Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "Suffering from mild ED, stress-related. Took 25mg. Mood wasn't there, and it didn't work as I thought it would. Fell asleep, woke 2 hours later, and noticed a full feeling. Two minutes later, it was on. I was pleasantly surprised, realized there has to be stimulation for it to work right, just thinking won't make it happen. Very happy with the results. After the first round, my wife just touched it, and boom, it was on again. Been a long time since that happened! Remember, if you take this, mood alone won't work. Get in there and have fun, it will work!"

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "After being a quadriplegic for 20 years, I found myself in a situation where sex was involved. Though I could get an erection, it was not fully hard and only lasted around 5-10 mins. One 100mg tab and to my surprise after only about 20 mins I felt myself stirring, though they say Viagra doesn’t cause erections, in my case it did. My penis stiffened to a hardness not felt since before my accident and stayed that way for almost 3 hours. Amazing, I thought as this was only a trial run and I had no one to share my good fortune. The effects were still felt for about 48 hours with my 'normal' erection being harder and longer-lasting, and I swear my erection is bigger in thickness and length. Probably from being fully erect after so many years. I am thoroughly pleased with the results, far beyond my expectations. I’m very happy."

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "I was having erectile dysfunction problems with my new partner, tried Cialis to no effect then was prescribed 100mg Viagra. Although expensive, it was well worth it! I now get erections like I did when I was 20 (I'm 47)! If you have erectile dysfunction, get to your doctor, and get them prescribed, YOU WON'T REGRET IT!"

For Erectile Dysfunction "I am a 78-year-old man. I have had ED for a few years now. I would get an erection, and it would die down before I could penetrate my partner. I tried 100 mg, and in about 40 minutes, I was ready. I was able to have intercourse and cum. My regular friend was quite impressed, and he is very satisfied, as I am. I do recommend this product."

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "All I can say is thanks to my doctor for Viagra! I'm only 48 but had been suffering occasional issues with not getting or keeping an erection, and it was becoming an issue. As any man knows... once you think too much about how important it is to get the erection, it's not going to stay or happen! The doctor recommended trying Viagra 50mg to get back into the swing of it after the usual checks. He actually said probably cutting the 50mg pill in half would work, but I popped in the 50mg anyhow at the end of a meal out and gave myself the recommended 1 hour. Amazing results, lasted 30 mins on this! Poor wife had to take a breather halfway, but she loved it! Half a pill next time, had slight dizziness. Repeat prescription for us!"

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "I started having trouble getting and maintaining an erection so I asked my doctor about the problem. He prescribed Viagra, and it works great. One hour after taking 50mg, I get a beautiful erection, sensitivity is good, climax is wonderful. My wife loves it and climaxes every time, sometimes twice. Side effects can be a flushed skin about an hour in and sometimes a bit of a headache (not severe, but there). Two aspirin fix things. Wonderful product. Happy wife, happy life!"

For Erectile Dysfunction "Viagra costs about $49 for a 50 mg tablet. A 20 mg tab of Sildenafil purchased with a legit coupon brought the cost to about $0.66 a tablet. Works as well as a 50 mg cut in half. For about $68 received 90 tablets. Why would anyone pay for Viagra when it is the same as Sildenafil? I am a 66 y/o with a happy wife. I just needed a little help and this did it for me without breaking the bank."

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "I cut one 50mg tablet in half and tried as an experiment, and I was able to obtain and keep an erection. I had no side effects. It was so nice to have a stiff erection. Although the 50mg tablets worked, I would get some of the side effects... not unbearable. I tried 12.5mg, and I could tell I was getting an erection, but the sensation did not seem to last as long."

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "Yes, I achieved good erections after about 40 to 50 minutes and yes, I could repeat the experience a week or two later; however, the side effects drove me away from it. Side effects: Annoyance, blue-tinted vision lasting about 2 hours. First, migraine-like headaches. No conventional medicines would relieve the pain, sensitivity to light, nausea, and lethargy. The most disturbing was difficulty swallowing for about 3-4 hours. I ended up switching to 'Levitra'. Only a mild headache and some other minor effects for 2-3 hours. Not quite as good of an erection though (80% to 90% as good)."

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "I had struggled for around 3 years after recovering from a heart attack with problems achieving and maintaining an erection during foreplay and attempting penetration during intercourse. At 64 and sexually active, I'm glad I listened to my wife who is 12 years younger than me when she encouraged me to speak to my doctor about it. I finally plucked up the courage to speak with him about my problem. Being aware of my health status, he prescribed Viagra 50 mg, saying that I should start with 1 tablet on an empty stomach 1 hour prior to sex. We gave it a whirl and WOW what a difference! Between 30 - 60 minutes after taking the Viagra, I am erect and rock hard with little stimulation. It's great to know my performance in the bedroom is back."

