Viagra keeps a 4-year-old alive

London: A four-year-old girl who suffers a rare illness is breathing life because of Viagra.

Doctors were challenged to find a treatment for Jessica Findlay, of Troon, Ayrshire, who is suffering from severe multiple bilateral pulmonary stenosis. But in vain. At last they came up with Viagra.

The medics found that the drug boosts her blood circulation and eases the strain on her heart.

"I was quite shocked, but it seems to be working,” The Scotsman quoted Jessica's mother, Rachel, as saying.
