The New Viagra For Women: Everything You Need To Know

The new 'viagra for women' isn't exactly identical to the male equivalent. Flinbanserin is the FDA-approved drug to treat low sexual desire in women. The little pink pill is said to have modest results, but it's effects and accompanying side effects are quite complex. Flinbanserin was developed by German researchers as an antidepressant which amps up certain neurotransmitters and increases dopamine. In clinical tests, it proved to do nothing to treat depression. The developers did however find that it increased libido. Unlike the more obvious effects of Viagra that induce and increase the strength of an erection, this female version has a more psychological approach to boosting sex drive. For the right woman, the effects of Flinbanserin could be monumental. It depends on your unique brain chemistry and the way the drug interacts with it. Among many criticisms of the drug is the fact that it tries to "jazz up women's sexuality to meet the hypersexual world in which we live". Some people believe a loss in sexual desire happens with age, and women shouldn't feel pressure to 'treat' it. Others say differently, as hypoactive sexual desire disorder is a proven condition found in women of many ages. Some of the side effects of Flinbanserin include dizziness, nausea and sleeplessness. But experts say that these are mild and the benefits of this drug outweigh the risks.
