Purestock/iStock/ThinkStock(NEW YORK) — The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is expected to announce on Tuesday if it will approve, deny or postpone “Flibanserin” – the drug dubbed “the female Viagra.”

If the drug does get approved, ABC’s Chief Business and Economics Correspondent Rebecca Jarvis says you shouldn’t expect to see much advertising of it.

“Flibanserin” promised the FDA it will not advertise on TV or Radio for 18 months in order to help curb potential misuse.
