this subject has been discussed many times, but i always find first-person experiences useful, so i'll contribute...
i'm not a fan of C. because it lasts so long (and i was living in BKK when i tried it out!), i kept thinking, why am i doing THIS, i shd be having sex! sounds silly, but i didn't like this multi-day thing. however, some people MUCH prefer it. it does allow for spontaneity, so if yr in a relationship and using it for that purpose, makes sense.
it has been suggested that V's greatest use is among longtime married-couples where the guy is simply so bored with his wife he tabs up so he can perform his 'marital duties.' sounds depressing as hell, and doesn't apply to us! but of course, the wife shd NEVER find out he's taking the stuff, and on that matter we merge: if yr using it, best to keep it secret, even with WGs.
"Viagra" is Pfizer's trademark name for sildenafil citrate, an enzyme-inhibitor. you should NEVER take the stuff without asking your doctor first. some common side-effects are listed above. but if u are on nitrate-based medication and pop some V for kicks, it can KILL you. ask yr doc or at the very least, do some net research.
the ability to sustain an erection diminishes with age (and if u don't know that already, you're going to find out). there is NO standard dose for V.. it works on most guys but there are men who've reported NO effect. on the other side, young healthy guys who don't need it take it anyway, and end up with erections that last WAAAAY too long (any more than four hours, go see a doc pronto). you should know all this.
i don't understand why guys in their 20s take Viagra. it's not a wonder-drug. it won't make you want to fuck fire hydrants or give you a monster-sized dick. as effects vary from person to person, you need to monitor your experiences, and see how it works for YOU.
India makes the chemical, it is identical to what Pfizer will sell u. thus u may find counterfeit V, which i advise against. better to go with a known INDIAN brand-name, the best known is Kamagra, others include Veetab, Seagra and i heard of one called "Penagra" buit have never seen it. these are sold mostly in 4-tablet blister-packs. there is Chinese-made V and i once found a pack behind a refrigerator in a hotel room in Phnom Penh. there was no English-writing but the 4-pack of blue lozenges was unmistakeable. i used it and it worked fine.
the first time i tried it was with prescrip Pfizer V: a friend was visiting HK in 2001 and had been prescribed nitrates, so cdn't take it. he passed it to me and said, split one tab into quarters and take ONE. i thought: sure, i'm taking a quarter of a pill, it expired two years ago...what's THAT gonna do?? well, i soon found out! it's dramatic.
for a long time i was at 25mg (preferred the 50mg Veetabs which were easy to slice in half with a single-edge razorblade). then i got to where i needed a bit more. so i was at 37.5mg for awhile, but i wasn't precise (i have bitten off a chunk of a V tablet, not a best practice!). now 50mg works fine for me. the desensitizing effect is real, you have to work your way through it. with the right stimulation, not a prob.
nowadaya, 50 mg is a normal dosage. if i've been active more than usual, i will take 75mg. this is a high dose for me and does make the pesky thing slightly bigger (not my imagination: girls have commented, and sometimes COMPLAINED, about it). it just allows more blood to flow. after orgasm, you may detumesce more slowly, but yr cock should turn back into the worm it was. later, you may find yourself with another erection a few hours later, so multiple pops with the same or different girls are certainly possible.
India used to sell the raw chemicals until Pfizer stopped them, which upset Italian pharmacists. these guys would custom-make tablets for their clients: if 80mg was the desired dose, they would make the pills FOR THAT MAN. you've gotta love that level of care and craftsmanship.
so yes, the Indian stuff is real (and their version of Cialis is called "Apcalis"), but u want to buy an Indian brand. most countries have signed treaties with the US and can't sell it openly. Cambodia has not signed any such treaty so u can buy this stuff legally at pharmacies there (look for a clean, air-conditioned place and check expiry dates). last week ii bought Kamagra at US$3 per four-pack, as it had the longest expiry date. i keep it in the fridge, what i'm currently using expired in January but still works great.
do yr homework. evaluate yr needs. my personal feeling is you should take the minimum dose that works for you, don't start with more than 25mg and don't have any "pressure to perform" in yr first attempt. you should find erection easier to attain and maintain. that's all it does. all yr turn-ons/turn-offs will remain. you're still you.
i call it "my little blue friend" as i find it a confidence-bosster. i know i'll sustain an erection so i can enjoy sex more, and as hard cocks turn women on, she had more fun too. i don't use V EVERY time i have an encounter, but if intercourse is likely, i generally tab up. that said, know your dosage--don't think you can take some more and have it work right away. it takes awhile to work, so determine yr dose and don't take it more than once every 24 hours. again, i'm NOT A DOCTOR and am merely relating my personal experience. it is not a substance to be used thoughtlessly, or "my pal says 100mg makes him last all night so i'll do it too!" be an adult, because this is an adult drug for adults at play.
