Hi all, I've just started using Cialis 5mg daily for ED, which works fairly well. I buy the 20mg table and cut it in quarters, at a huge savings, but often it's difficult to cut exact. Can this be an issue, where I may get 4 mg one day and 6 the next? The half life is 17hr so I don't see much of an issue. Also, occasionally, it doesn't work really well and I can only stay hard long enough at times. I can work the hardness back up but a PITA. Can I take a "boost", perhaps an additional amount of Cialis to help out on days that I'll be active? In the past, I've just taken a 20 prior to activity, but somewhat eliminates the spontaneous events, which we like. The 20 is suppose to last some 18 hours, and often does... perhaps taking a 20 every other or third d...

Hello, I found a Round Blue pill in my medicine Cabinet with an uppercase V on one side and the other side is blank. The pill is a baby blue color, its a little glossy ( not sure if this is the time release or not ). No Divisional lines on either side. I understand there is a Brand logo with a Cursive Letter V , however this pill's logo is not in cursive nor does it have identifying Numbers on the back. ## I also found one of these in the medicine cabinet of a new apartment. After doing some googling I am pretty sure it is either Viagra or Cialis (ED pill)...glad I didn't take it lol.

Just had injection last wensday slight pain but constant itching, will this stop? ## Hello, JC! How are you doing? Has the itching gone away, yet? You might be having an allergic reaction to something in it and may need antihistamines. Is there a rash and hives, or just topical itching? The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including skin irritation, site soreness, irritability and weight changes.

Im highly allergic to fdc yellow 5 dye. I take Tamsulosin 4mg and as far as I know Sandoz is the only lab manufacturing Tambulosing 4mg cap -without- fdc yellow 5 as an innert. However Sandoz has had Tamsulosin pending manufacture for about 2 months and I am having a hard time ensuring enough supply. My pharmacyst is working with their distributor who claims to be in contact with Sandoz to get "my" dye-fee tamsulosin but so far, no luck and I only have 30 caps left (take 1 a day) Do you know if any other lab who manufacture Tamsulosin 4mg without yellow dye? ## Hello, Jose! How are you? There is one from Teva Pharmaceuticals with the marking 93 7338 on each half of the capsule that used yellow 6, one from Mylan that is a blue capsule with MYLAN 2500 on both halves that doesn...

Where can topiglan cream be bought? ## Hello, Norm! How are you? I'm sorry, but according to the manufacturer's website, it has not been approved by the FDA, so it is not available, yet. They also state that once it is, it will most likely require a prescription. Since it's topical, the side effects are minimal and it can be more convenient that taking pills or receiving other treatments. Have you consulted your doctor for a solution? ## Is topiglan available at pharmacies in Canada or Europe?

blue capsule, N940 on L on right 200. It is low dose testosterone? OR male enhancement? ## Based on the description provided, I found the blue capsule to be Acyclovir (200 mg). Acyclovir is primarily used for the treatment of herpes simplex virus infections, as well as in the treatment of herpes zoster (shingles). For more information about this drug, please refer to the link below... If you have any more questions or concerns, please post back and I will be happy to help you. ## Is the inside color white? How would I know if they were being filled with something else, as these capsules are easily opened

Am taking Indopril 8 once per day for Hypertension. Would it be ok to have Viagra ## What have your blood pressure levels been at, while on the Indopril? Taking it with the Viagra can cause more lowering of your blood pressure, so it may be dangerous to mix them, if your blood pressure levels are normal or low, because combining the two medications could cause it to fall too low.

I was reading through the previous questions and I see that it is pretty common to have irritated skin after use with the gel. My first question is, I use 4 pumps every morning can I apply lotion to the application site after the gel dries? Or maybe a few hours after? Another question I have is, my prescription says to apply in the morning. But I work 3rd shift. Is it absorbed better in the AM hours? Or can I apply it after I have awoke around 10 which is my "morning" is there really any difference between application times? I talked to my pharmacist as well as my doctors NP but neither were able to give me a clear defined answer. ## Hello, Jay! How are you? The reason it's stated to apply in the morning, is because it's supposed to be done after showering or bathing. Th...

33 year old male. Total T was not low low but 333 and I'm very active, keep in shape, have had ED at times, but think that's from my adderall. Long story short, I see all these posts on different sites about guys taking axiron and the first day or 2 they feel "healed." How is that possible? I understand the peak of test for a couple hrs but u gotta crash no? My doc who is a GP doesn't know crap about TRT I am on my 18th day and he said it won't start working or I won't feel effects of more energy,libido etc for 4-5 months. The first week I was fine the next week, I couldn't get out of bed,no appetite, chills,so tired but couldn't sleep at all!!and mood swings like you wouldn't believe.I thought of stopping it bit first called Dr n he said no way i...

cost of testopel ?? ## for 750 mg in a single dose of Testopel 950.00 plus 240 .00 for insert of 10 for a primary treatment. ## Testopel Pellets contain Testosterone, they are mainly used to treat men that are deficient in this hormone. As to the price you quoted, it is going to vary from doctor to doctor and will not be universal from one to the other. It depends on their mark-up on the Testopel and what they charge for the implantation procedure. Are there any other questions? ## What is the AWP for Testopel per pellet. ## Does Blue Shield of California cover most or at least some of the costs of Testopel pellet injections? ## Any women had this done? If so, what were your resuls - any side effects? ## I see this is question is 9 months old but I will reply anyway. I am a woman who ha...

