4	ED	Facial flushing; Temporary vision changes similar as if a bright light was shined in your face and you are seeing stars, especially after drinking alcohol; red eyes; stuffy nose	Gives you a rock hard penis. Best taken on an empty stomach and with no alcohol. Works in 15 minutes and last for a couple of hours. Takes longer to achieve orgasms and the orgasms are alot less intense and alot less satisfying. Able to get it up right away and have another orgasms. Does not work when drinking lots of alcohol or after a large meal.	M	52	5 years 50 MG 1X W		8/21/2010
5	ed for several years	Some stuffiness and heart burn !!	Works great if not taken on full "greasy food" stomach. Usually work up to 12 hours on me . Very reliable hard erections	M	64	3 years 50 1X D		7/24/2010
4	Performance Anxiety & Recreational	Nasal congestion.	As a swinger I've used Viagra both recreationally and for performance anxiety. I have no problems when with my wife alone, so I use 25mg every few weeks or so just for fun. It creates firmer erections, but also de-sensitizes the sex ever-so-slightly so I last longer. Plus, I'm hard again moments after climax. As for swinging with other partners, I definitely have performance anxiety, and it has worked - but only about half the time. The dosage doesn't seem to matter. I will admit that on those occasions where it didn't seem to work, I was either drinking, or had just eaten, or had no interest in the lady in question. When none of those were the case, it worked wonders, though. Nice, firm erections, with a slight desensitization, and very little down-time.	M	30	2 months 25-100mg 1X AN		7/20/2010
4	Erectile Dysfunction	Vision disturbance (bright lights take on a blue tinge and lots of psychedelic tracers), headache, sinus congestion, indigestion, flushing	Side effects seem to be correlated with dosage. For me, 25mg seems to work OK and 50mg WILL give results (YMMV). I found I had to take Viagra on an empty stomach and about one hour before sex...sometimes it would kick-in after 15 minutes. Works well and it's good for about 4 hours. Side effects are a pain, but the sex is great and worth it.	M	35	4 years 25-100mg 1X AN		7/13/2010
5	slight ED	No real side effects	I had problems achieving erections with a new girlfriend and so I tried Viagra. I was not disappointed!! Had a nice erection and was able to have intercourse twice in one evening and maybe could have tried a third time. She was really satisfied and was overwhelmed with our lovemaking. It was a real ego booster!! This drug is the greatest thing ever made for men!!!	M	56	2 months 100 1X W		6/27/2010
5	recreational use	occasionally, my vision was a bit blurring. but this was nothing major. i had read this was a side effect, and was prepared for it, and it was nothing major. very mild, actually	i only use this product recreationally, (about once a month for the last year), and it has worked great every time. i've never had ED and still have no problems, but i wanted to try to see if it works. man does it even. i take a 100mg dose, but i prob only need 50mg. this stuff gets me so rock hard, it's amazing. i use it because it allows me to do positions that are more pleasurable to my partner, but ones that don't let me get a ton of stimulation so i wouldn't otherwise be as hard. however, viagra makes it effortless and enjoyable. it literally feels like steel sometimes, and helps me to concentrate on my partner and be a because partner in bed to her	M	26	1 years 100 1X M		6/5/2010
5	ED	Flushing	Rock hard dick that stays with you. Like they say, you need stimulation to get a hard on, but once it's hard, it's gonna stay hard. I tried the Cialis and it worked OK, but never seemed to run the flag all the way up the pole. With Viagra I know I can count on a full firm 8" of dick when I need it. And normally I will wake in the with a strong case of morning wood just in time to start the day off right. I normally take 50 mg on light meal, not greasy foods, and light amount of drinking for best results. Can only afford to use couple of time per week, so can't wait until the patent runs out and the price drops.	M	55	6 months 50 mg 1X D		5/7/2010
4	Erectile Disfunction	Very conjested about 20 minutes after taking the drug, occational blurred vision the next day.	Worked vERY WELL..kept my missus smiling again..gave me the erections I had never been able to achieve and it wasn't prescribed for that ! Talk about a great side effect!	M	55	2 years 50mg 1X AN		4/19/2010
4	Depression lead to no sex drive	flushed feeling, rapid heart beat.	Wow i feel like a idiot because i looked over the comments before i submitted this and everyone is so much older than me, The doctor told me i would probably not be having an ED problem if not for my severe depression, but this drug works, i chew mine and swallow drink 2 bottles of water and just think about sex and BAM, hard as a freaking rock....My wife approves of this drug also..	M	31	6 months 50mg 1X D		4/8/2010
3	ED after prostate surgery	Terrible headaches and flushing. One time no effects and had vision problems leading to new glasses prescription. Last time was fine.		M	57	2 years 100 1X AN		4/3/2010
5	ed	none	WOW, felt like an 18 year old again, became hard enough to drive a nail through a peice of wood, I and my my wife are very satisfied...........	M	53	50mg 1X D		4/2/2010
5	Sometimes go soft	Bad Headache... I don't recommend taking after a few beers I get bad heartburn if I do	Nothing but praise for this drug.	M	54	1 years 50 MG 1X W		3/25/2010 Email
