Viagra is not for everyone

Recent news says that in some countries there are proposed resolutions to sell Viagra without a prescription. Physicians don’t agree with this, and think that the availability of those treating options should be limited because they are high-risk drugs which require competent physical diagnosis and rigorous tests together with a medical history check-up before a patient is considered able to use this medication. In contrary, if Viagra or other related drugs are taken without medical guidance there is a high chance that the patient would experience some health threatening side effects. In addition to this there is a list of essential advises that everyone should follow before taking Viagra. First of all this drug is not for everyone.
