If you’re considering medication to improve your erections and sexual
experiences, you've probably heard about the two most popular active ingredients; Cialis
and Viagra. Popularized by Viagra and Cialis, they have been researched for decades.
These ingredients have some small differences and a lot in common, including
a success rate of more than 80 percent. Below you find a high-level overview of their
benefits, differences, risks, and important safety information to help you make an
informed decision.
Important Safety Information
Do not take Cialis (Cialis citrate) or Viagra if you take medication
containing nitrates or guanylate cyclase stimulators for pulmonary hypertension as this
could cause an unsafe drop in blood pressure or if you are allergic to Cialis, Viagra or
any ingredients in either medication. Discuss your health with your doctor to ensure
that you are healthy enough for sex. If you experience chest pain, dizziness, or nausea
during sex, seek immediate medical help. Cialis and Viagra can cause serious side
effects. Read more.
The four things you should know when making your decision.
1.Consider your plans
When your evening plans with your special someone include dining, it’s
important to remember that food can impact how effectively your body absorbs medication.
If Cialis is taken after a meal, particularly those which are rich in fats, then it may
take longer for the medicine to work. That is one of the main reasons people are
choosing chewable tablets that break down in your mouth and are now available at
mailMyMeds™. Viagra may be taken without regard to food intake, however, we do not
recommend eating grapefruit or drinking grapefruit juice while taking the chewable
tablets offered through the mailMyMeds.com portal, as grapefruit can affect the way the
body metabolizes the medication.
2.Timing is everything
If you’ll be spending more than an evening with your partner and don't know
when the timing is going to be right, you may prefer a drug that has a longer window of
opportunity. Cialis remains in the body longer, as long as 36 hours in most cases, so
there’s no need to rush your time together. This is a big plus, because anxiety and
nervousness also can cause Erectile Dysfunction (ED) even when the blood flow is working
just fine.
Viagra, however, has a short four to six-hour active time frame, which means
you’ll need to plan your time carefully to avoid it wearing off before you need it.
3.Daily dosing or on demand.
For men that want to be able to have sex at any time, Cialis might be the
better choice. Since it stays in your system for 24-36 hours, it gives you more
opportunities for spontaneous intercourse whenever you and your partner are in the mood.
Viagra, on the other hand, is prescribed for use as needed. It generally
takes about an hour before becoming effective, so a little extra patience (and planning)
must be taken into consideration.
4.Cost is always a factor
Since both medications molecules are off patent, the cost has been reduced
considerably from their entry into the market. This is very good news because it
shouldn't cost a fortune to be intimate with your partner. Your particular prescription
will be based on the strength of the drug, so, obviously, the higher the dosage, the
higher the price will be for you. At mailMyMeds we try to keep the price reasonable by
never charging for a doctors appointment and patient support. For men that want to be
able to have sex at any time, Cialis might be the better choice. Since it stays in your
system for 24-36 hours, it gives you more opportunities for spontaneous intercourse
whenever you and your partner are in the mood.
