Viagra® (sildenafil citrate) is a prescription erectile dysfunction drug that has been used by more than 25 million men in the United States. But a recent study has linked sildenafil — the main ingredient in both Viagra and the hypertension drug Revatio® — to an increased risk of developing melanoma, an aggressive and deadly form of skin cancer.

If you or a family member took Viagra or Revatio and developed melanoma, our drug injury lawyers want to speak with you. We hold drug companies responsible for their negligence, and we’ll fight to help you get the compensation you need for your medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. So don’t wait. Contact our law firm today, and let us help you get started with your claim.

Study Finds Viagra® Melanoma Dangers

study of nearly 26,000 male patients conducted by the Department of Dermatology at Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University linked drugs containing sildenafil to the development of melanoma. Researchers concluded that men who take drugs containing sildenafil — even once — are 84 percent more likely to develop melanoma regardless of their family histories of cancer, medical histories, or sun exposure where they lived.

The study’s co-author suggests that Viagra and Revatio may lead to melanoma (as opposed to less invasive forms of skin cancer) because sildenafil affects the same genetic pathways that allow skin cancers to become more aggressive.

    After my car accident, I wasn’t sure if I needed an attorney. I called Ponce Law for a free consultation. I’m so glad I made the call. I wanted a local attorney, and from the first call, to when my case was settled, I felt heard, valued, and taken care of.

    I was on I-40 coming into Nashville and a car ran into the back of me. The accident was serious, and I needed surgery. I did ask an attorney friend of mine whom I should call, and he said call Ponce Law. The folks at Ponce Law were outstanding and got us a large settlement.
