Vardenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "I have been taking Levitra for about 8 years. Works very well, especially if I take it on an empty stomach. Very reliable - I have always been able to have sex after an hour wait. Stuffy nose side effect."

Vardenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "First time I tried this I was too quick to get with my wife. I only let a half hour go by. After we were together, I felt a bit disappointed. It helped but not incredibly. About a half hour later, after we made love, the medicine was obviously working full force. I made a point of waiting an hour at minimum before we got together. What a difference! It worked great. My side effects were flushing, stuffy nose, and a bit of anxiety (I’m anxious by nature trying a new med), none of the side effects could dissuade me from using this again. It is my hope to use this medicine as a bridge to better health and weight loss. I do not want to become dependent. If you’re having true difficulties, give this med a try. It worked great."

Vardenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "Have used Viagra 100mg split into halves or thirds for about 3 years, always works, but I notice that unless I take half, I better get on the job fairly quick, within an hour, and sometimes it's hard to orgasm. Also, I sometimes get a stuffy nose, which ruins the mood. So I tried 10mg half of Levitra. On the first occasion, I got hard within 20 minutes (actually Viagra has always been about 15 minutes), but then I lost my hard-on for a little bit and thought Levitra was a failure. However, it came back, and I would've been able to perform for 4-6 hours without a problem. The second dose was incredible, got very hard, and about 2 hours later got very hard again. Even the next day, I was able to get hard and maintain it. Also, I found it easier to orgasm."

Vardenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "I had tried Viagra and Cialis before Levitra. With Viagra 50mg I got a good erection, but I also got heartburn, a stuffy nose, and a headache. With Cialis 5mg I got almost no results, but with Levitra 10mg, I had a good erection that lasted, with very little heartburn, stuffy nose, or headache afterward, and another good erection the next morning."

Vardenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "Fast-acting (25-30 minutes) and very few mild side effects - stuffy nose. Can be taken after a meal so no empty stomach requirement. Delivers excellent long-lasting results without the Viagra/Cialis side effects."

Vardenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "I'm younger than most people who take this, but man did the results pan out. I was able to maintain an erection for four hours. I woke up with a stuffy nose and a headache, but my wife and I were super glad."

Vardenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "64-year-old male who recently underwent prostate cancer surgery. I have tried Cialis in the past, and it worked fine. Recently, I tried Staxyn (recommended by my pharmacist as a cheaper alternative) and found it to be every bit as good as the higher-priced products. I cut them in half (they go twice as far!), and they still work amazingly well. I get the flushed face routine and a stuffy nose, but I also get hard as a rock, so great trade-off."

Vardenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "My doctor gave me samples due to a recent ED issue. We tried it last night, and all I can say is wow. It works better than expected. I will say this is not for daily use. There are minimal side effects like headache and stuffy nose in the morning. The positive effects lasted at least 12 hours. I just hope my insurance will cover it."

Vardenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "I wanted to try something different that worked quicker and also on a full stomach. I was out one night and had eaten before taking Viagra and it took over 2 hours before it kicked in. By then, my girl was fast asleep (I did wake her up). My Dr. gave me a sample of Staxyn, and I tried it not long after this episode. It worked for me in about 15 mins. I was fully erect and was good even in the morning. Same side effects, could get a headache or stuffy nose. I love this medication, works quickly and don't have to worry if I have eaten, unlike Viagra."

Vardenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "Have been taking Staxyn for about two years. The first 6 months, it worked amazing. 3 or 4 times a night was no problem. Slowly, I have found a tolerance builds up, and now it only works about half as well as it did before. My side effects are a very stuffy nose and headache. I usually use a nose spray after taking it and also take Tylenol. This way, no plugged nose and no headache."

For Erectile Dysfunction "It works great, but I have had all different side effects at different points. I most always get a flushed face, but then again, you know it is working. Then I have had a stuffed nose afterward and a slight headache. I even once had the bright light effect at night, but it all goes away in time. I find the next day I still have nice erections, so it seems to work 24 hours for me."

Vardenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "I have been with my wife for a while and don't get turned on like I used to. Don't have any medical problems that I know of, I just can't get as hard as I used to, probably I would say only about 60%. Tried a 5mg tab of Levitra and it worked really well. Could get to 100% that night and in the morning too! No side effects other than a bit of a stuffy nose. I'll try 10mg next time and see what happens, overall, great! Don't like Cialis, it gives me crazy headaches. Vs are okay, just no off switch, these were just right."