5	Slight ED	Very slight stuffy nose. Not a problem at all.	Dating after being in a near sexless marriage for about 15 yrs I was surprised to find my hards ons didn't work the same as when I was in my 30's. If I did get hard there were a lot of problems. It didn't stay hard or I came in a heart beat. I had no idea what was happening. So after reading the reviews here I got a 100 mg tablet, broke it in half, then broke it in half again. So maybe 20-25 mgs. I took it on an empty stomach (3-4hrs empty) but got really hungry so I ate a very light snack about 45 min after taking. Had a date coming over so about an hour after taking I jumped in the shower and began to notice the effects. The hang was heaver, fuller. Long story short. 20 mgs worked great. It really was like being 21 again. And not having to worry about how the erection was going to preform freed me up to just concentrate on my girlfriend. She loved it! I lasted a very long time and just basicly rocked it. Highly recommend for those trying to get back in the swing of things.	M	48	1 days 25mg 1X D		3/23/2010
4	Anti depressant induced ED	Some facial flushing & nasal congestion. Spontaneous errections the following day.	Taking to counteract the ED caused by Prozac. My doc put me on 50 mg. It did the trick but but gave me too much flushing and headache. I split the pills and now use a 25mg dose. It works just as well but without the headache. This is a powerful medication and I would advise trying the smallest dose first. If taken on an empty stomach it works very quickly. Now I'm taking an Indian generic (Silagra) and it works the same.	M	45	3 months		1/13/2010
5	Curiousity	Flushed face about an hour after taking but it went away, hazy vision round bright lights, mild headache 4 hours after taking.	I took a 100mg pill out of curiousity.... I dont have ED but even so, I noticed that it really made a difference in hardness and for how long i lasted. I could have gone again right after but she had to leave. I got frquent erections through the night, it was like being 16 again!	M	30	1 days		1/5/2010
4	Couldn't get erection.	I usually get a headache and a stuffy nose with watery eyes. The last time I took it I got an allergic reaction that seemed like a full blown cold that came on within 30 minutes after I took it and lasted several days.	It works. I wish they could get rid of the side effects. I have been taking it about once per month for five years.	M	54			1/5/2010
5	ed	mild flushing		M	56	2 years		12/28/2009
3	ED	Extreme heartburn, headache, stuffed up nose on 50mg. Will not take again,bummer. Did give me a real boner.	Had no side effects with Cialis but can't afford it.	M	71	2 days		11/30/2009
4	Unreliable, inadequate erections.	No negative side effects.	My erection problems are caused by vascular disease and began before I turned 30. The libido's strong as ever. I've been using these drugs for several years - started with Cialis and Levitra with good results. I've switched to Viagra now because I can get the generic version online at a very reasonable price. The generic I use is Caverta which is made in India by Ranbaxy a reputable company that produces 95% of the FDA-Approved generics that we consume in USA. As long as the libido holds up I intend to use this medication to assist in attaining some kind of erection. (I also keep a supply of prescription Viagra for comparrison). Caution: don't order "generic" Caverta get real Caverta...	M	69	10 months		11/21/2009 Email
1	To improve quality of erection	I have PE, so I use Ejaculation delay drugs (dapoxotine and tramadol). However, these soften my erection so this time I took viagra as well. The erection was better but there was two side effects: 1. The ED effect of the other drugs was lost. I came within a minute. So all a bit pointless really. 2. Hideous hangover symptoms the next day. Nausea, vomiting, headache, dry mouth. Lasted until early/mid afternoon. Horrible.		M	43	1 days		11/9/2009
3	erectile dysfunction	Right eye turned red. A bleed? What's it doing to the blood vessles in my brain if it can burst the ones in my eye? Coupled with the headache and nausea, really detracts from the pleasure of sex.	Very powerful drug. I'm a big, healthy 54 y.o.male, and 25mg. knocks me around like hell.	M	54	4 years		10/25/2009 Email
5	ed	stuffy nose that afrin clears up, sometimes back pain	I've tried viagra (100 mg split 4 times) for about 1 year and it works great. my wife was leary of me taking it due to the rare side effects, but after taking it the first time she prefers it for me every time. I found that taking it 1 to 2 hrs. before works best but even as little as 20 mins. before works well too. I tried levitra and it doesn't even compare, havn't tried cialis think I'll stick to the V, no pun intended.	M	42	1 days		9/30/2009
5	problems having a firm erection	Slight nasal congestion and facial flushing, no big deal at all	This really is a wonder drug. Took 100mg test pill and within 15 mins got a really hard firm erection. I was able to do things that I was never able to do before. Really satisfying. I was having premature ejaculation before and with viagra I was able to stay much longer than usual.	M	49	1 days		9/16/2009
