| Since the introduction of Viagra to the world's market, there have been introduced many ED pills. Viagra is a term that sounds familiar to millions of men, mainly due to its reputation as a drug therapy for erectile dysfunction bringing on fewer side effects comparing to most other medications. In this article we will have a grip on effectiveness of Viagra and Cialis. To start with, both drug therapies do not bring on an erection after you take them. As PDE-5 inhibitors, they are used to relax the penile arteries to allow more blood to the genitals. Sexual stimulation is necessary for a man to be able to achieve an erection. But while each drug therapy has proven effective, none is a cure-all. They can result in problems when taken with other medications (in particular with nitrate and nitroglycerin coronary drugs), as well as cause more general side effects, including headaches. Now let's compare the two ED drug therapies. Viagra's advantages: - It takes effect in 30 minutes and even quicker on an empty stomach. - Erections have been reported to be 100% strong on a scale from 10 to 100%. - It is trusted by over 30 million all over the globe. Viagra's disadvantages: - Along with from splitting headaches, it can cause visual changes. - It lasts only for up to 4 hours. - Patients have to wait up to 2 hours for the pill to take effect. Cialis's advantages: - It is known as the weekend medication, because its effect lasts up to 36 hours - It takes effect a little faster (in approximately 15 minutes). - It is reported to bring on fewer side effects. - Both 10 mg and 20 mg doses are reported to last 36 hours. Cialis's disadvantages: - On a 10%-100% scale men say Cialis produces an 80% erection. - A lot of men complain about lower back pain. Still, everybody should keep in mind that these drugs work differently in different patients. What is suitable for one man, can be ineffective for another. Hence, before using any of the two drug therapies consult your family doctor and learn about side effects, contraindications and drug-to-drug-interactions. When using the drug therapy, do follow the prescribed dosage, as an overdose can result in health problems. |
