Viagra becomes ineffective in hot weather

[wombat42]

I took some viagra to Malta. After about a week my viagra became completely ineffective. Reading up I realised that the temperature in my hotel was too hot much of the time. When I was out of my room the air conditioning was automatically switched off. It looks like anything around 30 degrees destroys viagra's effectiveness. I think what I should have done was put the viagra in my hotel room fridge which is apparently OK just as long as it does not approach freezing.

I don't take or need viagra...yet.

However, two things for you to be aware of.

1/ It has storage requirements to maintain its effectiveness, and those include keeping it below 30 degrees. So yes the fridge would've been a good idea.

2/ In higher temperatures ensure that you don't become dehydrated, as that can result in the release of angiotensin, a peptide hormone that has a vasoconstriction effect. Viagra is intended to have the opposite effect of vasodilation. You're also more likely to experience viagra side effects if not properly hydrated.

   I had similar experiance 2  Silema has pharmacy were I was able to get fresh ones the mistake I felt I`d made was I cut them up prior to leaving UK as Id got 100 mgs I was fine with 1/4 ish bit now I take a half to be sure the trouble was I also was drinking Cisk beer and eating quite fatty food and cake even though id leave taking for 2hrs after food and 1 hour before play I had crappy stiffies  I found mostly Russian ?urkraines which spoke broken English and Italian ...yeah right lv Romanians there last year in Valetta and Port...

I've been punting since 2002 but only taking Sildenafil since around 2012.
During the first 10 years I experienced much greater difficulty reaching orgasm when punting in hot weather and non-a/c rooms.
Now I am on the pill (normally 50mg, sometimes 100mg) I still often find that hot weather inhibits orgasm although the erection sustaining effects are still present.
I can't comment on whether keeping the pills in too hot conditions renders them less effective because I just don't know.
But what I experience is that with or without the chemical aforementioned, a happy ending, for me at least, is in cooler seasons more frequently.
