Description:
The paper explains that Viagra is not the first hypertension medication developed that failed at its original purpose, only to succeed at another. Minoxidil, which also lowers blood pressure, causes excessive hair growth, a side effect that made it unacceptable as an antihypertensive medication and approval was obtained for it to be used instead as a treatment for baldness. The paper discusses the details of a proposed study to identify the effects, if they exist, of Viagra on the performance and physiology of muscles of men actively participating in a weight-lifting or resistance training regimen.

From the Paper:
"According to Spark, "Hypertensive men taking sildenafil started to experience a surprising number of frequent firm erections". Not surprisingly, this unintended but serendipitous and potentially useful side effect was determined to be a superior application for sildenafil than its original angina target. As to physiological effects, researchers determined that, "Viagra changes penile functioning and in the end sexual functioning. The machine is improved from the inside. On the inside something happens to the machine to make it perform better than it had before."Sample of Sources Used:
