Pink Viagra: Why This Is Not The Best Name For Flibansering

Flibanserin is the first non-hormonal drug approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the American food and drug control agency, to treat loss of sexual desire in women of childbearing age. This is a prescription drug, while sildenafil is available as female viagra over the counter. The two drugs act on different levels: sildenafil acts on the blood vessels, while flibanserin is an anti-depressant in its nature.

Flibanserin works by increasing dopamine and noradrenaline, the “excitatory” neurotransmitters that increase vital energy and desire, as well as acting on serotonin, which regulates mood. It therefore acts on the physical, neurochemical bases of female desire.

How is the action of flibanserin combined with a desire for free fall? Simple: having little desire is like being short-sighted. Flibanserin gives the lenses that allow a woman to see and feel the object of desire better. But they must be the right lenses.

Attention: flibanserin is not the new “pink Viagra”: it acts on the neurochemistry of desire, therefore cerebral, while Viagra (and its cousins: Cialis, Levitra, Spedra) act on the excitatory response of genital blood vessels (“cavernous bodies”) facilitating congestion and erection, if desire is present. Furthermore, the efficacy of Viagra and cousins ​​on arousal and erection is clearly superior to that of flibanserin on desire.

Does flibanserin work or not? Yes, but without great results and only if well prescribed, in women of childbearing age who complain of a lack of desire, not due to other medical causes, and after a careful diagnosis on the physical, psychological and relational causes of the sexual problem in question. It is important to understand though: it is useless to insist that the problem is to fill up with petrol, if the car has its wheels on the ground or the handbrake on.

Flibanserin is contraindicated in case of pregnancy, lactation, liver problems. Finally, the most frequent side effects include dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, insomnia, dry mouth, anxiety.

What are the advantages of Addyi? Having a drug that acts on the chemical basis of female desire, with discreet results if the diagnosis is accurate and the indication well placed. And again a though on the physical and biological bases, of female sexuality and the need for rigorous diagnosis of the various factors – physical, psychological and relational – that contribute to the loss of desire and other sexual problems, to treat them well, and to savor a happier sex life.
