New Viagra Study
August 03, 2006
In what many doctors are calling a landmark medical
study, there is evidence that daily use of Viagra could reverse
the problem of impotence in
many men. Drugs like Viagra have literally changed the landscape
of impotence treatment.
But now this new study provides evidence that regular
use of these types of medicines might actually cure impotence. Bob
Rozman, an impotent patient, tells us, You cant describe in words
just what that feeling is.
Bob suffers from impotence, but hes had a terrific
response to one of the new generation of medications--the phosphodiesterase
inhibitors which help treat impotence.
These drugs: Viagra,
Cialis, and also Levitra all work the same way by boosting blood
flow to the genital area, which is the key to potency. But theyre
taken on an as-needed basis.
Now new research presented at the American urological
association annual meeting shows daily use of Viagra can actually
reverse the impotence problem.
The study compared men who took Viagra on an as
needed basis, and a group that got 50 milligrams of Viagra nightly
at bedtime.
On year later, only 9.7 percent of those who got
Viagra on an as needed basis had normal potency based on a questionnaire;
but in the nightly group, 59% had normal potency. Dr. Frank Sommer,
the study author, says, We were surprised that 60 percent which
is a lot, its really a lot, reported so well.
What they demonstrated was that on those who took
Viagra daily, there was improvement in arterial flow as compared
to when they started. The thinking is the use of Viagra prevented
muscle wasting in the genital area.
Its composed of smooth muscle, and if you dont
use it, smooth muscle undergoes atrophy, atrophy and collage replacement.
And collagen when it replaces smooth muscles causes inelasticity.
So by quote, exercising, on a regular basis, versus
as needed, we see that for the first time, we see in this study
a benefit.
A potential cure for the patients like Bob.
I was very much impressed, Bob says, Its a big
deal to show its possible to cure patients. What we would like to
see at this point is that theres confirmation of this in the larger
population in different subgroups.
The average age of patients was 47 years old. It
looked at individuals with impotence from all physical causes. Other
studies also showed Viagra
can help bring about return of spontaneous potency in men who have
had their prostate out. Removing the prostate causes permanent damage
to the nerves, but these men were able to get themselves off of
Viagra altogether.