2	Performance anxiety big time.	I'm 39 years old, gym-fit, without any pre-existing medical problems. Within 1 hour of taking a 50mg pill, I had a splitting headache that lasted all night. No amount of excedrin could get rid of it. My heart was racing, my breathing so heavy, and my head so hot I thought I was going to have a heart attach or a stroke. I felt like I had a highly-pressurized gas bubble at my center of my upper chest. On top of all this, I was nauseous. Not knowing the side effects of Viagra, I thought it was food poisoning and tried to induce some vomiting hoping that these symptoms would go away but they did not. I went home and rode out the nightmare. Some symptoms did linger mildly through the next day and felt like a bad hangover.	But Viagra did work. It worked very very well. Just thinking about the possibility of having sex with my date gave me the biggest, hardest wood I've had in a long time. But it happened in all the wrong places. I had to actively think about horrible, ugly things to distract myself but it was nearly impossible to lose the erection once the thought of sex had entered my mind. I had a tent pole for most of the night. I felt like I was in highschool. Even as the horrible side-effects began to completely take over the date, the erection was still there because I still desperately wanted to "get some." However, all the painful side effects of Viagra became too overwhelming, I had to end the date thinking I had food poisoning. Everyone around me noticed something was wrong with me even though I tried my best to hide it. It wasn't until I googled all my symptoms that "Viagra" popped out as the culprit. I did not know about these symptoms or that you shouldn't take it with alcohol or food because that pill was given to me by a friend to "try before you buy." (I know I know). I guess I'm that small group of men who can't take this miracle drug. But it works dammit. And the erection does go away when you're no longer horny, (as in when I thought I was going to die.) It really works. Please just make all that other horrible stuff go away!!!!	M	39	1 days		8/25/2009
3	ED	bothersome nasal congestion, flushing, red eyes, blue vision, insomnia?	~10 years ago it worked great at 25mg, now it only gets me to 80% at 100mg.	M	68	10 years		8/14/2009
1	longer lasting erection	I experienced the full works. taken on an empty stomach/no alcohol. Slight headache and pulsating temples withing 15 minutes. Very brief erection with no feeling what so ever during intercourse. Felt fine for the next 4 hours, after which I really started to feel the effect of the drug. facial flushing, increased heartrate, splitting headache along with severe teethache (top set of teeth) nasal congestion, abnormal gagging when trying to be sick. went hot and cold like i had the flu, shivering when hot, abnormal sweating, dizziness, light headed - all lasting for approximately 3 hours until i fell asleep. next day, sore throat, slight headache, still got the jitters.	Can honestly say that i will not be taking this form of medicine ever again and wouldnt recommend it to anyone.	M	22	1 days		8/13/2009
5	ED	Get slightly nauseated immediately after climax, but is short lasting. Still worth the effort.	I have used 50 mg capsules for many months and only take it when I know for sure we are going to have sex (63 y.o.), usually about 3 days a week. Viagra cost too much to buy locally. I tried Canada, still too much. I found Viagra Capsules in INDIA, 96 - 50 mg capsules for $62. Wow! Yes, I've used it for many months and ROCK HARD almost every time. It doesn't work well when you don't feel good. Sexy foreplay is very important.	M		6 months		8/12/2009
5	Performance anxiety	mild flushing and chubby in grocery store	I have performance anxiety and perhaps an arousal disorder but no problem with erections during masturbation or when I have to pee in the morning. I take periodically to help with bouts of anxiety. Don't need more than 25mg, more than that gives me a steel rod that won't cum. I split 100mg into 4 doses, not exact but can't afford it otherwise.	M	35	6 years		7/23/2009
3	ED due to blood pressure meds	Took 50mg on an empty stomach first thing in the morning and my face got so hot and red I thought it would catch fire. Got a wicked headache after that that lasted the whole day (and maybe part of the next). I've since figured out that taking acetaminophen or ibuprofen, or a combo drug like Excedrin (acetaminophen, aspirin and caffeine) along with the Viagra helps. Have switched to half of a 50mg pill and that seems to be fairly effective.	Definitely found (on my own) what others here have reported -- taking on anything other than an empty stomach, 25mg doesn't do a lot. Need to stick with taking 25mg on an empty stomach and see how that goes.	M	40	2 weeks		7/17/2009
4	recreational	minor headache the following day. Minor gastric distress (mild constipation)	"test drove" Viagra and Cialis back to back for comparative purposes (allowed ample time to pass in between, 3-4 days) and found that for me personally, Viagra was much more effective, it quickly produced a very strong, powerful erection that lasted well over three hours and it had very minimal side effects compared to Cialis- I was very disappointed in Cialis because it did not produce an erection anywhere near as strong and powerful as the Viagra and the side effects of Cialis were almost dibilitating. Myonly complaint about Viagra is, it takes too long too climax-over three hours in my case! Not a bad problem to have if you're a guy but you can definitely wear out your partner, and yourself!	M		1 days		7/7/2009
3	To enhance sex	Besides the usual headache and heartburn, I experience sores on the top and side of my tongue. They are very uncomfortable and look gross but go away in about a week. I've read the online responses but no one has mentioned this occurrance. Has anyone else experience this?		M	59	1 years		7/6/2009
4	Ensure erection	Rapid heartbeat, stuffy nose, flush face. Occasional ED due to performance anxiety. No problem getting erection during masterbation. Very rapid heart beat incidence of which seems to increase if I drink alcohol. Rapid heart beat lasts anywhere from 5 minutes to several hours.	To stop the rapid heat beat I use a deep breathing technique wherein I sit on the toilet (I use the bathroom because its a quiet calm place and creates a sitting position that seems to work best) lean my upper body slightly forward and take a deep (but not too deep) breath, pause and slowly exhale. The rapid heart beat stops just as I start to relase my breath. This technique works EVERYTIME but will sometimes not work for several hours.	M	48	6 months		7/4/2009 Email
