What you need to know about effective dosing of Viagra
To start with, all medicines, including generic oral Viagra, work differently for different people. Therefore, you should not assume that what works for one person will work for another.
That being said, we can state with confidence that Viagra usually takes effect after 60 to 90 minutes. While the medication may improve your erections, it will not necessarily cause them. In fact, the medication can take several hours or even days to produce visible results.
To arrive at this point, Viagra works by increasing blood flow into the penis and relaxing the smooth muscles in the wall of the blood vessels. As a result, your erection will become stronger and last longer. So, your first priority when taking Viagra is to erect a satisfying, hard erection as fast as possible. You may then use the extra time to resume normal activity or enjoy some quality leisure time with your partner.
The active ingredient in Viagra is sildenafil, which is a drug that improves blood flow to the penis. When administered orally, sildenafil is rapidly absorbed by the liver and then widely distributed throughout the body. The medication has a relatively short half-life of only 5 to 15 minutes. In effect, this means that it will take a new dose of sildenafil to give you the same effects as the first.
How Many Tablets Should I Take?
When you take Viagra, you should take it as recommended by your doctor. Sometimes, this is a single tablet the size of a matchstick. Other times, it is a full dose for the day, two or three times daily. The frequency of dosing is based on your individual needs and the level of sildenafil in your blood. So, you should discuss this with your doctor to establish a proper dosing regimen that will work best for you.
Some experts recommend that you should take half a tablet or a quarter of a tablet 30 to 45 minutes before sexual activity. Others suggest that you should wait until you have ingested a meal or two hours after your last meal to begin treatment. The only way to know for sure how long it takes for your body to process and utilize the drug effectively is to consult with your doctor. With this information in hand, you can then choose the best time to begin your treatment.
Dosing While Taking Cialis
Cialis is another common ED drug that works by relaxing muscles in the penis. When used in combination with Viagra, it is sometimes prescribed to men who have experienced a loss of penile rigidity even after having an adequate erection. In such cases, Cialis may be used to improve the quality of your erections by increasing blood flow into the organ and stiffening the muscles. It is also frequently prescribed to men who have hypertension (high blood pressure) and diabetes mellitus (a blood sugar condition) to help control these conditions.
Like Viagra, Cialis is also available in a variety of dosage forms, including tablets, gels, and mini-tablets. Just like in the case of Viagra, the way you take Cialis will depend on your doctor’s recommendations and the nature of the prescription you receive. It is advisable to follow the instructions your doctor gives you regarding dosing and avoid using any supplements or herbal remedies without your doctor’s approval. In particular, avoid taking grapefruit products or drinking alcohol while you are treating your erectile dysfunction with Cialis because these products may cause some interactions that could harm you or your body.
As with any newly prescribed medication, you and your doctor should discuss the proper dosing of Cialis. Once this is done, you can begin to make necessary adjustments to make sure the medication is functioning at its optimum level.
How Long Does It Take For A Tummy-Taste To Go Away?
If you have ever visited Spain, you may have noticed that when local people walk by, they will often stop and ask you in Spanish “¿Cuándo vas a engordar?” This means, “When are you going to get fat?” The reason these people were asking you this is because they noticed your stomach sticking out. They were wondering when you were going to grow some extra pounds so that your shirt covers your belly button.
This type of question makes you feel self-conscious, especially if you are wearing a thin shirt and shorts. Of course, you may answer with the most logical thing, “¡No hay problema!” Nevertheless, you will feel a bit relieved that your stomach does not have a mind of its own and that you are not the only one who is wondering when this will happen.
Many people who take Viagra describe it as a “relief valve” that gives them a chance to let loose without worrying about maintaining an erection. While this may be true for some, it is not one of its defining characteristics. Instead, the medication is best described as a “bonus round” for your penis. In other words, it makes your erection more reliable and intense but the effects do not last as long as you would expect. So, even if you do not usually consider yourself to be overly concerned with the length of your erections, you may want to think about this issue in the case of Viagra.
When Should You Stop Taking Viagra?
You should not take Viagra if you experience headache, dizziness, flushing, or any sort of allergic reaction. You should also not take the medication if you have recently taken nitrates (drugs used to treat heart disease) or frusemide (an anti-uric acid medicine).
In any case, once you begin experiencing these side effects, you should consult with your doctor before continuing treatment. Your doctor can then help you decide whether or not you should stop taking Viagra. In general though, the side effects of this medication are mild and rare, especially compared to the risks associated with untreated ED. As such, it is absolutely acceptable to stop taking the medication and start over when necessary. It is also a good idea to discuss with your doctor the proper course of action if you experience any long-term side effects from the medication.
In summary, the short answer to the question “How long does it take for generic Viagra to work?” is usually 45 to 90 minutes. This is followed by a period of 2 to 4 hours during which time you can enjoy an improved erection that will hopefully become reliable and intense. Dosing is usually based on the level of sildenafil in your blood and how long you are planning on staying in bed. Once you have eaten, drinking alcohol, or taken any sort of medication (other than Viagra), the effects of the medication will be significantly reduced. So, you should not expect to achieve a “wood” erection (an erection that is very hard and thick) after just one dose of Viagra. As such, it is always a good idea to begin treatment as recommended by your doctor and, preferably, try different medications or combinations of medications before resorting to over-the-counter remedies or herbal supplements. Finally, if you have experienced any severe side effects from the medication, you should consult with your doctor before resuming treatment.