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "Just used Viagra 50mg tablet for the first time. I'm 43 and during sex, my erection can soften. Results were amazing, hard erection all night and in the morning, wife and I very happy, had slight flu-like symptoms later on. No headache and nothing serious. Would recommend and advise to buy branded tablets. I took Pfizer."

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "I am 62 and on medicine for high blood pressure. About 4 months ago, I could no longer get a hard erection to have sex. I had the talk with my doctor, and I was surprised. No problem, he would give me a prescription for Viagra. I took the first 25mg tablet, and within 30 minutes, I had a very hard erection. It was such a relief to now know I am capable of having sex again."

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "In my late 50s, erections had become unreliable during intercourse. As erections became more difficult to maintain, anxiety grew. Talking to my doctor made me realize I was not the only man suffering from this at this age. Viagra was prescribed. I use the 50 mg and am now able to have great sex again and maintain a great erection. Side effects - hot, flushed skin, a little blurry vision - for a short while - worth the benefits. If taken at night, by the next morning it still has an effect - with stimulation you can enjoy again! My wife was amazed at how hard and long lasting erections are. We totally enjoy using Viagra and our sex life is back!"

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "I was curious about Viagra for a few years every time my doctor asked if 'everything is still working.' I finally asked for a prescription and wish I had asked sooner. My wife and I are in mid-60s, and Viagra is making me totally dependable in the bedroom again, several times per week. Wife cuts 100 mg pills into quarters, which makes the cost bearable. Planning a session ahead of time adds to the excitement. It is great to be rock-hard again, and my climaxes are more intense. No side effects, except increased sensitivity to sunlight and a bluish tint. I highly recommend it to any guy who thinks he needs help."

For Erectile Dysfunction "So I'm younger than a lot of the posts on here, but for whatever reason, for the past couple of years, I had never been fully hard, and recently I wasn't able to get hard at all. A lot of anxiety came with that when it came to sex, and I think it just made it worse and worse (I stress pretty easily). I got all the tests done on prostate, testosterone, etc. Everything looked pretty good, my doctor recommended this. I took 60mg, and 45 minutes in, I could tell it was working. I told my wife to meet me in the room, and we had amazing sex. I came before her but was still rock hard, so I was able to keep going until she did (and was still hard after that). Such a great feeling to be able to do that. I think I'm gonna try 40mg next time because I probably could've gone 3 more times haha. I highly recommend, and apparently, there's a lot of younger guys with this issue, you're not alone!"

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "I am 46 and found that I was not consistently staying hard after prolonged sex or masturbating. My recovery time after orgasm seemed like days. I am not on any other medication, very active, and eat healthy. I also do not smoke or drink alcohol. I decided to bring it up and get a sample. I was pleasantly surprised! I did get a flush feeling that went away. Also, I might get a slight headache the next morning but can be cleared up by taking something. However, the benefits were solid erections when turned on. It also lasts, like others mentioned, into the next day but not as strong. Again, you must be turned on for this to work. If you are not attracted, in the mood, or desensitized/overworked then it may not work well."

For Erectile Dysfunction "I am a 57-year-old man. I have been experiencing ED for about 6 months. I decided to try sildenafil as I would get an erection and then it would go limp. My wife was very annoyed with me! I took 80 mg, and in 10 minutes, I was rock hard with the stiffest erection I’ve had in years. I do need to lower the dose as I would get erect easily for 12 hours. I was also able to ejaculate 3 times in my wife within an hour. I do recommend this product. My wife is satisfied, as well as my old tailor friend. He may try it as well."

For Erectile Dysfunction "I'm 53, and I have been using Viagra for two years. The first time I used it, I took a 100 mg tablet. The erection was rock hard, and the sex was long-lasting with my wife, who orgasmed twice. But I couldn't reach orgasm, even though I was rock hard. I had flushing in my face and a slight headache. My erection lasted a couple of hours but I couldn't orgasm. I now take 25-50 mg to reduce the long erection time, but I often don't feel stimulated enough to orgasm. I'm wondering if other men have this reaction as well."

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "I'm 46, a healthy bull of a man, but I have been using high blood pressure medication for the past year. The medication has made my erections not quite as firm as I like and can remember. Viagra - wow. It made me as hard as I was when I was in my 20s. I forgot what that was like. My wife and I enjoyed the heck out of my magic blue pill."

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "I'm 48, and it makes me feel 20 again 'down there.' I take 25 mg on an empty stomach, pre-dissolved in water, and it works in 10 minutes. Side effects have been very mild: stuffy nose and an occasional light headache. It allows me to be very effective for about 4 to 6 hours with a quick recovery time. This is a great medicine, but don't overuse it. Taking it every day is not as sweet as once or twice a week."
