Sextasy

Sextasy is a colloquial name for a combination of two drugs, ecstasy (MDMA) and Viagra® (sildenafil citrate).

The combination of both drugs is increasingly popular among clubgoers and on the rave scene. Use can be dangerous - there have been reports of heart problems. In addition to direct health effects, it is believed that this drug promotes risky sexual behaviour.
