Sildenafil for Sexual Dysfunction, SSRI Induced "A strong pill for erection, but with some side effects. 12.5 mg works great (strong erection) 30 min-1 h before and lasts for 3 h-4 h. It's easy to recover erection but can be lost sometimes. Side effects (0 h-4 h): - Stuffy nose. Side effects (4 h-12 h): - Stomach discomfort, indigestion - Sleepiness, trouble sleeping. Tried Levitra, not as strong as Viagra, but some side effects. I'm now trying Avanafil (25 mg) and by now, no side effects (maybe because of its PDE5 highly selectivity), but lasts only 2 h."

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "Took 100 mg at night, drank too much alcohol and passed out before it kicked in. I was sad the next morning that I wasted the product and money by falling asleep. However, that next day (16 hours later), my wife and I had an amazing session. She loved my member so much she actually spent more time enjoying it, which made me really harder and longer than ever before. She climaxed twice, awesome. It lasts a day."

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "I hear a lot about buying Viagra and other medications outside the United States, and I can only tell from personal experience that it all works well. I get the pills for my dude from outside the United States for quite some time now and do not encounter any problems. It's just big pharma don't want you to buy at their source countries. YES - big pharma is producing in India and other third-world countries, brings it to the US, and all of a sudden it is so valuable and of high quality. Think again."

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "I'm 71 and have been using Viagra or sildenafil for about a year. It is a wonderful drug, but getting the dosage right is critical. I can still get an erection without help, but it had become a bit unreliable. I started off taking half a 50 mg tablet. It certainly worked, but I felt it was just a bit too much. I now cut the tablet into 4 and find a quarter of a tablet makes all the difference and barely gives me any side effects. The half-tablet dose was too much for me. It gave a very strong erection but reduced the sensations and gave me a slight headache. So I reckon it's worth experimenting to find the minimum dose you can get away with. (NB the low dose works better on a reasonably empty stomach)"

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "I am 37 with an ED problem. When I first got 25 mg doses, it didn't work for me. I then tried the 100 mg dose, and it worked. So it's just the perfect dose. It varies from person to person and their medical conditions."

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "Well. What can I say - Viagra has been great. It works for about 6-7 hours with very minimal side effects. The only side effect I experienced was a mild headache the next day. I've been using it for 6 months now, and I haven't noticed any decreases in effectiveness/strength. I am only 29 years old though."

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "I am in my early sixties. I take a 50 mg and, like clockwork, I am hard in 45 to 60 minutes. No worries about keeping the erection long enough to climax. I can't believe just how good this drug works. Side effects for me are minimal."

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "Regarding the effect: I do notice an increase in blood flow and a better stamina using the pills (I use 50 mg). A side effect I have noticed is that my nose clogs up, so I seem like I have a cold for an hour or so after taking one pill. No other side effects."

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "I started with 100, then cut them in half. Last night I tried half of the 50. Found that 25 mg worked even better. I am in my 70s, and the milder dose gave little flushing and no headache. Much cheaper when you get 4 for 1."

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "I tried Viagra last night for the first time and was surprised by how effectively it worked. I am 59 and achieved the strongest erection I have had in years. Now I am experiencing the headache and eyestrain described, but having sex like a teenager was worth it."

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "I'm in my early 50s, I decided to give this a try, fatigue and age catching up with me, half hard most of the time. I took 50 mg and waited a couple of hours, went to bed with the wife. Wow is all I can say! Twice! We have enjoyed it ever since. Pricey though."

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "While this and Cialis may be wonderful for men... what about us women? We sure could use something to help us! This works wonders for my hubby... but it's killing me! Once, even twice in a day is great... but this 'old' lady can't keep up with this."

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "I’m in my mid-40s and have not been able to perform for the past few years like I used to. My erections were not strong and would go away quickly before ejaculating. I decided to talk to the doctor about it and set an appointment. The conversation with the doctor was easy to have, and we spoke about the symptoms. He gave me a few options, and we decided on Viagra to start with. The doctor prescribed 100 mg. With generics now available, I was able to get 30 pills for about $26 from the pharmacy at my local grocery store. I had read reviews and learned about the headaches. I took my first pill with ibuprofen to avoid a headache. About an hour later, things were ready to go. Our first session was great, lasting about 30 minutes and lots of 'Wow's. About 20 minutes later, ready to go again for another 30 minutes. And about 30 minutes after the second session, my wife asked if I was ready for another session, which I was. The only side effect was the flushing, but it was not bad."

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "Viagra works great. Take between 50 and 100 mg depending on the night's activities. Most of the time, I wake up the next morning with another stiff one. Two for the price of one. I'm 64, and the $50 price tag is too high anymore. Doc just prescribed the 20 mg generics. I think taking 2 or 3 of them will work the same."

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "I am 45 years old. I have been suffering from ED for the last 3 months. My physician suggested Viagra 100 mg. The India generic version is also available at a low cost, 15 Indian Rs per pill. I have tried it, it's great. I have found harder erections and have been doing sex twice a night. No side effects. I found it works for up to 15 to 16 hours for me."

For Erectile Dysfunction "I have been taking sildenafil for about 2 months. I have tried to follow all the instructions. The first time I tried 40 mgs and got a fairly good erection, firm but not really hard. Then I went up to 60 mgs, about the same results, maybe less. I went up to 80 mgs and had so-so erections, firm but not really hard. I went to 100 and have had better erections, but still not hard, and I always feel like I am about to lose it."

For Erectile Dysfunction "Had problems keeping hard for sex, tried a 50 mg dose of sildenafil, and within an hour, was rock hard. Sex lasted a lot longer as well, and was able to reperform another two times before both my partner and I were knackered. Woke up in the morning and was ready to go again. Didn't feel any side effects at all, so must say very good product and has certainly improved my sex life with my partner."

For Erectile Dysfunction "After about 2 years of not wanting to admit to ED, I went to the doctor and was prescribed sildenafil. I was given the 100 mg dose but thought I would start with half a tablet. Well, 45 minutes later, when things started to proceed in the bedroom, I was a very happy man, along with my wife! Not only was my penis slightly desensitized, my erection was harder than ever before! And even after climaxing, which was also a lot longer in happening, we were both over the moon! The erection didn't disappear straight away, so I could keep on going. Also, 16 hours later, still off a 50 mg dose, I'm still getting rock hard erections. All I can say is I'm a very happy man, and hopefully, our sex life will get back on track. No more anxiety problems for me!"

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "I am in my 60s. I needed a small operation which the consultant said might affect my sex, it did, and I slowly lost confidence. He suggested Viagra, and it failed the first two times, however, on the third time, it was fab. Your mind is very much in control, you MUST not expect the drug to simply work by itself. It works only when you are sexually aroused by adding to the natural process already taking place in your mind/body. Take your time, fancy your partner, and combine it with a little foreplay. With my confidence back, we have slowed down our use of the drug and often don't use it at all... Tip: Be relaxed, be very interested in sex, give her a nice massage, and it should work out fine."
