Revatio, also known as Sildenafil, or Viagra, is a prescription medication that is used to treat erectile problems in men.
It is also commonly prescribed to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension, which is a serious heart and lung condition.
The biggest difference between Revatio and Viagra is the color of the pills.
Viagra is known as the “little blue pill”.

There are many generic versions of Sildenafil that have come onto the market recently.
Revatio is such a generic.
It is produced in the same facilities in India as the Pfizer made versions.

Hi! I’d like to share my Sildenafil testimonial. I started using Viagra in 2001 and its done wonders for my sex life. It was a bit costly, so I decided to try generics and they worked just as well as the original product.

I’d like to share my Sildenafil testimonial. A word to the wise: Sildenafil works, but it doesn’t work if you eat a lot and drink alcohol. I know it says so on the box, but now you’ve had it from the horse’s mouth.

I’m only 40 and my girlfriend is 12 years younger than me. When I began to have trouble getting and keeping an erection, I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to have sex again. I started taking a generic form of Viagra and what a difference! It’s great being able to enjoy my body (and someone else’s) again.
