In the last year, I started using Viagra (because of a daily prescription pill I take for BPH/enlarged prostate gland, Viagra is the only one I can take w/o chancing a dangerous drop in blood pressure) if I'm shooting more than one sex scene a day, or I am working for a particularly demanding company or director. I turn 69 this coming Friday, so I'm cutting myself some slack now in using Viagra if/as appropriate:-).

AFAIK, the Industry doesn't have a prohibition against using it, but seems to weed-out guys who take it and experience long delays in getting the money shot done.
