I've read here and other pages that it helps with getting and maintaining an erection. How does it compare to Viagra? Or is it all BS marketing hype?

Generally speaking, I don't need either but I don't pop a boner as quickly as I use to but strangely once I am hard it stays hard, even after cumming I stay hard for about 15 minutes!! Younger guys get hard instantly but go limp immediately after cumming but I don't. Anyone else like this?

I have used it. I think it has been beneficial but it is not a miracle drug. It also seems to increase somewhat the volume of ejaculate. Some claim it is best to cycle it by taking it for 2 or 3 weeks then not taking it for a week or so.

The supplement is used by body builders to increase blood flow and to swell the muscles. It should be cycled with 3 months on one off. Depending on age and fitness level it will make a difference but it isn't a steroid nor Viagra.

If your seeking a natural Viagra you might want to try Vitrix by Nutrex you don't need to cycle it.

So you guys who have used L Arginine, how much can you (or should you) take per day and for how long? I've been taking about 1,000 mg a day - just started three days ago.

The bottle says to take 1000mg 3 times a day, but all the literature I've read, and a doctor's talk show I just listened to on the topic indicate that 5000mg per day is needed for full effectiveness. That makes it a very expensive proposition. I take it for athletic purposes, not enhanced erectile function, and I've found that 3000mg per day works well for me.

2000 per day is ok, but the key is to stay on a schedule for a period of time. L-Arginine isnt a one time pill, it needs to build up in your system. As always, a good workout routine will supplement the effects and drink water

I am 66 and have taken L argine for years. My Dr told me about. I have no problem getting or holding an erection, and the amount of cum I eject is large. I take 1000 per day

It's much cheaper to buy the powder rather than the capsules. Unfortunately, the powder has an unpleasant bitter taste. I buy the powder and empty capsules, and then put the powder in capsules myself. It doesn't take much effort, and you save quite a bit of money over time.

I take a 1000mg a day for the past year or so...much firmer and thicker when fully aroused...also hangs fuller thruout the day too. Bigger loads...not so much.
