I have to do a quick 2 min. discussion on the differences between ED meds Viagra, Levitra, and Celias. Anybody have any good facts about side effects, duration of action, mechanism of action, etc.
 
For Levitra:

If your stiffy lasts for more than 4 hours, see your doc. Seriously.

their ad campaigns are all unique at least --

viagra: made bob dole get it up for britney
levitra: helps you be really "accurate" at "throwing a football" (not sure what the innuendo is there, but whatever)
cialis: allows you to get an erection while sitting with a woman in separate tubs on top of a mountain; also, has really phallic logo (no, really: www.cialis.com/index.jsp)
women: still don't have prescription aphrodisiac
 
viagra - most data, most used, best side effect profile; DO NOT USE WITH NITRATES... bad!

levitra - wannabe viagra, didn't have all that much difference from placebo (and the clinical trials excluded anyone who'd ever tried and/or failed viagra... sounds fishy to me).

Cialis - been used in europe for a while, is being marketed as "the weekender" as it's half life is 36hrs... however, one of the CI's listed is alcohol INXS (i think specifically 5 drinks or so)... so if you're planning to go away with the missus/mistress/mister/sheep/whatever, don't plan on the bottle of wine with dinner...

also, none of these change the refractory period - so even if you have the potential to get a woody, it (a) still needs stimulation and (b) won't reload any faster....

might also add that one needs to r/o neurogenic/psychologic causes first

hope this helps,

viagra with food decreases its release into plasma
