Recent medical research by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) suggest that the use of these erectile dysfunction drugs such as Viagra, Cialis and Levitra can increase the patient's chances of contracting a life-changing condition known as non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy, or NAION, a rare ailment which can lead to complete blindness.
In 2005, FDA research found 43 reports of NAION among erectile dysfunction drug users. NAION is caused by the blockage of blood flow to the optic nerve and is most common in older people, who are the predominant users of Viagra and the other erectile dysfunction drugs. Tragically, none of the companies who market and distribute ED drugs posted any kind of warning about the potentially disastrous effects of NAION on the product, until the FDA required such documentation. The glaring oversight led thousands of men to suffer at the expense of big business greed and negligence.
Those who would withhold vital information for personal profit must be held accountable for their actions. Those who have lost their sight as a result of the use of erectile dysfunction drugs should not feel that they must bare this tragic burden alone. Sharing your experience with caring, experienced and aggressive NAION lawyer is the first step in seeking the reparations you are entitled to.
