Company offers free Viagra to laid off workers

Losing your job may not be that bad after all.

Pharmaceutical giant Pfizer will give free prescription drugs - including the little blue pill loved by impotent men - to those who loss their jobs and health insurance.

About 70 drugs including the cholesterol fighter Lipitor are covered under the program, but Viagra is funny so that’s what we will focus on here.

The new program called MAINTAIN (Medicines Assistance for Those who Are in Need) was announced Thursday, May 14.

It covers up to a year supply of drugs for those laid off since Jan. 1.

Eligibility requirements of the new program include:

  • Loss of employment since January 1, 2009
  • Prescribed and taking a Pfizer medicine for at least 3 months prior to becoming unemployed and enrolling in the program
  • Lack of prescription drug coverage
  • Can attest to financial hardship

Yeah, there’s nothing so romantic as a guy who lets you know he’s taken his pill - the day they create a correspondent effective aphrodisiac for Himself’s female depository box, maybe we’ll revise our opinion.

By here we go