5	Pulmonary Hypertension,	Possibly mild peripheral hypotension, otherwise none.	This is a lifesaving drug. It really slows down a bad killer disease, and in my experience, there was sizeable amount of reversal. I take 150 mg/day, divided in three doses. Now to get treated for the rare lung disease with no known treatment that initiated the pulmonary hypertension in the first place.	F	60	2 years		6/30/2009 Email
3	ED	Sometimes: backache for up to 48 hours, stuffiness, headache. Always: red eyes, flushing heat.	It's usually worth risking the side effects.	M	55	2 years		6/22/2009
5	To add extra grain to the wood	During working period, felt sort of stoned, somewhat euphoric and studley. After wear-off ... a little head-throb ... wished it would go away, eventually did. Light was bright and kinda hazy.	Started with 25mg, fine good and woody, graduated to 50mg ... terrific stonewood, lasted for hours, poked around quite a bit and maintained a Giant. I did not know about empty stomach, the day i took it on a somewhat full stomach it was delayed and I couldn't figure it out. After about 2 hours, I started getting movement, a growth spurt and a jolly roger. Next time NO FOOD!	M	50	2 months		6/4/2009
5	Having erectile problems	Severe heartburn. I do normally suffer with heartburn, but it was extremely bad the following day. I plan to take a lower dose and see if the heartburn subsides, I'll post again to let you all know how I got on. Also had slight bluish tint to vision in bright light, and a dry mouth. But would reccommend it's use and will continue to use it.		M	40	1 days		5/5/2009
2	maintaining erect state	massive -- hugely pressurised -- headache, tinted vision	not worth the headache for a quick bottom	M	20	2 times		4/26/2009
5	stamina	flushing,headache, heartburn 1x	you have got to take it on an empty stomach, having a belly full of food and liquor is a waste of the pill. Best effect is the morning after. It is still in your system and your ready to go again with no new dosage.	M	44	2 years		4/16/2009
5	ED	Face flushing during 1st hour; headache after 4 hours	I have been using Viagra for 2 years, hitherto with mixed results. However, it is only recently that I started using it correctly. Until about 2 months ago I was blissfully unaware that it should be taken on an empty stomach!! The reason for some uninspiring performances in the past can be directly traced back to having a full stomach. Am now getting incredible results with 1/2 50mg tablet taken 1 hour before sex. My erections are rock hard, long-lasting, and can be induced with very little hand or mouth stimulation. I have a young lover, half my age, and we regularly engage in 2 to 4 hours of absolutely non-stop sex. I can also have an orgasm and NOT lose the erection. Paradise! Multiple orgasms for men are NOT a myth, and I now regularly have 2 or 3 per sex session. Great product. Just wish I'd read the instructions properly 2 years ago!!	M	62	2 years		4/14/2009
5	ED	Facial Flushing and around the ears, Rapid heart beat. Slight loss of concentration and sometimes difficult to focus.	omg! its the bomb! It started working within 14mins at which time I was rushing all over my body and especially in my face and around the ears. I had a rapid heart beat too but that only lasted for about 5 mins once I started to relax. Managed multiple orgasms in a 3 hour session. I split a 50mg tablet into 2 and took 25mg. an hour later I took the other 25mg but I think I will stick to 25mg for now as it seemed better than when I took 50mg.	M	32	1 days		4/13/2009
4	difficulty maintaining erection	stuffy nose, flushing, for me the worst was fairly severe heartburn	good, firm erection - took some of the anxiety away over losing some of the erection before penetration. Worth the price, but I also felt some reduction in sensation upon orgasm.	M	49	2 months		4/6/2009
4	ED	First ever trial of half 50mg tablet. Heart started pounding after 1hr, 2hrs later got stuffy nose. No other obvious effects. Had good strong erection which softened after climax. See comments.	My problem may not be as severe as others. We like a lot of foreplay, at least 1.5hr+ and especially oral, and I usually have no problem getting an erection, but lately this would soften as penetration was later attempted. Very frustrating for both. This was my first ever trial. I got my prescription from Lloyds on line...very very expensive but didn't want to risk some illegal copy drug. After reading here about previous reports and advice I cut my first 50mg tablet in half, in case side effects were severe, with the intention of taking the other half later if no effect. I ignored advice about taking on empty stomach, because we usually have sex after an evening meal, with some beer or wine.( I did however only have a small beer this time knowing it could nullify effect). Knowing our routine, I took half a 50mg tablet 20 min after chinese meal, which would hopefully kick in about 1.5hr later. Sure enough, after this time and with already a good erection after oral, I felt a stron	M	63	1 days		3/1/2009
3	better perfomance	terrible headache, strange vision occured	It was my first time taking a pill, directly a 100mg one. Normally i have an orgasmn pretty quick. Thanks too viagra i could try today more than 10 different positions, at the end i was scared i would not get an orgasm at all but as soon i got it, it was great. 5 hours later... my head is about to explode!	M	18	1 days		2/23/2009
