Norway Prison Offers Viagra to Sex Offenders
By Reuters
Published: 02/25/2002


Doctors at Norway's national prison are under scrutiny for prescribing Viagra pills to inmates serving time for sexual crimes, officials said recently. The chief county medical officer of health confirmed that Viagra had been prescribed to at least two sex-crime inmates but defended the use of the anti-impotence pills. 
'An inmate is a normal individual who from time to time -- when on leave -- wants to have functional sexual relations with his girlfriend or spouse,' Anders Smith said. 
'If they have a problem, they have the same rights as anyone else to get help,' he told Reuters. 
The governor of Ila national prison near Oslo said he wanted more information about the use of Viagra after a 42-year-old inmate, serving time for incest, was prescribed the pill and later sexually abused his 16-year-old son in the prison's visiting area. 
'We need a clarification of the situation. We need to know what's going on,' governor Knut Bjarkeid told Reuters. Under current rules, the medical records of the inmates are confidential -- even to prison officials. 
Bjarkeid said he had sent a letter to the medical authorities that oversees the health services of the prison's 115 inmates, asking for an investigation.

    Hiring an attorney can present confusing situations for someone. It’s hard to tell whether you’ll get the best service possible in your situation. You likely have a lot of questions. Will your lawyer hand off your matter to someone else? Will your lawyer return your phone calls? It’s hard to know without someone you can trust. If you been hurt in a rear end collision you need a lawyer. People in Central Texas have trusted Dunnam & Dunnam for almost 100 years for their most pressing legal concerns. They understand the value of a good advocate. They’re a family helping Waco families since 1925.

    I am 56 years old. I went the urologist since I was having trouble getting a full erection and maintaining it. I have a slight calcium buildup in the prostate. The Doctor issued me 100 mg pills to try. I get 4 per month under insurance. This allowed me to cut them in half or even quarters. I tried a half which was 50 mg and it provided me with a full erection without any problem. I then tried 25 mg and again it provided a full erection. In each situation it took about 15-30 minutes to really work. This is a fantastic product. I would highly recommend it. https://villagepharmacy2.com/viagra-in-south-africa/viagra-three-reasons-to-take-it-and-even-more-reasons-not-to/
