Viagra Could Be High Altitude Drug Of The Future

26 June 2006 (Monday)

Everyone has heard of the erectile dysfunction drug Viagra and its amazing effects on impotence and those of you who are up to date in the wold of drugs will lnow that it has been shown to be good for reducing the effects of pulmonary arterial hypertension as well for helping the heart after a heart attack. However in a new developement scientists have shown that the the impotence drug Viagra could even be used as a performance boosting drug that atheletes and people who need to exert themselves at high altitudes could really benefit from.

The research examined by Ukmedix clearly shows the benefits of Viagra with poor oxygen levels. The reserach was conducted using special masks to reduce the levels of oxygen taken in by the participants and to imitate a high altitude. The groups of participants were made to ride exercise bikes while wearing the masks and it was noted that those who took the Viagra drug were able to complete a 6 km cycle by an average of nearly 40% faster than those who didn't.

The research was conducted at Stanford University over a number of weeks and the participating cyclists were monitored 3 times at for the distance of 6km at the simulated altitude of 12,700 ft while being timed. The cyclists were given either a placebo pill, a 50 mg dose of Viagra or a 100mg dose of Viagra.

Not all the cyclists respnded well to the Viagra but 4 of them had real improvements in their cycling times over the 6km when given the 50mg dose and in fact the average cycling time was 10mins 48 sec as compared to 15mins with the placebo pill. Using the 100mg of Viagra did not chance the cyling times over the 50mg dose.

At normal altitudes the Viagra did not show any benefits and the scientists are also baffled by the fact that only 4 of the cyclist responded to the Viagra. To the relief of the researchers and the cyclist there were no reports of an erection during the cycling.

The active ingredient of Viagra is sildenafil citrate. The Viagra drug doesn't actually increase sexual desire but just enables the physical mechanism of the blood vessels in the penis to function better. Viagra has been on sale since 1998 and was a real relief for men suffering from erectile dysfunction and it made millions for the drug firm Pfizer who made it. Viagra is still the best selling impotence medication in the world despite the arrival of Cialis and Levitra as rivals.
