I just started using it to make sure I enjoy my sessions. After all I am 51 now. About a half hour after taking it my face gets flush, my eyes seem to get puffy and they definitely get bloodshot. I put a lot of effort into preparing for each session and this kinda puts a damper on things. I go in thinking its the first thing the girl notices.
Does anyone else experience similar side effects when taking it? Is there something else that works without the sides?
I have heard of others experiencing what you described and if it has those kinds of side effects on you, have you considered using one of the other two such as Levitra or Cialis? Levitra and Viagra are very similar in nature but it is my understanding that Cialis is different.
While all of these have side effects, you might have fewer negative effects with a different med. Also, are you taking it on an empty stomach or are you eating something either before or after taking it? If you are using it on an empty stomach, try eating. Just make sure you don't eat a high fat food or drink alcohol as the LBP reason for being consumed will be mitigated. I have been told by others that when they ate something that had protein like a steak, they saw the effects you descibed reduced to a very manageable level.
Eating will also reduce the effectiveness of Viagra, but not as much with Cialis.I have used both for years, kinda like you, I use it for insurance, just in case.When $$$, is at risk, I make sure I'm prepared.Lately the effectiveness of both Vitamin V and CIALIS have not been so effective,so I ramped up my game..I talked to my urologist (a friend also).. He said I should try the trimax injections if I really want to be rock hard and last a long time.I had him write me a script the other day. The needle is the same size as for diabetics. I also inject testosterone weekly for hormone replacement,it helps with sex drive and stamina, and also is great for energy and an overall youthful feeling. I can get erections from visiting Wal-Mart,while eyeball fuckin the trailor trash at the check out line,I'm 52 and workout everyday..Back to my original thought on injections..Since I inject testosterone , my urolgist said I wouldn't have a problem injecting the tri-mix..Its a very tiny needle that you use 3cc of the trimix, you prick your cock at the base on the side,,it really didn't hurt,mostly its in your mind,afterall your sticking a needle in you cock..After 10 min, I couldn't hide my erection in my pants, the head of my cock was poking up above my jeans.. The reason I like the injections is I have never experienced a hard-on like this,you could drive nails, and it is there to stay for an hour (TOWER OF POWER),,He warned me not to use more than 3cc, so I followed his order.I will also report that I probably gained an inch because of the intensity of this drug.. I use it only for those special times when I want to fuck like a porn star... Its amazing ... I had a lady say she never felt a cock get that hard..I likey..I believe in better sex with chemicals...
You might try using a smaller dose. I use a pill splitter and found that I can get an adequate result with only half or less (I am using the smaller dose to start with). I have also found that if I take it over an hour earlier, that the worst of the side affects diminish while still having a good result. BTW, the "effective" lasting time of these pills is half of the actual time that the drug is in the system.
I find it ironic that it is the relaxation of a muscle that allows the blood to flow to gain an erection.
I was prescribed a few of those once and found a whole one lasted 3 days. A quarter of one seem to have the same results but for a much shorter period of time. Maybe a lower dosage will work.
