These drugs are prescribed for "erectile dysfunction", which usually means "can't get it up at all'.

And that "four hour" warning is very very real; my ex- (a nurse practitioner who works in emergency medicine) explained that when a priapism (which is what that is called) lasts for too long, the blood pooled in the corpus cavernosum starts to clot...and may need to be drained surgically.

Ew.
