Herbal viagra is a name that can be given to any herbal product advertised as treating erectile dysfunction. The name Herbal viagra is taken from the brand name Viagra, the name under which drug company Pfizer sells Sildenafil citrate, a drug that is used to treat erectile dysfunction.[2]
Because herbal products aren't subject to the same rigorous standards as are prescriptions or over-the-counter medications, it's not possible to endorse any of these so-called herbal Viagra products as "safe."
Sildenafil (Viagra) is a prescription medication used to treat erectile dysfunction. It works by increasing blood flow to the penis when a man is sexually aroused.
Many herbal products marketed as sexual stimulants claim to be "natural versions" of Viagra — but they are not the same as the prescription drug. Some contain substances (vasodilators) that improve blood flow by relaxing the walls of blood vessels. But no herbal products are as specific for blood vessels to the penis as Viagra and other similar prescription drugs are. As a result, these herbal remedies may cause generalized low blood pressure and restrict blood flow to vital organs.
Herbal viagra is predominantly sold through the internet, and in 2003, around 4% or 1 in 25 of all e-mail messages sent offered herbal viagra, genuine pharmaceuticals and other herbal remedies.
