Huh?


FDA to Warn Viagra Users of Hearing Loss

Viagra pill


Viagra and other impotence drugs are about to bear new warnings that users may experience sudden hearing loss.

It's not clear that the drugs truly trigger hearing loss, but the Food and Drug Administration decided Thursday to add a warning about the possible risk after counting 29 reports of the problem since 1996 among users of this family of medicines.

The impotence drugs Viagra, Cialis and Levitra will bear the warnings. So will Revatio, a drug for pulmonary hypertension, which contains the same ingredient as Viagra.
