Title: FDA advisory panel recommends approval of ‘female Viagra’
Post by: Chef Ramsay on June 05, 2015, 04:02:14 AM
The first-ever "female Viagra" came one step closer to coming to market,  as a key advisory committee to the Food and Drug Administration voted Thursday afternoon to recommend that the FDA approve the drug with conditions.

The committee voted 18-6 to recommend that the FDA approve flibanserin, a drug designed to boost the low sexual desire of otherwise healthy women.

The FDA usually follows the recommendations of its advisory committees, but not always. Its decision is expected by the end of the summer. The agency has already rejected the drug twice, saying the potential side effects of fainting, nausea, dizziness, sleepiness and low-blood pressure outweighed its benefits. Even on Thursday, the committee described the drug benefit as "moderate" or "marginal."

But after an afternoon of emotional testimony from women who suffer from low sexual desire, a condition called Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder, the majority of committee members said that, with proper warning labels and education, the drug, even with a moderate benefit, should be made available to women who now have nothing.

I just hope that this "female viagra" is free from the harmful side-effects which the original viagra can cause. Nope... I am not talking about all those guys who died of heart attacks and strokes after consuming viagra. I am talking about the dozens, who (permenantly) lost their vision after having viagra. As far as I know, they received no compensation at all from Pfizer.

Dont get your hopes up. Women, who needs this are either ill or well in their fourties and fifties. Women are wired differently and dont judge themselves on "performance" in bedroom, market for this drug ought to be fraction of what it is for men.

Men in countries such as Gambia and Kenya.  ;D

Female sex tourism is a very big industry, although it pales in comparison with the male version. In some countries such as Barbados, Jamaica, Kenya.etc female tourists from European nations such as Germany and England contribute a sizable chunk of the GDP growth. The main negative is that large numbers of these women return to Europe, infected with HIV and syphilis.