5	problems maintaining an erection	a little headache, fast heart beats, might cause a high blood pressure. fall asleep without you feel.	when I first started viagra, I had to use all of the 100 MG at once in order to maintain good errection. after I had used it for almost 6 years, I started to feel that the 100 MG is somehow hard on me caused a high blood pressure and made me fell asleep without I felt so, I started to split the 100 mg into four pieces and started to use 1/4 of a 100MG. getting a great result . the product is safe as long as you use a very low dose of it	M	50	7 years		2/17/2009
4	ed	Headache first time on 25 mg. Not since but do get stuffy nose.	Wife thinks I took 25 years off my life. This eliminated performance anxiety that was making me avoid sex. We have much more frequent sex knowing I will not disappoint. Another benefit - seem to be able to keep erection even after ejaculation.	M	59	6 months		1/27/2009
4	Yes	It was great	Thanks for letting me share	M	58	3 days		1/26/2009
2	problems maintaining an erection	Flushing around temples eyes and ears, slight heart palpitation although that has improved, a general uncomfortable feeling psychologically because you are so aware of these effects. The worst is the headache - comes about 4 hours after taking the pill (50g) - I took some paracetamol which helped for two hours but then was woken up by more head pain and couldnt get back to sleep - as if I had taken speed. Next morning head still a bit heavy although bearable. I felt a bit lethargic but once I got outside I was ok- couldnt drink coffee. Two days later the side effect of the headache is still continuing a bit although has waned.	It gives a great erection and that is so important - am a single gay man and if you cant get a hardon you might as well not bother. I have taken it probably 6 or 7 times now over a period of 2 years - would really like to find something I can take on a regular weekly basis that isnt going to destroy my eyes, or give me this ghastly splitting headache. I'm very concerned about these side effects as I love what the drug does to me performance wise and want to continue but feel scared particularly reading these other reports that ring so true.

5	Performance anxiety, fatigue	Experienced the facial flush after a few minutes on 25mg dose. Prepared for congestion and headache having read previous side effect evidence but never actually experienced these symptoms. Increased confidence and hard on demand for up to 24 hours.	Side effects of 25mg doser not too invasive or long lasting. Does what it says it does!	M	52	3 days		8/21/2008
4	BP Drug induced ED/Impotence	At the 100mg dose stuffy nose, flushed face. At 50mg the same but not often. I've had the Blue Tinge a few times. Nasua once in a blue moon and also heartburn.	Starts to work in about 20 minutes. I then have nocturnal and even a morning erection. *Note requires sexual stimulation to work.	M	49	4 years		8/19/2008 Email
5	ED caused by smoking	Zero	I began taking cialis about 3 months ago. I came upon this site beforehand and because of that never experienced any of the side effects (so far). I took a 20mg pill and cut it into 8 pieces, took one everyday (2.5mg), very decent results. I was impressed. I know for a fact my ED is caused by smoking. I have since quit smoking and noticed a big difference in my ability to acheive and maintain an erection on my own, but I will continue with this drug because it is amazing. I just recently got a new order of cialis and I cut those into 5mg pieces, which I take once daily, and let me tell you, the wife is happy and so am I. More than anything, and I cannot stress this enough, if you smoke, QUIT!!! My second order was generic cialis (tadalafil) and I couldn't be happier. I took quite a bit of time choosing a company to order from, and I will be a customer as long as I'm using cialis. Do your homework, be smart, experiment, and be patient and you will get the results you are looking	M	41	3 months		7/19/2008 Email
4	counteract ed due to antidepressant	flushing, stuffy nose, indigestion	100mg works well, 50mg doesn't work at all.	M	43	2 years		6/17/2008
3	ed	Tachycardia after taking Viagra. 97-107 when in supine position or resting heart rate 25 minutes after taking 50 mg. My heart rate was almost a 911 call, staying at 98- 107 for almost five hours without dropping . I am in great shape and at my normal maxed out heart rate is around 140 after running 2=5 miles. my resting hr is around 64-70. Needless to state, I stayed awake after taking dose at twenty seven hundred hour until heart rate finally dropped to 83 bpm around five hours later. I took 50 mg Benadryl, thinking possibly a reaction. However, when I hit this website and read the main side effects, I knew to wait it out with 911 being called by wife if hr increased to 110. What is in this med to cause this. I never had Dyspnea, Pain in chest, lightheaded, just a racing HR. I stayed in bed the entire night without a happy ending. Should be a black box warning on possible Heart Rate jump. I am not on anti-hypertension meds, never have had a MI, liver is great, 6.2 185		M	47	1 times		6/11/2008
4	Iffy erections	Flushed face, bloodshot eyes (like i was stoned), slight nasal congestion, mild palpitations, mild heartburn, sensitivity to light	Im using viagra on occasion now after coming off of a heavy anabolic steroid cycle. Just waiting for my natural hormones to catch up and in the mean time, the erection strength needed a little rigidty and oomph. I notice its effects 30 to 45 minutes after taking a dose of 50 mg. Mild palpitations kick in and my eyes look kinda red like im stoned, but the boners are insane! Not only was i rock hard, but i managed to stay hard after climax, enabling my wife to "keep on going". I would say that the side effects do dissipate over time, except for the bloodshot eyes. that side effect seems to stick around regardless of frequency of use. Visine helps. Ive used Yohimbe, ginseng, ginkgo biloba, Arginine etc in the past but this certainly keeps you harder, longer. Sometimes 50 mgs is a bit much. I can sometimes get a similar effect at 25. but 50 is guaranteed.	M	29	4 months		6/4/2008 Email
