ATLANTA (CBS Atlanta) – According to a recent study, men who take Viagra to treat erectile dysfunction could have an increased risk of developing melanoma.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, skin cancer is the most common cancer in the United States; and melanoma is the deadliest kind of skin cancer.
Researchers from various institutions, such as Harvard and Brown Universities, analyzed data from a study of over 26,000 men to see how cancer rates compared to those who took Viagra to those who didn’t.
They found that 6 percent of the men had taken Viagra, which suggested they had double the risk of developing melanoma that the men who didn’t take the drug.

Use Cialis? Or bring the dual bathtubs inside so you don't get too much sun exposure?

Mtn Gramma, I wasn't going to go there, but happy to see you did.

VL, please cover up and wear a hat. You are a lot closer to the sun in Burland than you were in Chicago.

Maybe he should take a trip to Brazil to avoid the melanoma issue. Don't know what other side effects there could be, however.
