When something works well for you, it is a natural human instinct to believe that a higher dose of it could make things even better. It is often only after we have tried, that we realise there can be too much of a good thing.  As much of a nightmare erectile dysfunction (ED) can be, it could be a bigger nightmare if you can’t get rid of an erection which stays for hours on end.

Even though there have been no reports of this leading to a fatal condition, taking more than one of the pills (Viagra, Cialis or Levitra) could lead to the condition of ‘priapism’ or sustained painful erection, which could last for more than five hours. This is a serious condition, for which medical help should be sought immediately. Under such circumstances, make sure you see a doctor immediately, even if you find the erection lasting for more than an hour.

However, this does not always happen after taking too large a dosage, and if you are lucky, all you might experience is a slight giddiness, blurred vision or a stuffy nose. Whatever the case, just make sure to call your doctor, just to be on the safe side.

Always remember – no matter how tempting it is to find out what a double dose can do for you, you would be much better off not getting too adventurous when it comes to such a combination treatment. If in any doubt regarding the dosage, just ask your doctor – or us at Menscare – and choose what is best for you.