5	ED	mild flushing(red-faced),mild headache sometimes	I had been taking Letvitra which worked but I couldn't handle the side effects. Viagra works the best for me with only minimal side effects. I only take half the recommended dosage & notice the effects in less than 30 minutes. I have stronger, more intense orgasms which I haven't had since my teens. This is the best thing for ED I've found & Cialis scares me with some of the severe side effects reported. I have used Viagra for 2 yrs. without any problems & will continue to do so. Viva Viagra!	M	47	2 years		5/6/2008
2	Diabetic for 32yrs	No side effects whasoever	First time taking viagra & found that it had no effect whatever.tho I do get an erection I sometimes dont get hard enough to insert my penis to tight g/friend.Took 50gm and had intercourse and when i tried to get erect again it just didnt work so i took a further 50gm and found no effect whatever just that i couldnt cum for ages	M	60	1 days		4/8/2008
5	fun	Redfaced, light headed.	Best erection I have ever had. It just didnt want to go down. Quicker recoup time. Three or four orgasms are possible.	M	41			2/27/2008
2	firm it up	headache, flushing, heart palpitations, general ill feeling lasting a day	hardest it's been in 10 years, therefore gave it a 2. However, definitely not worth the side-effects. Trying the other 2 (L and C) to compare.	M	43	2 times		2/25/2008
5	improve erection quality	Stuffy nose and sometimes mild heartburn.	Figure out the lowest dose that will work for you. By the bigger pills and chop them up (it's cheaper). I found that I could get noticeable and welcome results with as little as 12.5mg (1/8 of a 100mg tablet) but it wasn't foolproof at that dose. At 25mg I don't know why I'd ever take more but everyone is different. Figure out what works for you.	M	50	3 years		2/22/2008
5	ED due to high BP and Cholesterol	None significant. Early on, had slight stuffy nose and slight headache, but not in the last year.	Have tried all three: V, L & C. Viagra is my choice--cut 100mg tab into 4ths and on empty stomach, can set the clock after 45 minutes. L works equally well but can not easily cut 20mg tabs into 4ths. C never did anything for me except give me a 36 hr nuisance headache and stuffy nose. Have had equal success with generic versions of V.	M	64	3 years		1/27/2008
3	ED	Facial Flushing		M	58	5 days		1/19/2008
4	moderate E.D.	nasal congestion, some heart burn, mild headache but all those side effects can be countered with o.t.c. meds. I have noticed that if you take this drug more often, the side effects get less.	Viagra (or it's generic counterparts) is not a miracle cure. You do need to be sexually aroused to get it working. In my case as a depression patient, the anxiety is sometimes still too much for Viagra to deal with, but once you are aroused it sure does the job! For me 50mg still works after 12 to 15 hours. Taking it on an empty stomach enhances the effect.	M	53	6 years		1/5/2008
4	Occasional impotence	Dull headache, facial flushing, light headedness, stuffed up sinuses, red face and eyes, puffy feeling in face. Next morning my eyes are usually red like I'm hung over, but feel fine.	I have had great success with viagra. Able to sustain an erection for 3 or 4 hours, then wake up with a woody in the morning that lasts 2 or 3 hours with stimulation. Get your woman involved, educate her on your condition, and she'll enjoy sex with u a lot more. I never have had a problem climaxing while using it.	M	41	2 years		1/1/2008
1	Crestor reduced drive	Very minimal effect at any mg, some temporary vision changes but luckily not the potential permanent blindness that is being reported now, only used this med a few times including the 100mg version, too high risk for me.	Since it doesn't work for me much if any and with the blindness thing can happen later even after taking the med several times without any issues I have chosen to discontinue it, just not worth going blind, I am also stopping the Crestor med to see if my old reliable drive comes back, was good until 2yrs ago when started the statin drug.	M	51	1 years		11/13/2007
4	Occasional ed and curious about it	After fourth time taking approx. 50mg Kamagra, my left eye was blood red on one side (this morning). I just looked in the mirror and I couldn't believe it! I am worried about how long it will last and how I will explain to my wife who doesn't know I have taken this. I will be wearing shades. This has scared me a lot. No problem with vision. I would like to know when this will go away? Anyone had a similar side-effect? PLEASE EMAIL ME.	Kamagra worked really well apart from that. I never really had a problem before, just the odd time when I probably had too much to drink... I was curious to see what it would do. It gives me a bigger stiffy but doesn't prelong orgasm. I get harder, quicker. Psychologicaly it makes me hornier because of the increased blood flow. Even the next day I feel the effects and need to masturbate, so it definitely works for me. I have only taken it 4 times by chewing off bits of 2x100mg pills. I would take it again, but not if my eyes 'bleed'. I guess I will have to make some excuse about poking my eye in the night. Apart from that eye, I have had no other side effects at all. Sheesh!	M	59	4 days		11/9/2007 Email
