Viagra, the first anti-impotency or erectile dysfunction drug, is manufactured by Pfizer. Viagra contains Sildenafil which is a component that serves to increase the blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation. This increase in blood flow makes it easier to obtain and then maintain the erection. Viagra® takes one hour to work and then works for four hours.

The myth about impotence is that it is considered a psychological or mental problem. In reality, medical impotence is caused more by physiological factors and less by psychological factors.
In some cases, impotence impedes sexual relation of males with their partners and results in a lower self-confidence and esteem. In these cases, impotence is more related to psychological factors rather than physiological.
Causes of Impotence
Physiological Causes of Impotence
People suffering from diabetes, hypertension (high blood pressure), heart attacks, strokes, high cholesterol, prostate problems, hormonal imbalance, abdominal injury or surgery have a higher risk of impotence. People who habitually smoke, drink alcohol or take drugs also suffer from a greater risk of developing signs of impotence.
Psychological Causes of Impotence
People experiencing abnormally high work pressure, stress, anxiety, depression, tension, or with side effects of medicines and insomnia or sleeping disorder, may suffer from impotence. These causes are normally related to today's lifestyle and living habits.
