A little over half of all men suffer from the embarrassing issue of erectile dysfunction. If E.D. effects you, Viagra can probably do wonders for your sex life. Viagra is sometimes called Sildenafil as well. You do not need a prescription for this medication, so if you are worried about talking about it with your doctor you may not even need to (unless you have health concerns.) It works by increasing blood flow and opening up blood vessels wider which results in an erection.
You will still need to combine it with sexual physical stimulation for it to work. The most common dose is 50 mg taken orally once per day. You should take it between half an hour and one hour before you plan to engage in sexual activity. Don’t take it four or more hours before sexual activity. A meal that is high in fat content can make the medication take longer than expected to work. Do not take more than the recommended amount. It’s used as needed, so you do not need to take it everyday unless you need to use it daily. If you live in Australia, you can order it quickly and simply online which is great for privacy. A few places you can purchase it from are www.edonlinestore.net, viagrastoreaustralia.com but there are plenty of others that can be found with a simple Google search. There are generic forms of this medication available as well. Viagra is a pretty safe and efficient medication, but there are a few side effects. A few are headache, a stuffy nose, redness of the skin, back pain and muscle pain. More serious ones include breathing difficulties, faster heartbeat, and swelling in the hands and feet. Few people have experienced temporary hearing and/or vision loss. If you experience any of these difficulties, please stop taking it and call your doctor just to be safe. Stop using it and call your doctor right away if your erection lasts more than four hours or is painful. Viagra is also not for everyone. You should not take Viagra if you have issues with your blood pressure, a past with heart attacks or liver and kidney issues. There are other other situations where Viagra may not be safe for you, so contact your doctor before taking it, if you are concerned about your health.
Viagra should not be mixed with other nitrate medications because it can cause complications with blood pressure. Avoid taking it with alcohol use. It can also have an interaction with certain vitamins and natural herbs as well. Like all medications, be sure to store Viagra in a dry cool place out of direct sunlight and out of the reach of children. If you are under 18 years old, do not take this medication without speaking to a physician first. It is not meant for women or children. Viagra does NOT protect you against STD’s so be sure to practice safe sex as usual.