1	Mild ED	Blue/yellow tint to vision as well as heavy trails from lights. Also a feeling of being high and late having a headache and the next day I was really stuffy in an unnatural feeling way. I felt like I had a slight hangover the next day and when I stood up a few times got a little lightheaded to the point where I sat down just incase I fell.	I took 1 100mg pill. I will never take it again...levitra worked much better with mild stuffyness and headache. Not worth the risk to your vision.	M	29	1 days		10/12/2007
5	problems maintaining an erection	The first time there was headache and extreme flushing of the face. Now just a mild headache.	WOW! It was amazing! It was like being 18 again. Bang several out before the night was through. Almost felt giddy and embarrassed to tell my doctor about my reaction. Definitely worth the price. BTW Ive also tried the 'generic' sidenafil and had similar results. Think i will stay with my prescription viagra for now.	M	38	2 months		10/9/2007
3	To better hold an erection	Worked well. Splitting headache 4 hours later when I woke up. Very congested too.		M	60	1 days		10/2/2007
3	ed	major back pains.. upper back, shoulders and neck were in severe pain for the entire night..	works well with erection..	M	26	1 times		9/30/2007
3	Better erections	Headache, flushing, visual disturbances	Found 100mg Viagra to work well on some occasions, but not on others. Within 30 minutes of taking it, I often had a very hard erection, which lasted around an hour. Sometimes my penis just didn't get hard though.	M	40	1 years		9/20/2007
5	I have multiple sclerosis	I always wake up with a headache after taking viagra at night. I have also been experiencing a severe ache of the bones/joints which may or may not be related.	In regards to helping with erections, the product works like a charm. I get results in 20 minutes after taking the medication. My wife jokes about it, but certainly enjoys the results.	M	44	6 months		8/25/2007 Email
2	ED	drug did not work at all.		M	63	3 months		8/21/2007
1	ED	Horrible heart palpitations started about 36 hours after taking and lasted about 36 more hours. Heart felt like it was skipping a beat. Felt nervous inside.	Great erection, but not worth the side effect. Levitra works just as well, but no health problems after taking.	M	42	3 days		7/18/2007
5	Consistency of performance	Headaches at the beginning (not sharp pain, but more like pressure in back of head), hot around the ears, even sweating the first time... Symptoms subsided other times.	Before taking VG, I had occasional loss of performance after prolonged and increased frequency of sex. I didn't realize I needed a performance booster until I met my new girl friend... I first tried a 100mg pill (on an empty stomach about two hours before activity) and I probably had the highest performing sex of my life (or equal to when I was in my twenties). The session lasted past an hour, without any loss of hardness. It takes time for me to come, and my girlfriend gets really wet, so it doesn't help, but I was able to stay hard and ejaculate after she had achieved orgasm a couple of times. Definitely worked for me!	M	52	2 weeks		7/3/2007
1	ED	I have lost over half my sight in one eye. The "four hour erection" is not the worst possible side effect. Blindness is ... and does happen. Happened during first week of use.		M	58	7 days		7/3/2007
2	ED	Several hours after taking it I have a headache that takes me off my feet. I finally took my blood pressure and found a 145/95 reading. I take a low dose lisinopril for BP, and it takes a double dose to get my BP back to a bearable level.	I'll bet the profits from this Rx that if those complaining of headaches as a side effect took their BP they would find the exact same results. A report of dangerous increases in BP would be more accurate and harder to blow off than simple reports of headaches.	M	53	7 days		6/28/2007
5	Hard Time Maintaining an Erection	None	Great product! I have enjoyed more intimate moments with my wife lately. If you are in the same boat as I am (having a hard time maintaining an erection), give Viagra a chance.	M	48	6 months		6/5/2007
5	due to side effect from effexor xr	none	i am on 150mg daily of effexor xr for anxiety, but even with that and 5-6 pints of beer plus a few shots, viagra turns me into a pubecent boy again , involuntary errections at the mere sight of an attractive woman.	M	30	14 days		6/2/2007
1	Mild ED	none	Tried Viagra about 10 or so times and almost never had a result. I think I vaguely remember once but obviously it wasn't enough to remember. Anyway, what's the use in taking something if it loses it's effects while consuming alcohol? Let's face it, theres nothing worse than getting a buzz and hooking up just to be disappointed. I have since quit using Viagra and switched to Cialis. It costs roughly 3x more but it performs about 1000% more. I have only needed it 3 times over a year period and it leaves me feeling 18 all over again for months.	M	35	1 years		5/29/2007
5	ED	Flushed & warm face	For starters, I'm a 2-pack/day smoker & drink about 5-6 beers a night. I started taking it ( 50mg.) about 5 years ago cause I was curious. Worked great. Was like being 13 years old again & having to hold my books in front of my crotch so nobody could see "it". Back then I required little or no stimulation, now I require a little stimulation but not much. When I finally went on prescription I asked for 100mg tabs because my HMO only allowed 4 doses (any size) per month. I break/bite them into approximately 25mg doses which prove to be as effective as 50mg sample doses. I read about others having side effects like numbness & reduced feeling but I attribute that to the "harder member = more vigious action" effect. One thing to keep in mind; this drug has the capability to turn you into a scumbag instantly. When you're on this stuff you're "loaded for bear" sort of speak so keep your "moral compass" turned on for lack of a better phrase.	M	45	5 years		5/21/2007
