Medication

**calm** · 05-25-2015

Anyone here taking any medications that negatively affect their PE gains?Unless this is somewhere else, please share you experience so if this gets big enough maybe it can be made a sticky. I take adderall daily and experience the worst shrinkage. I upped my L-Arginine dose to counter-effect. For all of you out there taking adderall, or any drug that you might think negatively affects your progress please tell us your experience. Adderall, to my knowledge, is a drug that stimulates the sympathetic nervous system. This causes your body to remain in a sort of "flight-or-fight" mode while you're on the drug. When your sympathetic nervous system is stimulated, blood is drawn away from all unnecessary organs, including your penis. Reduction in blood flow and shrinkage=sadness

ironically my libido is through the roof while on it, three times as high compared to when I am not. The bloom flow just isn't there. I'd probably have an erection 24/7 if it was.

Not suite I can answer your question but I'm on lithium for my BPD and my Sex drove is way down from where it used to be (bpd hyper sexuality is one of the symptoms) and I now never wake up with morning wood or rarely. So I didn't answer your question but I'm looking forward to the replies.

Also I smoke cigarettes that is so I hope that doesn't affect it that bad.

Ya there really isn't a question. I thought it would be good to get some ideas flowing and seeing if people have the same issues or who are experiences similar side effects. I am attending medical school next year and I also find it a interesting subject. I'm sure we can all pitch some ideas. The nicotine is a serious vasoconstrictor. The chemicals aren't speeding up growth. Thought about switching to a ecig? Also, have you talked to your doc about once daily Cialis? I am not a salesman lol, I just think the once daily when taken everyday and is in your system could really help improve your erections. The concept is that it's always in your system so it's not like you're getting a short acting pill. These things last 36 hours and you take them each day. You pretty much always have 15 to 20 mg in your system if you're taking them daily. I don't know just a thought. I think if it the lithium really starts to cause issues then it's at least there. Obviously you can't get off your meds just because of that, same reason I can't or I would have already.

what about a much larger does of L-Arginine? I think that has somewhat helped counter act for me. I'm pretty sure you can take up to 4 grams without an issue. I checked with my doc and he said its okay for me. Too recent to know for sure though. Just started in the last week.

I don't know about combining it with other drugs, but Arginine lowers blood pressure and if you already have low blood pressure, I would be careful taking it. Its makes me extremely woozy, hot, and not well if I take high doses of it. Try 2 grams to start with. Some guys aren't affected by it at all, but best to see what your tolerance level is.

Yeah, anyone not in great health should always check with there doctor first about stuff like that. Works great for me... The adderall used to give me cold feet (literally) and hand too, but the 3 grams of l-Arginine fixed that. I'm waiting to see how much it really has helped with my erections.

I have tried e cigs before, just not for me lol.I really just need to quit smoking. The funny thing is although I don't get morning wood for the most part when it comes time to have sex with my wife I'm hard as a rock lol. Bit trust me I have taken Cialis and Viagra before and boy do they work!

Bit I'm only 24, so hopefully I won't need them
