Buying Viagra – What you should know?

Updated: Jun 28, 2022

A lot of people would search '' Where to buy viagra ? " but many do not know the right way to consume it or the right dosage which eventually lead to serious complications .

What is Viagra ?

Sildenafil from the group of Phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitors (PDE5i) – or better known as VIAGRA is a medication used to stimulate erections in men with erectile dysfunction (ED).

Sildenafil works by increasing blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation which in turn maintains an erection in men. However, it does not increase sexual desire or cure erectile dysfunction. Thus, it’s very important to know the root cause of erectile dysfunction before taking any medication.


How Bad Is Your Erection Issue ?

A scale known as ERECTION HARDNESS SCALE can be use to evaluate the severity of your conditions. There are also other method of evaluation such as SHIM Score (The Sexual Health Inventory for Men) to evaluate the severity of your condition. You may want discuss with you doctor regarding this issue and they might be able to help you to overcome this condition.



How To Know If Viagra Is For You?

If you’re concerned about your hardness, you could use this score to rate your own erection and ask your doctor for an opinion if Viagra can help.


What Are The Factors that Influence How Long Viagra Lasts For You?

  • Dosage : the amount or dose of viagra you take affects how long it stays in your system. And of course, 100mg will last longer than 25mg. However, taking a higher dose isn’t always recommended. Having a higher dose doesn’t translate to better results as it may not be safe for you.

  • Age : Viagra may last longer as you age because as you get older, your metabolism slows down. Thus, it may last longer for those more than 65 years old compared to younger males.

  • Diet : Eating a large meal before you take Viagra can keep it from being metabolized quickly thus makes it last longer as it’s metabolized along with your meal. However, drinking alcohol can decrease blood flow to your penis, making Viagra less effective or shorter-lasting.

  • Medications : certain medications like antibiotics such as erythromycin and ciprofloxacin, can interact with Viagra and affect how long it lasts.

  • Psychological state and overall health : Viagra won’t work if you aren’t sexually aroused. Sexual desire is important for Viagra to be effective since it doesn’t improve your psychological state.


Possible Side Effect Of Viagra Are:

  • Headache & Flushing (most common)

  • Dizziness

  • Upset stomach/nausea

  • Muscle pain

  • Priapism : an erection that will not go away

  • Changes in colour vision (such as having a blue colour tinge) and blurred vision

Do Not Take VIAGRA If You Are:

  • Allergic to sildenafil

  • Take medicines called “nitrates” (e.g : nitroglycerin)

  • Use street drugs called “poppers,” : like amyl nitrate, and butyl nitrate

  • Take medicines called guanylate cyclase stimulators such as Adempas (riociguat)

What Are The Other Treatment Options For Erectile Dysfunction?

Other than oral Viagra, there are few other things that you could do. Bear in mind, lifestyle modification is equally important to improve erectile dysfunction such as having a healthy diet, reducing alcohol intake, losing weight and increasing your exercise.