1	For fun, and to experiment	Absolutly no erection. I waited and waited for somthing to happen. But very sleepless and interupted sleep all night. Upset blader or Prostate. Lathargic, hard time getting up to do any work, stuffy nose, light head ache. Basicaly I just feel like crap, and drugged. I will never try this stuff again.	I am a very health driven 42 year old with absolutly no problem getting a natural erection. This did nothing at all. I was hopeing for some un-stoppable erection to impress my wife with.	M	42	2 days		4/27/2007
4	soft	Facial and ear flushing, red ears lasted for hours, Stuffy nose, red eyes	despite the unpleasant side effects, it does give you a good erection with proper stimulation, just don't drink alcohol or it will cancel the effects..Also think about taking half a pill or less to limit side effects..	M	34	10 months		4/22/2007 Email
5	Getting Older	Big time flushing, stuffy nose.	I've never really had ED problems, but lately I was getting a little soft while changing positions, waiting for the wife to pee, etc... V is a gift from God. I don't remember EVER getting that hard. 50mg about 30 minutes before sex totally works for me. The flushing and stuffy nose are NOTHING compared to the benifits. V doesn't claim to make you last longer, but when I take it, I can ALWAYS last as long as I want. Who ever invented V should have more money than Bill Gates - seriously!!!	M	51	4 months		4/4/2007 Email
5	Problems with keeping it up!	Side effects? Waking up in the middle of the night with the stiff penis of a 13 year old, and like a 13 year old, not knowing what to do about it, because I didn't want my wife to know I was taking it. Makes a horny Stone Pony out of me!	Before, if my wife had to change positions, I lost it (bummer!).If only there was a similar pill for women! It gave me that uncomfortable sexual obsessing mindset I had when I was young and couldn't focus because of constant thinking about sex.	M	55	2 days		4/4/2007
5	mild preformance problems	nasal congestion,MOST IMPORTANT SIDE EFFECT NOT TALKED ABOUT: AFTER THE FACT CONCENTRATION PROBLEMS, INABILITY TO FOCUS, LOSS OF MENTAL ACUITY.	EVERYONE YOU MUST READ THIS POST: you can greatly reduce your the side effects of viagra if you get the soft-tabs and take the medicine under your tongue. You can take much less and there is no headache or stomach ache. I don't know why pfizer doesn't come out with a soft tab. can someone e-mail me if they have the loss of concentration issue. mpg3003@yahoo.com	M	52	7 years		4/3/2007 Email
5	episodic ED	For the first few time I took it, I had some flushing, but minor, like my ears felt warm. For the past 2 months I've been taking 50mg every Fri or Sat and notice no adverse side effects. My orgasms are not as deep, but I'm not sure if this is the effect of the drug or just my age. I think taking it every day would be overkill.	This wonder drug has consistently given me firm, long lasting erections. I never have to worry about losing it during sex and can last as long as I want. I have a new girlfriend who loves sex and she looks at me like I am superman during lovemaking. I reap all the rewards of fully satifying a woman. I wait a full hour before drinking a glass of wine or it cancels the effect. I have to have stimulation for it to work, but it doesn't take much. The effect for me lasts at least 18 hours and often 24. I see no need to ever stop taking it.	M	58	5 years		4/2/2007
5	Diffficulty maintaining erections	Headaches (I take an Aleve at the same time and it prevents the headache).	Fully effective at 25mg. Given their oddball pricing structure (all pills same price), I buy 100mg pills and cut them in 1/4ths. Maintains my erection until I'm ready to shoot; I can hold off pretty much as long as I want to, so my wife is able to have the multiple orgasms she (and I) enjoy so much. My medical insurer limits me to six pills every 60 days, which is a problem. Has anyone tried the "generic Viagra" from one of these Canadian pharmacies, who claim that it's the same chemical composition at less that $2 per pill?	M	67	10 months		3/21/2007
5	ED	Flushed Face. Headache. Upset stomach.	As a Gay Man there is more pressure on me to perform sexually than a straight man. Viagra helps me to maintain my erection while using a condomn. Anal intercourse with a very fit man can put a tremendous amount of pressure on your penis and prevent penetration from occurring, even with copious amounts of anal ease. Viagra makes penetrating even the tightest manhole a wonderful experience. I can't even begin to describe the feeling of receiving anal from a Viagra enhanced penis.	M	29	2 years		3/16/2007 Email
5	ED	Flushing in the face, headache, feeling ill.	My wife tells me to warn her when I take V so she can get herself in the right state of mind. 100mg makes me sick so I cut the tablets in half. Putting them under your tongue or chewing them up is very bitter but works in half the time. I haven't tried snorting them yet. If it didn't work I wouldn't pay $175 for (15) 100mg tablets.	M	41	3 years		3/16/2007
2	axiety	none	i'm not sure it worked, i did stiff , had sex but that could have been all me , where as i have axiety	M	29	1 days		3/15/2007
4	hard then soft hard then soft	i took it yeasterday at 1230. had a weird feeling in my nose at first. my pulse has been about 15 points higher than norm . i had sex with 2 females yesterday. i took 25mg dose. i might need the whole 50 ..i cut it in half.		M	34	1 days		3/3/2007 Email
