Viagra's quicker competition

You'll have to wait a couple years, but a new boner pill is in the final stages of testing with the Food and Drug Administration. And unlike Viagra and Cialis, biotech firm Vivus' Avanafil promises a hard-on in fifteen minutes.

"The magnitude of success in the first 15 minutes was surprising," said Vivus CEO Leland Wilson. Compared to Viagra's 30 to 60 minute reaction time, and Cialis' sluggish 30 minute to six hour turnaround, Avanafil may be preferred by those looking for a quicker pecker upper.

Porn star Dave Cummings already sees huge benefits for the industry. “There are some men — me included — who seem to get only marginal assistance from the presently available products, or who can’t take certain products due to prescription meds they take that might adversely interact; thus, the use of Avanafil might possibly fill the void for those men,” Cummings said.

Awesome. Because waiting half an hour before you can fuck is like watching paint dry. Unless, of course, you believe in foreplay.
