Are You taking Viagra before bed to prevent impotence?

A Urologist thinks if young, healthy men take low doses of Viagra at night, could prevent impotence. Anyone here do that?

I think it is b….t, what kind of a doctor is this who puts healthy people on meds. a drug dealer?:)) viagra cialis are good meds, but only in case you need it.

This is a very good article about this issue:

Q. What Happens if You Take Viagra and You Don't Really Need It?

A. Men who say they don't have any problems achieving or maintaining erections say that using Viagra dramatically changes the sexual experience, but not always in a good way.

They say taking Viagra gives them a far more rigid erection that is so intense that it's almost uncomfortable, causing them to lose some sensation and making it difficult to finally achieve orgasm. One person described the feeling like puffing your cheeks full of air and then pushing them out as hard as you can.

Others say the physical reaction happens so effortlessly that it becomes intense long before the man's own level of excitement can catch up, creating a feeling of detachment. "The disembodied feeling is a really profound feeling," says the ViagraStories.com editor, a 33-year-old San Francisco man who has used the drug three times.

Mr. Brykman, managing editor of National Lampoon, used only one of the six pills his doctor gave him, and also says he felt disassociated from the experience. He says that although physically it worked, "it didn't have anything to do with arousal. As far as excitement levels or arousal levels, it didn't live up to my expectations."

Those who have used Viagra "recreationally," however, say the drug, nonetheless, makes it much easier to sustain an erection and achieve a second erection relatively quickly after orgasm.

Pfizer balks at the notion of a recreational use for Viagra, contending that if someone can feel the effect of Viagra, then they, by definition, have lost some sexual function. And the reality is, sexual function starts to fade in the 20s.

"Viagra helps to improve erectile function which isn't optimal, " says Pfizer's Dr. Sweeney. "If you're a 20-year-old college guy with no diseases and you have great erectile function, it's not going to do anything for you. It can't make it go beyond normal."

Actually, there is a rumored side effect to Viagra that if young, healthy men take it on a regular basis they can become dependent upon it in order to ever become erect. If you don’t need it, don’t take it. Not worth the risk.

No, I didn’t hear that.

I have only read, that many men who suffered mild and severe ED who took low dosage of Viagra for a time improved their nocturnal and daily erections.

That can be true, but to give Viagra to young people I don’t believe it.

Because younger men don’t need Viagra, they have good and hard erections.

But if they have a problem, they can go to the doctor.

not a good idea

take it when you think you will need it

do some research and learn more about how these meds work

You can read more about these drugs and their side effects at the online pharmacy site that I use below.

I had never listened this practice for the treatment of the erectile dysfunction (ED), all the medicines are not taken from the same form, Viagra is taken by mouth as needed between four hours and one-half hour before sexual activity (about one hour before is most effective).

Take only as directed, usually once daily as needed.
