Generally, doctors recommend starting with 50mg. This dose works well for many men. If it’s ineffective, you can increase to 100mg. However, don’t exceed 100mg without consulting your doctor.
A 100mg dose provides a stronger effect, potentially leading to a longer-lasting erection and increased firmness. This higher dose might be necessary if the 50mg dose proves insufficient. However, a higher dose isn’t always better, and can increase the risk of side effects.
Side effects vary, but common ones include headaches, flushing, nasal congestion, and visual disturbances. These are usually mild and temporary. A higher dose increases the likelihood of experiencing these side effects.
Your doctor will consider your overall health, including other medications you take, before recommending a dose. They’ll help determine the best option for your individual needs and minimize potential risks. Honest communication with your doctor is key to safe and effective treatment.
Never adjust your dosage without consulting your physician. They can monitor your progress and make necessary adjustments to optimize your treatment plan.
