Can Viagra, Levitra or Cialis lead to the addiction?

All the males, who have ever had a need to consume any sexual potency stimulators, sooner or later ask a question: Can Viagra, Levitra or Cialis lead to the addiction? It concerns not only the medicines, which we have mentioned but all the other medicines for the sexual potency, available on the market. The consumers have the same question. That’s why we should give a full answer to it.

Undoubtedly, it is a myth because there is no approved information with the scientific ground concerning the addiction to Viagra or other medicines of the same action. In order to give the arguments to this statement, it is required understanding the principles of the action of these drugs.

As we all know, Sildenafil citrate, which is an active component of Viagra, is the substance, which helps treat the erectile dysfunction and the weak potency. It is usually produced in the form of pills of the blue color. Sildenafil has positive feedback because of the impressive results after its consumption. It really helps fight against sexual problems and impotence. Many medicines are manufactured with Sildenafil as the primary active component, and they have the same action as Viagra. Most of them are produced by the companies from India. It concerns Tadalafil (Cialis) and Vardenafil (Levitra).

According to the instructions of the above-described medicines, the active component is able to restore the erection guaranteeing a natural response to the sexual stimulation. The physiological mechanism of the erectile function is based on the release of the nitrogen oxide in the cavernous bodies of the penis during the sexual arousal.

Thus, the medical dependence on Levitra, Viagra or Cialis does not exist because these medicines influence only the blood circulation and not the receptors located in the brain, where the processes accompanying the dependence, tolerance, and physical addiction take place. The situation with the addiction can occur with such medicines as antidepressants, painkillers, and psycholeptics, which contain narcotic and other components with the similar action. The sales and application of the narcotic medicines are under the strongest control of the law. It is impossible to find them in the free sale. You can buy them neither in the pharmacy supermarkets nor online. However, you can easily find plenty of drugs for treating the erectile dysfunction. To sum it up, we can make a conclusion that Viagra, Levitra or Cialis cannot provoke any physical dependence.

Lots of experiments and scientific research has noticed the absence of the addiction development after the consumption of Sildenafil, Tadalafil, and Vardenafil. Besides, these medications have very few side effects and strong contra-indications. Nevertheless, the manufacturers have not paid enough attention to the fact that besides the physiological dependence, the psychological one might develop in particular cases.

In other words, the man, who has been taking these medications for a long time, can become dependent on a psychological level. This is a serious problem. However, it can be treated with the help of the consultations of a qualified psychologist. To better understand the situation, the American medical specialists have carried out a research. They have interviewed 150 men, who have taken Viagra, and found out that at the beginning of consumption, the dosage of 25-100 mg has been enough for them. After half a year, the dosage has increased by 50 mg. At the same time, the scientists have not managed to find the connection between the frequency of consumption and the dosage increase. That’s why if you take the medicines for the potency, it is utterly important to select the dosage individually and never exceed the recommended norm.

There is data, according to which the people, who think they are dependent on Levitra and are sure they take the stimulator, have good erection taking the placebo. The research proves that Levitra never leads to the addiction as well as all the other analogs of the medications for the sexual potency.
