The 3x daily dosage is surprising to me because the one notable warning that comes with the prescription is to never take it more than once in a day. In fact, I would go as far to say that if you've been prescribed Viagra the only things you know about it are: it will help you get boners, you should talk to a doctor if you have a heart condition, and you should never use it more than once a day. The warning seemed extra ominous because it was basically the only warning, so I adhered to it fairly strictly at first.
About a year later I talked to some gay male friends and they all said that was ridiculous, that they freely take it multiple times per day, and I that should too. So now I do (as needed) and it's worked very well. Plus, the subscription I get through Hims sends me a giant bottle of 20mg pills (at an unreasonably high cost) so I am able to easily dose myself instead of being given a one-size-fits-all dosage, like we get with most medications. My low dose is 3 pills and my high dose is 5 pills.
Now there are many options beyond Viagra including a ton of intriguing combination drugs that use multiple erection drugs and/or other drugs with tangential effects. But I like that I know how Viagra works for me personally based on experience. I think we all underestimate how much drugs very from person to person. Plus, now that I think about the lack of warnings that come with Viagra, it actually seems like an unusually benign drug.
- UberFly 2y agoA typical dose of Viagra is 25,50 or 100 mg, so your 3-5 doses of 20 mg isn't even atypical. Also, there are plenty of warnings that come with Viagra usage. You may have not taken the time to read them.
