Viagra Given To 6 Month Old Baby

Lewis Goodfellow has made medical history.

The big Viagra story of today is that a 6 month old baby who was born prematurely has been saved from certain death by the erectile dysfunction drug Viagra. Lewis Goodfellow who was born in Newcastle at only 24 weeks has major health complications and weighed only 1lb 8oz at birth. He has been plagued by heart and lung problems from the first day of his existence in the world. One of his lungs collapsed and it was noted that a duct in his heart was not properly closed causing his blood flow to suffer. The doctors repaired this duct with minute surgery using silk thread.

The real problem was however that despite all these interventions his lungs were not able to get oxygen into his blood stream and it was only when he was administered the impotence drug Viagra that things really started to look up. His worried parents had even been advised to start making funeral arrangement before the idea of using a very small quantity of Viagra was touted.

Lewis Goodfellow has made medical history in becoming the youngest ever UK user of the impotence drug Viagra taking the prize away from two-year-old Ben Hayes who was only the record holder for one month. Doctors are increasingly coming around to the idea that the active ingredient in Viagra called sildenafil citrate can be used to open the arteries and blood vessels around the heart area as well as help men with erectile difficulties. Viagra may soon be used more often in cases like this which will no doubt please the men at Pfizer.

The treatment with Viagra was only given the go ahead after Lewis Goodfellow’s parents had been consulted and at present it can only used by doctors after all other options have been exhausted. Ukmedix News will be following Lewis’ progress and will keep you up to date with any new developments.
