The little blue pill has grown in popularity in France recently, even though the cost of the medication is not reimbursed by the Sécurité Sociale. On average, Viagra costs around €72, but generic alternatives that cut the price by 25% are available.
Sales of Viagra in France topped €143 million in 2013, and experts predict this number will continue to grow.
