    A controversial drug to treat low sexual desire in women won approval from U.S. health regulators on Tuesday, but with a warning about potentially dangerous low blood pressure and fainting when taken with alcohol.


    Moreover, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration said the first approved drug for the condition, to be sold under the brand name Addyi, will only be available through certified health care professionals and pharmacies due to its safety issues.


    The drug has been nicknamed "female Viagra" in media reports, even though it does not work like Pfizer Inc's blockbuster Viagra pill for men that in 1998 became the first approved drug for erectile dysfunction.


    Flibanserin needs to be taken every day. Unlike Viagra, which affects blood flow to the genitals, flibanserin works on the brain. It is similar to a class of drugs known as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or SSRI's, that include antidepressants such as Prozac.

    Seriously? Just No...No...Noooo! I realize this may be every man's dream, but comparable to Prozac? How many men would really want to risk their women becoming Psycho B*tches for a chance of a few more rolls in the hay, and only after 8 months?

    You apparently don't know men very well

      that is why I am asking. Viagra for men works through the circulatory system. This female version is screwing with the chemicals in a woman's brain. That is a big difference. Would men really want to chance or worse, guilt their woman that 'if you want to save our relationship...take these?'

      I would love to pop a pill like a guy can and enjoy sex more often, but this pill is just not it! I can only imagine the horror stories in the coming years!

            It changes the way serotonin works in the taker - usually for people who are clinically depressed whose serotonin doesn't work the way it should. This is supposed to balance the chemicals in the brain, not throw them into wack.

              that is what is so worrying. It may be quite effective for women whose chemicals are imbalanced, but many will actually take this pill who are not. They may be mentally bored or suffering from stressful situations or gasp! Just tired! Their significant others may encourage them to go on it. What then?

                I've done the Cialis thing. same thing as Viagra... those are just brand names.

                anyway, for the boys here... take one. you would never know if someone slipped you one. nothing changes.

                now - get turned on. wtf... my goodness - he all of a sudden even has a cape and mask! god damn.

                side notes.
                you last longer.... yeah, like 10 women at a time is not an issue - anyone else... it's ture, back me up.

                you recharge like you wouldn't believe. give me 14 minutes. round 2.
                you are a wreck by sunday.


                I got it when I suffered from some gut issues. but they are fun! at least I heard that from the wife of EVERY buddy I gave one to.

                    They can, you know, just say no. I hear counseling ain't a bad option in those cases .

                      when super single yes.... no wife... no girlfriend.

                      just money, a car, internet, dinner, Viagra.... I mean come on?!. I left a trail of wreckage in my younger years. not proud of it... it wears on you after I while to be honest.

                      but $20 a pill back in the day. but hey, dinner costs what? gas? my time (all the damn emails to get to this point)? now having to dump you?
                      It aint cheap being single!

                      drinking a little here...

                        Honestly, I am not the same women I was 20 years ago. Back then I was in an extremely abusive relationship. I have a metal plate in my neck today. I know that just telling a women to just say no or get counseling doesn't work. In counseling, I found there are many women with no real voice. They are too nice. They want to make it work no matter what! That is why I say mentally this is a disaster. I know there are many nice guys out there who respect their wives. Unfortunately, there are also many who really don't!

                          The issues go far beyond taking an SSRI then. Focus on those issues, rather than trying to force a wife to try to force a doctor to prescribe a pill.

                            it should be the woman... if you want talk to a doctor... if you want try it. my doctor handed me a sample pill and said "go home a play with it". really... ok. but with the side effects listed for this new pill... I wouldn't have done Cialis. no way. "total recall = don't f* with your brain pale"

                            Cialis was a test drug for people who had had heart conditions... it didn't help - but even test couple did report something go read it. go figure.

                            the first time I did Cialis........ massive back pain... like wow, this sucks. but that was only the first time.

                            remember what pot did the fist time it got you high

                              Naturally, it goes beyond. That is why I am upset that this was pushed through. Most couples will look at this as a miracle pill like birth control pills, but will the average couple realize how it was pushed through or take notice of the legitimate strong warnings?
