Synopsis: A drug that increases blood flow, resulting in harder
and longer erections. It works within 30 minutes of ingestion and lasts up
to 36 hours.
Our Review:
First, a serious disclaimer; if you do NOT have erection problems,
do NOT take this drug. The side effects can include headache,
stomach ache, backache, and general muscle ache. In extremely rare
cases, a condition known as Priapism, in which the penis becomes
engorged and does not subside after 4 hours, can cause permanent
damage to you penis and should be treated immediately by a doctor.
Don't take Cialis if you are using nitrates (often used for chest
pain) or alpha-blockers prescribed for prostate problems. Finally,
it's best to avoid drinking lots of alcohol when taking Cialis as
you may get dizzy and/or lower your blood pressure.
With all that, I
still embarked on a 36 hour stint with Cialis, taken on a Sunday
night and concluding Tuesday morning. During that period, I had
sex with Eddy four times, masturbated twice, and was able to get
hard practically at will (with a little help from our monstrous
porn collection and latest issue of Playboy) and the effects did
last about 35 hours. The second time Eddy and I engaged in
intercourse (which was only an hour after the first), I basically
could have continued thrusting away indefinitely and stayed rock
hard; no amount of beating on my penis caused it to go flaccid. I
was reminded of Viagra, except that Viagra wore off far sooner. Of
course, once I climaxed, things returned to normal. I did
experience mild to uncomfortable headaches for the first few hours
and they continued even after I popped a couple of Ibuprofen,
though less in their severity. The morning after our first two
encounters, we had sex again, I masturbated two hours later, and
we had sex for the fourth time in 24 hours that Monday night.
And how did I
manage to get my hands on Cialis? Just check your e-mail. I simply
answered one of the hundreds of spam messages advertising Cialis,
filled out a 25 question "doctor's" questionnaire, and the drug
arrived within 7 days. Since I ordered the minimum number of
dosages, the cost was $144.00 for 10 tablets. I'm sure I could
have gotten better pricing by going for a generic version or
simply by shopping around more; however, my purpose wasn't to
review sources, so I went for the first supplier I found in my
e-mails.
In summary, I
can't in good conscience recommend this product to anyone who
isn't experiencing erectile dysfunction. Even then, I'd probably
go with Viagra as I didn't have to put up with the headaches for
an entire day using the Pfizer product. However, I've read that
results and side effects vary greatly from person to person, so
perhaps my experiences are not common. Bottom line: Cialis is an
effective tool to help bring males firm, hard erections and its 36
hour duration makes it very conducive to spontaneity, since you
can choose the time and place for intimacy without worrying about
when you last took the drug.
