Viagra Information :: Pfizer’s Viagra Cures Jet Lag

7 10 2007

New viagra information from a report by newscientist.com, if you’re a hamster, the little blue pill from Pfizer, the miracle Viagra pill, could ease your worldly travels.

“Hamsters that received small doses of Sildenafil, sold under the name Viagra, adjusted more quickly to laboratory simulations of a six-hour time-zone change than animals in the control group.”

The viagra information experiment consisted of injecting the little guys with 70 micro grams of Pfizer’s Viagra, then their cage lights were switched on six hours prematurely to simulate a six hour time shift equivalent to flying from New York to Paris.

The Sildenafil-injected hamsters recovered from the jet lag 25-50 percent more quickly than the animals that were not given the drug. The drug, however, only worked when applied before an advance in the light/dark cycle, equivalent to an eastbound flight. It did not work in the reverse or what would be the equivalent of a westbound flight.