Started a gel treatment for low T levels. Checked levels 30 days later and levels decreased by 50% instead of increasing. What now? ## Hello, Mad Dog! What gel were you using? Some formulations work better for some people than others. There was a post on here recently about a man that went from the gel to the Testopel pellets, but found they didn't work as well as the gel, so they had to be removed and he had to start using the gel, again. Have you talked to your doctor about it? You may need to try the pellets to see if they work for you. ## Bro you need anti estrogens your levels are out of whack that's all.

Is it safe to take livitra and take atenol,,this all i take,no other troubles..i am 66 ## There are no interactions listed between the two, but you should check with your doctor, or pharmacist to be certain. Did the same doctor prescribe them both, so they are aware you are taking them? ## What are the side effects of atenolol 25? I have been taking it for the last 9 years.

I read old post and Androderm sure got a lot of bashing. I have yet to have one fall off. Actually they are hard to take off. Had the glue stick to me after i removed it. I showered with one on just to see and it would not come off, even using a scubby cloth on it. I found out if I take a shot shower and scrub where the patch was, the red spot does not last as long. that is the only two complaints I have is the spot it leaves on my body and itches like crazy. I hope my levels continue to increase. I only had them on for a month. I have to wait 2 more months before new blood work. My balls have not shrunk or my hair fallen out like i read in older posts. I hope I get good results. Only think so far is the muscles stiffness is gone. I am getting workouts at the gym too. I been really hung...

I had been on Axiron for 4 or 5 years. My levels remained around 640. Go in one month and my level had dropped 300 points? Doc did MRI of pituitary gland and all was ok. was using one pump under both arm. He moved me to two pumps under each arm. Still not helping as far as libido. I have not went back to do blood work. I only go every three months. What do you think happened? ## Hello, John! How are you? From what others have posted, it seems that it only works for awhile for most people, then just suddenly stops. Some have only had a boost for a month, or two, some for years, but sooner or later, everyone said it's eventually stopped working and they had to switch to something else. Have you tried any of the other testosterone supplementation products? The FDA lists the typical sid...

Hi, I am 30. I don't have ED problem but I eject very quickly. Sometimes within 2 min. I started taking generic viagra 2 weeks back 50mg. It didn't work as I expected. 2 days back i took 100mg. It works great. I usually takes twice in a week. Is it ok? Do I need to take any precautions? For the record, I didn't noticed any side effects. ## You should take those viagra with a doctors consultation since they can guide you best for your health based on medical history.

I started on AndroGel about 2 months ago. I am getting pain on the right side of my abdomen. Had to go to ER 2X ran test. 2 CT scans with and without contrast. Everything looks normal. But pain is still there. I suspect it might be the Androgel but not sure because even after discontinuing (on my own) still had some pain. Then when I re continued pain seemed to increase. Pain is a sharp stabbing pain. That comes and goes. I am hesitant to tell my doctor because I fear he might just cut me off. And i really feel more energy and stronger erection while on Androgel. I am 37 and my last blood test my test level was 335 Has anyone had the same experience? If I switch to other product will I likely have same problem? ## Hi Oscar - stomach pain is actually considered one of the more serious si...

Good Afternoon, I am currently 2 months into my testopel implant and the first 6 weeks I definitely felt the difference, but now my T levels are starting to drop back down. I recently did my blood test and my Doc confirmed that the levels are dropping but because they are still a little over 300 he cannot do another procedure because my insurance wont approve it until my levels drop to 205 again. Can I use T400 while I have Testopel stll in me ? Thanks in advance for the responses ## Hi Lucas, I think depending on how long you intend to continue testopel treatment would be a good indicator as to whether or not you should supplement with additional testosterone, since adding more (i.e. increasing your levels) may also increase your wait time for another procedure - If I understand that c...

Peach in color. 20 on one side and T on the other. No score. Found it in my medicine cabinet and don't recognize it. ## I've checked several databases and I can't find a listing for this, either.

Hello! I'm soon to be switching from Axiron to Fortesta. Can the Fortesta be applied under the arms/armpits the way Axiron is? Even using the applicator that is used with Axiron? Just curious as it would seem easy to apply that way. Thank you! ## Hello, Guessto! How are you? Actually, the Fortesta instructions say that it should be applied on to the front and inner thigh. They do not specify why it is different from other products, but following their guidelines would be the best thing to do, unless your doctor approves for you to use a different place to apply it. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Hello Verwon, Thank you so much for replying! Yes, I'm aware of where the Fortesta is supposed to be applied (front or inner thigh area). I know technically directions should...
