Sildenafil and tadalafil — Viagra and Cialis — sell enormously in Nigeria, mostly informally, in an atmosphere of winks and euphemisms that suits counterfeiters perfectly. Erectile dysfunction drugs are among the most faked medicines on earth, and the 'gun powder' and 'manpower' capsules hawked in traffic are either useless or secretly (and unsafely) laced with unmeasured sildenafil. The genuine tablets, bought from a pharmacy, are effective and well understood: sildenafil for the occasion, tadalafil when a longer window matters.

Two health notes belong here rather than in the jokes. These drugs are dangerous with nitrate heart medicines — the combination crashes blood pressure — so a man on chest-pain tablets needs a doctor's clearance first. And new erectile dysfunction in a man over 40 is sometimes the first visible sign of blood vessel disease or diabetes; the symptom deserves a check-up, not just a pill.
