Efforts to expedite the sale of Viagra here

The Ministry of Public Health said that efforts are being made to expedite the issuing of pharmaceutical registrations. The president of the Association of Representatives, Agents of Pharmaceutical Products, Fernando Ferreiras had denounced that because of the two year delays in the issuing of registrations Dominicans would not be able to purchase the Viagra drug that is said to relieve men of sexual impotence. The Ministry of Public Health told Hoy newspaper that efforts are underway to accelerate the process which will benefit all new pharmaceutical products in general. Dominican sex therapist Nancy Alvarez said that instead of taking the pill, that is said to have undesirable side effects, men with sexual impotence problems should visit a sex therapist to determine the origin of the problem.
