all to have 12 hour erections, and then we'll have to get 18 hour erections to stand out, and then 36 hour erections, and pretty soon we'll have to be erect 100% of the time. And what kind of life would that be, I ask you? It would be a hard, hard life, that's the answer.

Well, it's not exactly the choice of those companies to list all the side effects -- obviously, they're required to by law. Depending on what the disease is, you might be willing to put up with a whole lot of side effects (cancer is a good example of that.) The other thing is that the probability of the different side effects and the degree of the side effects might make you see things differently.

Here's an MSDS that looks pretty unpleasant...

...sounds like nasty stuff, but it's for alcohol.
 
I wish they had these commercials for Accutane when I was a teenager. I would of went another route, without a doubt.
 
My favorite drug commericals are the ones for Enzyte with "Smilin' Bob".
