Viagra doesn't "make" you hard, you still need sexual stimulus. I've taken it and then the sexual opportunity fell through, so I went back to coding or whatever, and I didn't notice anything different.

First NIH said it does: https://www.nih.gov/news-events/nih-research-matters/viagra-... Then it doesn't: https://www.nih.gov/news-events/news-releases/nih-dream-stud... Then it does: https://www.ox.ac.uk/news/2024-06-07-sildenafil-viagra-impro... Who knows what to believe.
> Who knows what to believe. This may be a sincere statement, but I'm not sure it's a helpful one. What data do we have? A 2:1 advantage in published studies that it does help. Since there is no such thing in science as absolute proof of anything, these are pretty good odds. Certainly more work will be done in the future to try to replicate the results and figure out the one negative outcome. But until then, we canno…

Does it need to be, though? You can survey healthy but senior populations about their habits, and then over the following years track what happens. If medical records were public, the answers could even be in those for any medicines that are prescription based. You could then make statements like "A% of patients who took drug B within C years did/didn't develop disease D".
That's not a randomized controlled trial though. You might find a correlation, but you couldn't actually establish causation, or eliminate hidden variables.
An RCT doesn’t prove causation, it only might observe another correlation that contributes to our causal inferences based on the convergence of evidence.
We don’t have RCTs for most things that you take for granted.

It is prescribed for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH; an enlarged prostate) which include difficulty urinating—not just for ED
If you want to pretend to be old, Strattera gives you the effects of this as a side effect.

Not OP, but their statement read as if that effect wears off after the body develops tolerance to the medication. So, yes they did for a while (it was annoying) but no they don't now (for a few months)
There is NO tolerance development, on the contrary, increasing vascular health by long term PDE5 treatment and increasing psychological confidence over time make the treatment more effective with time. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S205011611...

Or they grew accustomed to the erections and no longer found them annoying, which is how I read it.

which one makes the priest hard?
All you need is regular exercise to improve blood flow
> The OxHARP trial was a meticulously designed double-blind, placebo-controlled study involving 75 participants who had experienced a minor stroke and showed signs of mild to moderate small vessel disease. I mean, I think if going for a walk were a magic bullet for stroke rehabilitation, someone would have noticed by now.
