If the suit is groundless it will likely get tossed. The lady that sued
McDonalds got almost nothing for her time and trouble. The guy that tried to
sue the cell phone makers got nothing but a bill from his attorney.

I want to know about Viagra (etc.). I have asked this
elsewhere, without getting any useable answer:
Do Viagra do anything for you if you don't need it?
To put it plainly: if you get boners when you want them and
when you have something to do with them, does Viagra add
anything?

Yes. It even has an effect on women who take it.

Sure. Everything looks blue. Sort of like an acid trip,

In a nutshell (sorry), no. Sildenafil (Viagra) and tadalafil (Cialis)
work by blocking a an enzyme called phosphodiesterase-5, or PDE-5. This
helps the smooth muscles in the penis relax and widen, which allows for
more blood to enter. You may get harder, quicker, and longer lasting
erections using these drugs, but you won't get one unless you are
sexually stimulated in a way that otherwise would have given you an
erection.

If you don't need the drugs for medical reasons, though, what can
happen? Urologist Dr. Gregory Broderick at Mayo Clinic Jacksonville says
for younger men in the 20's, 30's and 40's, "The one potential benefit
is shorter refractory times... if you have sex twice in 24 hours maybe
you can do it three times in 24 hours."
Doctors say for some men the drugs don't work at all. And when they do
there can be side effects. According to Dr. Broderick, the most common
side effect is headache. Almost 15% of men on all three drugs report
headaches. The other complaint is flushing; 3% on Cialis and about 10%
of men on Viagra and Levitra report facial flushing. Derek hates that
side effect.

Advice: buy a pill-splitter from your pharmacist (they're cheap) and try
half a pill, a quarter of a pill, a sixth of a pill... Different people
respond differently to different doses, and only someone with frank
dysfunction (Hi, Frank!) is going to need anything like a whole tablet. Then
save money by getting the biggest-dose pill of all and using the appropriate
fraction. Seal the unused bits back in the bubble-pack to protect them from
moisture (or share them with your friends...).

Hey, at that age I could manage three times in no minutes.

Twice in 24 hours? Why that would amount to almost four hours

The pills are more specific, being inhibitors of the smooth muscle form of
phosphodiesterase (pde-5), whereas (IIRC) poppers would just globally give a
shot of nitric oxide, right? This assumes I remember exactly what poppers
are...

Those are whip-its and it's nitrous oxide. Poppers are amyl or butyl
nitrate. Nitric oxide is rather more toxic.

The pharmaceutical industry works on the same principle (or lack
of principles) as the automotive and tobacco industries: they
calculate the risk of lawsuits versus recall or lost revenue.
If the payout on lawsuits is less, they release the product, let
the public deal with the consequences, then fight and deny the
facts in court.
