We talk a lot about the proper and safe use of the magic blue pills in men – both healthy and not. However, today I would like to answer another interesting question: what will happen if a woman, teenager or child takes Viagra? Should you hide your sex improving tablets from your partners and children? Let us start!

The effects of Viagra in female patients

Before talking on what might happen if a child takes Viagra, let us focus on women. Have you ever seen Sex and the City? I’m talking about the episode in which Samantha became addicted to Viagra…

In fact, women can actually take their partners’ regular pills – it won’t do any harm! Moreover, now you can even purchase a special Viagra for women. It acts by increasing the flow of blood to the genitals (just as in men). In other words, if a woman takes this medicine, her sensitivity and arousal will increase. However, these pills will not help with an absent libido.

Anyway, nothing terrible will happen if a woman takes your blue magic pill. At the same time, do not forget about Viagra side effects, which could hit anyone, regardless of gender.

What might happen if a child takes Viagra?

We have already figured out how this drug affects women. Now, let’s try to understand what happens if a teenager or a child takes Viagra. Theoretically, your kid may swallow a pill accidentally, or try it intentionally.

First of all, I want to emphasize that this particular medication has certain contraindications, including young age of a patient. Moreover, if a teenager faces erectile dysfunction, you should immediately bring him to a specialist. Most often, such problems arise due to psychological factors.

Once again, do not forget that contraindications for taking the drug include childhood. Therefore, if a child takes Viagra, better search for medical assistance as soon as possible.

At the same time, scientists have experimented on treating pulmonary hypertension in young patients with Viagra. Still, the practice has not become widespread. In fact, potential risks to the child’s body might outweigh the benefits of such therapy.

The latest news have surprised even me: scientists think of the possibility to use the well-known Viagra blue pills as a treatment for COVID-19. On the other hand, right now, the scientific community knows little about a new disaster and how to deal with it, as well as about the possible treatment methods.

However, the very idea of using Viagra for COVID seems logical. This drug enhances the synthesis of nitric oxide by the cells of the body and dilates blood vessels. So, it allows better supply organs with oxygen. Thus, scientists hope that Viagra (Sildenafil) will expand the small vessels in the lungs and improve the vital indicators of patients with COVID-19. First of all, it concerns breathing easier.

Not the first time that Viagra has proven to be a multidisciplinary drug

Surely many heard that Viagra was originally created not for the treatment of erectile dysfunction, but for completely different purposes. Pharmacologists hoped to find a new cure for patients with heart and vascular diseases. But then, during the first tests, the drug showed an amazing effect on male sexual function. So, as everyone knows, doctors almost abandoned the use of Sildenafil (Viagra) as a heart and blood pressure remedy, and offered a new product to men with impotence. And it still works great. For more than two decades, men all over the world have found this medicine both effective and safe.

How can doctors use Viagra for COVID

Thus, a new proposal can make Sildenafil an even more multifunctional remedy. Of course, Viagra for COVID cannot work just like a remedy against a new pathogen. First of all, the very idea of using the drug involves helping to combat the bad effects of the disease. We all know that the virus primarily affects the lungs, but can also have a negative effect on other organs, including the heart. The ability of nitric oxide to relax blood vessels might help relieve symptoms and recover more quickly. Moreover, Viagra might be tested on medical personnel working with COVID-19 patients as a means of prevention. Scientists think that Sildenafil could even help avoid mechanical ventilation.

More details of the theory about the use of Viagra for COVID

Now experts want to test the effect of this drug to combat the consequences of COVID-19 in people who already have breathing problems, but who do not yet need mechanical ventilation. Scientists believe that Viagra will help expand the vessels that transport oxygen throughout the body. Also, they hope that patients will be able to overcome the respiratory complications due to the new virus.
