The venom from the Phoneutria nigriventer (Brazilian wandering spider) can cause elevated heart rate, convulsions, shock, and even death.
But it can also cause priapism, a condition where the penis remains erect for hours on end. The bite’s unusual side-effect has long interested scientists looking for the next Viagra. A Brazilian pharmaceutical company is developing a topical treatment for erectile dysfunction derived from the venom. The treatment has already cleared an early human trial and will soon be tested in a Phase II study.
Soooo....
Let me rub some spider venom on my wang so that I don't have to take pills that take longer to act.
Yeah, no. Were I to need the ED treatment I can't imagine the idea of using an ointment derived from venom from this bugger's bite as being something I'd want to entertain.
