Viagra headaches

Guys, the most common side effect with Viagra are the intense headaches. Can I take Tylenol when the Viagra headache hits? Will the Tylenol diminish the potency of Viagra? Silly question, but you are the ones who could help with an answer.

Thanks.

I can't answer about Tylenol's effect on Viagra, it didn't help for my headaches. My suggestion is to face the reality that a drug which gives you headaches is probably affecting you in other ways that might not be so obvious. While Viagra worked for me it gave me headaches, blue vision, brachycardia, flushed face, etc. The good erection wasn't enjoyable or worth it. There are several alternative PDE5 drugs out there now, get a Rx for a different one and try it. I tried several before finding the one that worked best for me.

Back about 15 years ago I took Viagra and got headaches from it two days in a row. The third day I took it I had a mini stroke where different things were going on in each eye. I still have a very slight facial droop in one side to show for it. If I used it now my doctor thinks I could have a major stroke from it. This is just my experience, yours will absolutely vary … the older you get the more at risk you are at heart disruptions and stroke. Possibly considering one of the newer alternative drugs would be worth doing.

Just say’in 💪💪💪❤️❤️❤️

If it gets stuck in your throat, you could get a stiff neck.

Yes. No problem with the combination of sildenafil with Tylenol.

Hello, I had same problem. Headaches are no fun, perhaps try Cialis. 😉

I also took Tylenol for the headache and it worked ok.

Due to the many side effects of V, and the fact that I am already take so many pills each day, I decided to use Caverject for intercourse.

I use the 30Ga insulin needles and the injection only hurts for 7 sec.

Then I'm good for an hour of erection, easy.

The trick is to get the right dosage. The insulin syringes are very precise.

I recommend it.

Oh, now I remember you and the pain train. How long does it take for the pain to subside? I'm taking Bisphosphonates, and also get the train, lol.

It’ll kick in hard tomorrow night or mid day, the day after. It’ll come and go, eventually ending abruptly…up to 8 days later ( overall ). Besides the intense muscle pains and flu like effects, it has a mental component that releases suddenly and you know that within a couple hours it’s mostly gone. I have a friend that has it return for a brief encore about two weeks later. Doesn’t happen to me tho. I’m well experienced and well prepared for the onslaught nowadays …. Smooth sailing in a storm for me. Still it basically takes the first week of every month from me and I have to plan around it.

Yea …. I’ll be fine .. got all the meds to deal with the SEs and the great diversion you mention. Right now I’m immersed in Quest VR goggle action, VR being one of newest kinds of pain killers that I learned about from my wife that worked at UCSF San Francisco. UCSF pioneered VR pain management in pediatrics and was one of their most popular booths at all the nation wide conferences. You can Google “ VR goggle pain relief “ for some amazing revelations.

It’s impressive for pain ( who knew ? ) and great fun at the same time. Nights, tho, I’ll be waking up about 6 hours into the nights sleep when “ the meds “ have worn off and need to re- dose myself but other than that minor inconvenience and being stuck at home ….it’s all good.

Quest VR ( and prolly all newer VR headsets ) will present movies and streaming web material from any source in humongous giant screen format ( perceived ) … some views so big you can’t see it all without looking around yayahahahaya yayahahahaya. Dunno if you’ve tried those yet, but if you go to a grandkids or nephews house , try their VR headset and prepare to be stunned / dazzled. The pain management benefit a big bonus.

Try adding L-arginine to whatever you take. It is called the poor man's viagra. I've used viagra and cialis and a combination of the two without headaches. I'm lucky to never suffer from headaches. Have you tried a lighter dose of viagra?

In my opinion.... Viagra headaches: you guys are seeing the wrong specialist for your drug. An assessment must include a thorough examination of the head and neck muscles to determine the presence of abnormal tension, and of the external carotid vasculature to determine whether there is an arterial element to the pain. See your Cardiologist!

Viagra not only affects blood flow to your penis, but to the entire vascular network. An Urologist is ill equipped to solve vascular problems. It makes no difference if one takes Tylenol for a headache or Sudafed for a runny nose if the underlying problem is not dealt with. See your Cardiologist!

No sense in giving you personal stories as some will yell antidotal. So, if you are among the 25% with Viagra headaches, the question is why? Could it be you are among the populace with vascular problems as well......
