March 27th, 1998 26 years ago

The FDA approved Viagra, the first oral treatment for erectile dysfunction (ED) in the United States. This groundbreaking decision came after extensive clinical trials that showcased the drug's effectiveness. Discoveries in the late 20th century led to the development of Sildenafil Citrate by Pfizer, which transformed the treatment landscape for ED. The approval marked a significant advancement in men's health, addressing a condition often shrouded in stigma, allowing millions to seek help openly and confidently.
