Erections are stronger and longer-lasting.  That's about it.

I have a prescription for it and only use it recreationally.

You may have any or all of these side effects. Headache, stuffy nose, eyes sensitive to light, back ache  (usually the next day in my case), blue vision ( you see things through a blueish tint). I have experienced all but the blue vision. Advil takes care of the headache. Nasal spray works well for the stuffy nose. Sunglasses of course for the sensitivity to light. Bright sunlight on a summer day is a bitch. These side effects are usually gone 4 to 6 hours after I took the pill.

If you don't really need Viagra your erection could be so hard as to be uncomfortable for you and/or the lady.
It is true the recover time can be shorter depending on whether you need the Viagra or not and what is causing your ED if you have it.

I have noticed the effect of being able to get an erection lingers until the next day.

Some have reported here that the Viagra makes it difficult to achieve orgasm. I have not experienced this except once and then it is not certain that the Viagra was the cause.

I use the 100 mg dose. It is a prescription from my doctor.

I'll add here that it is not a good idea to use this stuff if you don't need it.

Viagra works well,  Best if taken at least an hour before.  
Levitra works fastest and seems to last as long.
Both of these two caused flushing (red face) for me.
Cialis takes longer to take effect but last way longer.  I've taken it Friday night and been ready and willing all weekend.  With less of an issue with flushing.  Unless you need quick response, I think you can get more bang for your buck with Cialis.
All three are the same price (depending on your insurance).

Gives a pretty good woody,

but can delay or completely do away with the O.

My guess is it's like the first time you do blow...gotta crawl before you walk lmao. Can we go back

to dick size theads and clients dying during a date...thanks.

I've recently started trying Viagra...only taken it a half dozen times.  It really only worked well enough to actually stay hard one time out of all those.  I've had no problem at all reaching orgasm though. Two pops usually.  And virtually no side effects other than a tiny bit of light-headedness if I use it early in the morning.

In fact...I just decided my better course is to get healthier.  Lose some weight, exercise more, eat better.  I despise having erection issues so it's a good motivator.  Getting old sucks.

I First tried it 10 years ago.

1. Sildenafil citrate "Viagra" is a drug developed for "circulatory" problems that was found to serendipitously allow more circulation to the penis. Hence treatment for diabetes related ills became of far less 'Market' importance.


2. It is NOT an aphrodisiac.

3. The amount of food in your stomach and its "fat" content will delay Viagra'sabsorption along with the acute as well as cognizant effects by as much as 4 HOURS!

4. "Flushing", light-headedness, "spottiness" of vision, and sometimes a mild headache can be experienced; Especially if taken on a dead-empty stomach. But a "dead-empty" stomach allows for the quickest and most "acute" effective absorption.

5. I've personally experienced a heightened sense of "exhaustion" after a session of Viagra charged sex.

6. Treat yourself to a nice, relaxed meal after sex and #4 and #5 will quickly pass.  

7. If taken along with "nitrates" it could stop your heart.  

The first time I took Viagra, I took it after dinner and the results were good a couple of hours later in bed.  But on the evening of my S.O.'s birthday, things were different. I drove to her apartment to enjoy appetizers and wine before heading downtown for a celebratory dinner. As soon as I arrived, I sneaked a Viagra so the little pill could get going on an empty stomach. Later, at the restaurant, we dined lavishly. There was a fair amount of fine wine involved. A little woozy as we left the table, I handed her the car keys. She drove home, and we hit the sack. The sex was okay. But sunrise saw the beginning of the worst all-day hangover imaginable. Not just headache but a don't-show-me-food-for-the-rest of-my-life feeling.

I had previously enjoyed events with much more wine than we had at the birthday dinner -- but without the Viagra -- and I had no hangover at all.

Do I have to choose between gourmet dining and gourmet sex?  Is there a middle ground?

I have used them both and I prefer cialis. Viagra didn't really seem to do much for me and I tried taking it 1, 2, and 3 hours before sex. Cialis on the other hand does great for me. The effects of the drug seem better and last a lot longer. No ill side effects for me other than feeling a little strange if I drink alcohol (guess that is why they tell you not to drink alcohol), but it is not that big of a deal. It makes me last a looooong time unless the girl is just super hot.

Check with your doctor about a trial sample of Cialis. I didn't ask, but my doc hooked my ass up. Seems the manufacture gives some docs a sample option where they write you a prescription, you go fill it, and its FREE! I got 30 pills for free in February and still have plenty. Now if you need more pills within a year, you will have to pay for subsequent pills (in other words, the manufacture is trying to get you hooked on the drug so you will be willing to pay premium price for them... you know, the same tactic crack dealers use). My doc told me that once a year has expired, he can just give me the same sample (did I mention I liked my doc?). The sample is only the 5mg pills, but luckily, that does it for me.

Hope that helps...
