 "Potency pills" are marketed under various brand names in various shapes and colors, but they can be divided into two basic groups according to the substances they contain:
1. Those that directly increase and hold the blood flow to the penis by blocking a certain enzyme (substance: phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitor), and 2. Those that work indirectly by first stimulating some process in the brain (substance: apomorphine).

"Potency
Pills"
In recent years, several
pharmaceutical companies have introduced
pills that can facilitate tumescence and
thus help men in achieving erections.
Depending on the product, these oral
medications either directly increase and
retain the blood flow to the penis or
they work indirectly in the brain which,
in turn, sends out the necessary
signals. However, in either case some
initial sexual response, however weak,
must be present for the pills to work.
These so-called potency pills should be
prescribed by a doctor only after a
physical examination,
since they may interact in undesirable
ways with other medications, and for men
with certain conditions like eye
problems, heart problems, or high blood
pressure the use of some of these pills
could be very dangerous indeed.
