So you’ve decided to try ED medication (erectile dysfunction medication). Congrats! That’s a pretty important decision to make, especially since there are so many different brands and types of drugs out there. It can be pretty overwhelming trying to figure out which one is right for you. Maybe you are wondering, “How do I compare Viagra and Levitra? What are their differences and what makes one better than the other?” Hopefully, this article will give you a better understanding of what to look out for when choosing the right ED medication for your needs.
What Is ED medication?
Just to put things into perspective, let’s discuss what ED medication is and isn’t. First of all, let’s establish that ED medication is a form of’statutory rape’ – it’s not really a drug, but a legal term used to describe a variety of medical experiments where younger people are pressured into participating. This pressure might come in the form of blackmail, emotional manipulation, or even violent threats. Typically, the younger the person, the more vulnerable they are to these kinds of threats. So while the older you get, the less statutory rape you’re likely to encounter (if any at all).
ED medication is also sometimes referred to as ‘chemical rape’ or ‘chemical castration’. It was originally developed as a way to combat sexual desire in men, but has since been shown to have a variety of positive effects including increased libido, penile girth, and stamina. One of the most popular ED medications is Viagra, which was originally developed for use by heart patients who experience ‘edema’ (swelling). While there are similar medications aimed at reducing prostate cancer (enzalutamide), there isn’t any medication specifically designed to combat sexual desire in men. Some of the more popularly used ED medications include Viagra, Levitra, and Cialis.
The main difference between Viagra, Levitra, and Cialis is that while the first two are classified as oral medications, Cialis is a cream that is applied to the penis before intercourse. This can be a big advantage, depending on how you feel about having a penis cream applied to you before sex. Some people experience extreme anxiety about having something applied to their penis during sex, so the choice of whether to use a cream or an oral medication may be something you have to decide upon. Another important thing to keep in mind is that these medications are not for use by women or children, even though some of the more popular brands are often prescribed for them (and often billed to insurance companies as ‘rape drugs’). It’s a relief to know that these medications are not meant for females, as this often leads to accusations of being an ‘angel of mercy’ injecting men with narcotics – which is pretty far from the truth.
Is It Safe To Try ED medication?
The short answer is: it’s very safe to try ED medication. In fact, the FDA recently approved a medication called Osmotic TIA (trade name: Tadalafil Orally Disintegrating Tablet) for use by boys as young as 12 years old. So while it’s not recommended for use by anyone under the age of 18, it is perfectly safe for adults to try ED medication. The older you get, the more you’re at risk for heart disease and other conditions, but statistically, the chance of experiencing adverse effects from ED medication is extremely low.
In terms of safety, these medications are actually quite comparable to each other. All of them are classified as oral medications and they’re all (as the name would suggest) used to treat erectile dysfunction. The chances of experiencing an adverse effect are minimal, but it’s still something to keep in mind. Remember though, as we discussed above, these medications are not meant for children or women.
How Effective Are They?
Now that we know what ED medication is and isn’t, let’s discuss how effective these medications are. As we established above, these medications are used to treat erectile dysfunction in men and while they do have positive effects, they’re certainly not a guaranteed success. Like any other medication or therapy, they’re not a cure-all and they might not work for you. This is why it’s important to do your research and try a few different medications before making a decision. Fortunately, for those who do experience positive results, these medications can be quite effective. In fact, according to research publications, approximately 60 to 70% of men who use ED medication experience significant improvement in their erectile dysfunction symptoms.
As with any new medication or treatment, there are various things you need to keep in mind. One of the most important things to consider is how you’re going to take the medication. Are you going to mix it with food or drink? Some men prefer to take their medications at night, while others feel they work better when taken in the morning. You need to find what’s most convenient for you and stick with it. Remember though, the medication won’t do you any good if you don’t take it.
What Forms Do They Come In?
One of the biggest problems for men who experience erectile dysfunction is that it can frequently affect their sex lives. In most cases, a man with ED will not be able to maintain an erection long enough for intercourse. This means that if you’re trying to have children or are married to someone who is, you might be at risk for infertility. Fortunately, there is a treatment for this issue and it is called Intracavernous Injections (ICI). This is a procedure where a small needle is inserted into the penis and a small dose of medication is injected directly into the cavernous tissue (where blood vessels are located).
The most popular oral ED medications, Viagra and Levitra, are generally taken once or twice a day. It is advised by physicians not to take your medications more frequently than that, as this can increase the chance of experiencing adverse effects. If you’re just starting out, it may be a good idea to try a low dose and see how you feel. Once you’ve established a tolerable dose, you can consider increasing it.
What Are The Adverse Effects?
As we discussed above, these medications are not for use by children or women. Even though they’re generally prescribed for adults, it’s still something to keep in mind. Just like any other medication, there are various side effects associated with ED medication. The most common one is headache. In some cases, this can be severe and even lead to neuropsychiatric issues. Fortunately, these are very rare side effects and normally only happen in patients who take high doses or are otherwise affected by the medication. There are also a variety of other side effects that have been reported including nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. These are generally mild and transient, but it’s still something to keep in mind.
Just like any other medication, it’s important to establish a regimen for taking your ED medication. This entails figuring out how you’re going to take it, when you’re going to take it, and what you’re going to do if you experience any side effects. Some men will choose to take their medications in the morning, while others will prefer to take them at night. You need to find what’s most convenient for you and stick with it so you can get the most out of your ED medication.
It’s important to understand that while these medications are safe and effective, they’re still medications and like any other medication, they can have side effects. Just remember that sometimes these side effects aren’t worth it. The choice is always up to you.
