Evoking visions of Big Brother, Britain’s National Health Service toys with the idea of limiting the number of Viagra tablets that doctors can prescribe in a month. For now, it’s just an idea and not yet a law.

Regulators in Britain may be a bit too involved in its citizens’ sex lives.

According to Daily Mail, in the United Kingdiom, general practitioners were being told by managers at the National Health Service (NHS) that they should try to limit patients’ Viagra (and two other ED drugs) to only two pills per month “on the assumption that patients will have sex only once a fortnight.” (That’s every two weeks for you Yanks.)

The regulators must think that men between 40 and 60 are losing their appetite for sex because the Department of Health had previously suggested that middle-aged men only needed Viagra once a week—because that was how often they were having sex.

The Big Debate

Of course, for the NHS, limiting tablets would mean cutting costs. Currently, men can buy pills very cheap or get them free if they have certain conditions, such as diabetes, prostate cancer, multiple sclerosis or kidney failure.

But critics warn that rationing pills that treat erectile dysfunction will cause anguish among patients, and as Richard Hoey, the editor of Pulse, pointed out, “Limiting patients to drugs such as Viagra just twice a month is to treat sex like an unnecessary luxury.

Ask most doctors and they will say that being able to live a satisfactory sex life is a key part of health and well-being.”

Is It the Law or Just a Guideline?

After a bit of pushback, a spokesman for the NHS pointed out that the rationing of ED pills is simply a recommendation, not an order. After all, it’s the national “Blacklist” and “Greylist” that tell doctors what drugs can’t be prescribed on the NHS or can be prescribed in only certain cases.

As one doctor, who represents a committee of general practitioners, said: “It is getting in the way of GPs having a sensible dialogue with patients about their requirements.”

For now, dosing will be at the doctor’s discretion.
