Viagra / Sildenafil

**GiantsLife** · 07-18-20 17:11

As I am approaching 50 my performance has been lacking. I bought cenforce 200 (slidenfal) and wow it worked great but it turns out I bought the wrong strength. I had massive headaches that would last for 6 hours or more. Since I order these from India it would take a while to get more. I decided to cut up the pills to reduce the headache which helped somewhat. Do any of you guys have and methods that you use to cutdown on the headaches? I saw that somebody had mentioned a couple of alleve, but didn't know if there were any other methods? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Has anyone been able to verify this old wive's tale??

Haven't heard anything about grapefruit juice making things taste better.

I have heard Pineapple Juice and Honey are supposed to make it taste better though.

Thank you for sharing this info on credit card charges. Your experiences are pretty much what I expected.

**DaveSalem** · 06-23-20 17:52

Yes this problem happened to me with HIMS. Not only did the product not work, but they kept charging even after my script expired and they had stopped mailing it.

You didn't mention if you cancelled the future shipments. You need to read the fine print and look at the terms on your original order. On my two orders, I had to contact the company and stop shipments. One company cancelled my order and stopped my credit card payments. The other company moved, changed phone numbers and couldn't be reached. I sent them an email and didn't get a reply. I contacted my bank and requested that the credit card be charged back for the 2nd shipment. It took about 3 weeks but my bank cancelled the 2nd charge. I think my claim was allowed because the company moved, they didn't respond to my email and could not be contacted by phone. You want to get going on this ASAP if you need to get your credit card charged back. By the time you get this matter resolved, you will probably have another shipment and credit card charge. I never heard back from the company and kept my products that didn't work. Good luck.

Be careful drinking grapefruit juice with Levitra. Not sure exactly why, but the website explicitly states not to. Avoid alcohol as well. Worst hangover the next day.

It doesn't prolong how long the drug stays in the body, just increases the amount that gets in the body. One grapefruit (eat it or drink the juice) about 15-20 minutes before you take the pill will do it. If you are taking a cholesterol lowering drug (except for Crestor or Pravastatin). Be careful because the absorption of these are increased with grapefruit juice and can cause serious side effects from those drugs.

Generic from a pharmacy is fine.

But as stated in this form below, HIMS and Blue Chew don't have consistently good results.

Yes, no problem but as stated by another reply, it can cause headaches and flushing.

I sometimes pop a couple of Advil at the same time to lessen the headache.

Someone asked me once if I had been out in the sun, the day after a double-dose of Viagra. They noticed the flushing redness in my face.

I also chew the tabs, and let melt under my tongue. I'm older guy, on blood pressure meds. No problems. I did get bad headaches if I took 100 mg 2 hrs before start as recommended. Researched this and haven't seen any serious issues with V overdose other than prolonged erection, and never had that problem. YMMV. M2.

My insurance switched me to Cialis after taking Viagra for years.

I've noticed that it lasts several days! I always take it before an escort date, and works great, but I also take it (though not always needed) with the girlfriend if I think we're going to get lucky. Many times I took it and it didn't happen, but then the next night I notice the same "enhanced" effects.

Be sure to try it on an empty stomach and plenty of liquid.

It's essential to use fresh grapefruit or freshly-squeezed grapefruit juice. Packaged juice is pasteurized, and the processing might destroy the compound(s) that create the desired effect(s).

When lovastatin was the ONLY drug to lower cholesterol, it was very expensive and so we would use small doses that normally would not work and give it with grapefruit juice. Now we would not do that anymore cause there are many drugs that are generic.

If you were to use sildenafil with GF juice, you would want to use a very small dose, say 10-25 mg rather than 50. Cialis, same, 2. 5-5 mg max rather than 10-20. My suggestion. Skip the GF juice and use the correct dose (viagra 25-100 mg and cialis 10-20).

GG.

Decided to bite the bullet and go to my GP, and told him I was having ED problems. He ran some bloodwork, asked me some questions, but it was easy. I wish I had done it earlier. Ended up using GoodRX and I think each bottle I filled off the prescription was like $26 for 30 20 mg tabs?

Holy fucking shit the difference. I take 60 mgs, that's what I've found is most efficient, and around a half hour to an hour later I'm feeling a little flush, and I am hard as a diamond. I never had erections this good even in my prime. I can fuck any position and for MUCH longer. Probably due to lower anxiety, but I honestly do feel less sensitive. Better orgasms too, but again that could be psychological. I used to get too nervous fucking in public at like adult theaters and glory holes. Not anymore.

And my refractory period is much lower, and I think my doctor mentioned this could happen. I'm able to go again much sooner than before.

I am absolutely going to try ramping up, never exceeding 100 mg a day, but the reports where people are dosing over the course of the day are interesting. When COVID restrictions lift and my local adult theater opens up again, guessing there is going to be plenty of action, and I want to be ready to go multiple rounds!

So anyone reading this thread wondering if they should pursue ED meds, do it. It's life changing. The talk with my doctor wasn't weird of embarrassing, and even if it had been, it'd be TOTALLY worth the outcome.

So glad I brought it up at an appointment.

On another medication that can increase / decrease interest. Got the increased interest so mentioned that was leading to some embarrassment due to not being able to perform.

Got 8 tabs 20 mg of Sildenafil as a trial before I see the specialist.

Popped one almost right away since I was supposed to see a friend, but she ended up super busy.

Stopped at massage parlor instead that I knew did HE, didn't want to waste the tab I took.

Once she got me all excited I was like a rock for the entire time. No headache or anything.

Going to schedule that follow up with the specialist on Monday.

Thanks for telling us to bite the bullet on this.
