Introduction : Les athlètes ont commencé à prendre du Viagra pour acquérir un avantage concurrentiel. L'utilisation de Viagra peut connaître un essor dans la communauté des sportifs en raison de sa capacité présumée à augmenter l’aptitude physique d’une personne. Cet article présente l’impact du Viagra sur la société, sur ses consommateurs et sur les organismes sportifs, et examine si ses usages prétendus à des fins de performance sont valables et sans risque.

Pharmacologie : Le Viagra agit en relaxant les cellules musculaires lisses par l'inhibition de la PDE5, ce qui augmente la biodisponibilité de la GMPc.

Résultats : Lorsque le Viagra a été administré, les sujets avaient un VO2 max plus élevé et récupéraient plus rapidement d'hypertension artérielle pulmonaire. Les autres résultats sont mitigés et mal établis.

Obstacles : Le fait de permettre le Viagra dans la communauté sportive pourrait susciter des inquiétudes auprès des organismes sportifs, et le règlementer pourrait affecter de manière inégale ceux qui en ont besoin pour une fonction sexuelle saine.

Conclusion : Ces résultats ne démontrent pas une corrélation directe entre le Viagra et l'amélioration de la performance athlétique. En outre, la prise de Viagra peut poser des risques pour la santé. Le Viagra ne doit être pris qu’après consultation avec un professionnel de la santé.
