[quote author=Pecker link=board=meetgreet;num=1073582373;start=0#12 date=01/10/04 at 21:00:07]Luckily I don't need a Viagra-type med yet, but my drs. tell me that if I did I'd be out of luck.

I had a myocardial infarction, with sudden death, in 1999 and I carry nitro glycerin tabs with me for occasional angina.  If I were to take a Viagra, or any of its current competitors, and soon after need to take a nitro tablet, I could die.

The funny thing is, I have a good pharmaceutical deal with Pfizer that would allow me to buy Viagra for only $15 per month.

Peck, you sure researched that thoroughly on their website? Because normally they have warnings about drug interaction.

I take Lipitor cq through them, along with a host of other meds, and haven't experienced any problems with them. Oh, yeah, and I also got the Patient Assistance Program too. Saves a wad, don't it? Of MONEY, PECK, of money.

Indeed they do! The "package insert" sheet that comes with the viagra tablets (if your pharmacist is doing his/her job) has a big warning never to combine viagra with any nitrates, including recreational nitrates ("poppers," etc.), and the same information is on the web site.

mekkler: I tried it a few times when my gf got some doctor samples. I couldn't tell that they had any effect whatsoever except nasal congestion and a mild headache. Yes I got erections each time, but I can do that anyway.

Yeap, I tried them when they first became available b/c I've always been game for 'new' sexual aids. My son has a friend who knows a dude who worked in a drug warehouse. On their first shipment of Viagra he damaged a carton which fell off his fork lift. He managed to get several boxes of the pills and sold them 'dirt cheap'. That was many years ago and I still have a couple of containers left.

They give me a rigid erection, but also a slightly nagging headache the next morning, unless I take a pain killer like Advil a few minutes before taking the Viagra. I dislike taking any kind of chemical, hence my reason for having lots of Viagra left!

ericbeaar:
DMW gives a good explanation in this thread of Jan. 10
re. the difference in amyl nitrite (with an "i") and amyl nitrate (with an "a"). They are often confused. If you haven't read it, do so.
