Qs about Viagra, Cialis, & Levitra - Sexual Dysfunction Treatment Message Board

Have any of you used these products? Is Cialis really effective for 36 hours? Is it equally effective for all 36 hours or does it fade off toward the end? The only of the three above products that I've tried is Viagra. It works great, but I don't like the fact that it only lasts about 4 hours and you're only supposed to take one a day. My gf and I see each other only on weekends and I'd like to be able to perform in the morning, afternoon, evening, or night. Does anyone know how long Levitra works for? I haven't been able to find that out. Do the three work equally effectively? Do they work if you have sex more than once in the same day or is each dosage good for only one orgasm? Thanks for all your answers!

Cialis does last about 36 hours. If you take one on a Friday night you should be good until Sunday morning and then you may need to take another one if you plan on sex again on Sunday. It improves blood flow to the penis so you can achieve better erections. Like you said Viagra only works for 4 or 5 hours the same as levitra and the intensity wears off at the end. Cialis is different and you can also eat a meal before taking it and it will not have any effect on the potency unlike viagra....

I have used all three - have a script for V and have samples of L and C.

I find Viagra lasts 4-5 hours for me, but when using one (50mg) in the evening I find it often also helps the next morning when I am naturally half-way erect anyway.

Levitra also lasts about 4-5 hours for me. I have noticed a benefit from Cialis for up to 24 hours after taking it, but not 36 hours. My doc is going to give me a script for Cialis the next time I see him (next week) and I will switch to it for a while.

Just my observations.
