Has anyone tried herbal tablets for ED? Do they work? If they did what were the main ingredients that we should be looking for?

I tried generic sildenafil but i get palpitations. I then tried tadalafil, which was much better on the heart but the effects were either very delayed or non existent. Cant keep buying random tablets to try out so I thought I will check here

The "herbal" blue pills you get from vending machines in gents toilets are a waste of time and money, you may as well as buy a bag of wine gums they would have the same effect. I would say that applies to all " herbal" type ED pills.

They don’t work. They contain Korean Ginseng and other stuff. Those that say they do, I think would be the placeco effect.

Have you tried Levitra (Vardenafil)? It's the best pill out there imo.

In my experience in terms of strength:

Vardenafil > Sildenafil > Avanafil > Tadalafil

Speak to your GP.

Otherwise it could go horribly wrong and you die.... just because you don't want to have a conversation with your GP.

These are OTC (over the counter) meds not illegal prescription medication, so its all good (I work in the profession so I am aware) - but thanks mate.

Its not a clinical ED problem rather just something to assist

But if you're getting palpitations then I suggest a check up with your GP would be a good thing instead of experimenting with drugs that mess with your heart.

Palpitations are a relatively uncommon side effect.

Palpitations are a relatively uncommon side effect.

Yes I got some palpitations with Sildenafil. So I stopped taking it and no more palpitations. So I think my GP would probably say the same thing?

It's pointless these days, they just google stuff and most of them can't speak proper English. Pass

I think your GP might check your blood pressure in general to understand why you suffered from the uncommon side effect because you might have an underlying health condition that makes ED drugs a bad idea

or you could continue experimenting with these drugs and see what happens...

Speak for yourself, from my personal experience I've had excellent service from all the doctors and medical practitioners at my practice as well as from the NHS in general.

I think you may be right mate. I will check it out, cheers

Thanks buddy, but I would have to disagree. English may be a problem but they certainly know there stuff. I am very grateful for this service to be honest

Disagree completely, I’ve had just the opposite. They just prescribe any rubbish and it does nothing, no help whatsoever.

Decided to take on the matters myself, went carnivore around April, best I’ve ever felt. Screw the big Pharma.

You disagree that I've had an excellent service from my GP surgery and the NHS in general, how does that work?  :unknown:

I must be dead then as the NHS saved my life with the service they provided and continue to provide.   :wacko:

Davie, your very lucky to have access to a good GP and if the NHS has you sorted then thats great, but do bear in mind that many haven't or got anywhere like easy access to their or any GP.

I had to take a relative to an A&E department recently she had severe chest pain that was just like a heart attack had to what there around an hour or more for her to be seen, (place was heaving with people who couldnt get to a GP!) and she did end up in Papworth or give it its correct title the Royal Papworth which sorted  her out it was a thing called Mycarditis, spelt that wrong, but all the same they can just about get people back from the dead at that place one of the best hospitals of its type in the world :-)

That said suggest that the OP to gets to see a GP to make sure theres nothing elese wrong thats causing this issue it may be that your taking somethimg else thats what they say in the trade is a  contraindication even herbal remedies can cause issues. By all means ask peoples opinions hereon but get a GP to check you out first please!..

I've had mixed results from GPs and specialists, but regardless, they have much more knowledge and tests available to them than you can do yourself.
If you heart palpitations from taking erectile disfunction medication, you should get it looked at before trying anything else.
Whatever is causing it might be the same thing causing the erection problems in the first place.

I assume you got them either through an online doctor or without a prescription at all ( or your GP would have checked you out already).

Don't take the ones u put in your eyes (eye drops) they make u look hard

Genuine question here as thankfully I've never had to need a blue pill to get the old chap up.

Just wondering, when you do take a viagra, when it gets into the system, does your dick automatically start to go hard or do you have to give it some encouragement?

I suppose this could be an age related question  :unknown:

If you're young and virile, just thinking about sex, and taking Viagra, could give you a totem pole.

But, if your old like me, I need some encouragement  :)

Just taking the pill doesn't make your dick go hard. You need to be sexual aroused and the pill just helps.

They can work in as little as 10 mins
And the cheaper ones from boots work just as good
