A new alternative to Viagra is being developed with the help of spider venom.

Yep, scientists have actually created a synthetic version of the molecule and are using it to treat men with erectile dysfunction.

It’s called BZ371A and it’s derived from the venom of a banana spider.

If you get bitten by one, you may experience pain, dizziness, cramps, profuse sweating, weakness, and changes in heart rate.

It has a lot of nasty side effects, some of which could even be fatal.
