Oh, it's actually the active ingredient. That's kinda bad.

They’d be really lucky not to have killed anyone.

why does Viagra have to be such a controlled substance? what's the big deal

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 9 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Heart attacks and catastrophic blood pressure loss. Anything that fucks with blood pressure, and that's what an erection is, can kill you pretty easily if you don't know what you're doing.

It doesn't. They died.

this kills the erection

I'm personally fine with it, but I'm also on the side of legalizing everything.

That's a lot of the problem with them selling it as a chocolate after all, it pretends you're not dealing with serious medication and not thinking in terms of poisoning and multiplier effects. People simply don't think about these things without warnings.

one thing about the us is if healthcare is not a right and provided publically then they should at least put no restrictions on drugs of any kind. People should be able to self medicate if we are not providing doctors to decide on medication.

it's actually a heart medication and can kill you if taken improperly.

I support undermining the pharmaceutical industry with a line of gas station flavored bear-based beverages.

[–] JillyB@beehaw.org 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Gas-station flavored? So like, roller hot dog?

[–] Hacksaw@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

That made me chuckle audibly

[–] Ulvain@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago

Better than their other flavors, diarrhea vanilla, found to have real exlax...
