About the Three Medications Most Prescribed for Impotence

Many of you might be familiar with the three different types of oral medications that doctors prescribe for impotence. One of the most popular ones is Viagra. How much do you know about them though besides the brand name, of course? Not many men know enough. So, this is why we are going to use the opportunity to educate you on them so you have a little bit more knowledge when it comes to this.

We’ll start with Viagra since it’s the most everyone knows about. Now, in order for this drug to work you have to be stimulated sexually. When that happens, you will have an erection that can last up to three or four hours. The downside to this is that it normally takes you an hour to find that you have an erection.

Cialis is another drug that is normally prescribed. Now, just like Viagra, you take this before sexual activity. It is normally recommended that you take this thirty minutes before you plan on doing anything. Just with Viagra, you have to be sexually stimulated. The thing you need to remember about this drug, though, is that it doesn’t increase your sex drive.

There is also Levitra. You must take this anywhere between ten minutes to one hour before you desire to engage in intercourse. The nice thing that men like about this is that it lasts longer. Once you take Levitra, you can last up to twelve hours. Just like Cialis, this too does not increase the sex drive.

Now, we told you that there are only three medications that are normally prescribed to men who suffer from impotence. However, there is one other that we will mention as this too can often be prescribed. This would be Uprima. It takes fifteen minutes to see this pill in action. Unlike other pills that doctors will prescribe, you don’t swallow this one. The reason that it is so quick is because it’s dissolved under the tongue so it therefore goes straight to the blood stream. You can find that it’s effective for you for up to two hours. The other nice thing about this is that you don’t have to be sexually aroused for it to work in your favor.

Now that you have an idea as to what is out there, you can see what your doctor thinks about this. He or she might have some concerns about some of the drugs mentioned. However, having a starting point is never a bad idea.
