50mg vs 100mg: Efficacy and Side Effects Comparison

Generally, a 50mg dose is the recommended starting point for Viagra. Many men find this sufficient. However, if 50mg proves ineffective, a 100mg dose may be considered.

Here’s a breakdown:

Efficacy

    50mg: Successful for a significant percentage of men experiencing erectile dysfunction. Expect improved erectile function and harder erections in most cases. 100mg: Offers a potentially higher likelihood of success for those who don’t respond adequately to 50mg. However, it doesn’t guarantee success for everyone.

Note: Individual responses vary greatly. Factors such as age, overall health, and the severity of ED influence results.

Side Effects

Increasing the dosage increases the likelihood of side effects, although this isn’t always the case.

Common Side Effects (both doses): Headache, facial flushing, nasal congestion, indigestion, visual disturbances (blurred vision, changes in color perception). More Frequent with 100mg: The intensity of the common side effects listed above may be higher. Rarely, more serious side effects such as prolonged erection (priapism) or sudden vision or hearing loss can occur.

Important: Consult your doctor before increasing your dose. They can assess your individual needs and risks, ensuring the safest and most effective treatment plan.
