"Best results for me if I take the 50 mg dose before eating anything. After a meal, I find that Viagra does not help me get an erection for hours, if at all. If taken on an empty stomach, it works fast. I also get flushed, but this tells me that it's working. I get occasional headaches from Viagra, but the side effects are well worth it!"

For Erectile Dysfunction "Healthy, robust 53-year-old here... 50 mg works great but on an empty stomach. Slower and less effective on top of food. Reaction within 30 minutes, with better erections up to 9 hours later. Side effects: nasal congestion, flushing, fullness in head, eye pressure, sometimes increased heart rate and respiration. Poor sleep, next-day fatigue, and slight anxiety. I went crazy with this when I first started and took it every day for a week. Lots of fun. But it completely wore me out. No, it wasn't all the sex. It really does affect you in a negative way with too much use. I find increased side effects if I take it near the time of thyroid medicines. I take it once a week or so, and it's worth the side effects."
