On this day fifteen years ago, the Food and Drug Administration approved Viagra for the treatment of male impotence; the first time a drug had been approved for this condition in the United States. We were pretty much aware that Viagra was going to sell itself, but that didn’t stop them introducing quite interesting advertising campaigns.
