Patient Experiences with Chewable ED Medications

BlueChew’s medications are available only via prescription by one of BlueChew’s affiliated medical professionals. If you take certain medications already or have underlying cardiovascular conditions, prescription ED medications can be downright dangerous to you.

• Sildenafil is part of a class of drugs called phosphodiesterase inhibitors.
• Chewing sildenafil tablets can potentially cause burns or irritation.
• Always follow your doctor’s instructions for sildenafil dosage.
• Sildenafil may cause a drop in blood pressure in some users.
• Use sildenafil only under medical supervision.
• Do not use sildenafil if you are taking certain alpha-blockers.
• Chewing sildenafil is not a recommended administration route.
• Keep track of sexual activity and medication effects.
• Regular check-ups are advised when using sildenafil long-term.

For instance, if you take a nitrate-containing medication (like nitroglycerin), that is a contraindication to using PDE5 inhibitors like sildenafil, tadalafil, and vardenafil. Using both can cause possibly deadly low blood pressure (hypotension).35 If you have preexisting hypotension or take medications like alpha-blockers to treat high blood pressure, the prescribing doctor would need to decide whether it’s safe for you to take PDE5 inhibitors. Doing so may also cause dangerously low blood pressure, symptoms of which can include: But hypotension doesn't always cause noticeable symptoms, despite the risks to your health.

Those with chronic kidney disease may not be suitable candidates for prescription ED medication, though the prescribing medical professional will be able to determine whether your circumstances contraindicate using them. All of this underscores the importance of being thorough in your description of medications and existing health conditions when you consult with the doctor — something perhaps even more important in an online consultation scenario. Prescribing medical professionals will be able to determine whether you’re a safe candidate for the treatments that BlueChew offers, but only if they have enough information about your underlying health and current use of medications.

• Sildenafil should not be used with nitrates due to dangerous interactions.
• Chewing sildenafil can lead to inconsistent blood levels.
• Overusing sildenafil can cause priapism or prolonged erections.
• Be cautious about using sildenafil if you have heart problems.
• Sildenafil may cause side effects like headaches or flushing.
• Chewing sildenafil does not improve its therapeutic effect.
• Always store sildenafil out of reach of children.
• Check with your healthcare provider if unsure about dose or form.
• Do not combine sildenafil with other ED medications without guidance.

Your likelihood of experiencing side effects may be higher or lower depending on differences in the dosage of the active ingredients.

Studies examining the effectiveness and safety of tadalafil, sildenafil, and vardenafil at different dosages reveal that side effects are more common at higher doses.3 Though studies are slightly mixed in terms of the linear effect of dosage on the likelihood of experiencing side effects, in one study, the group of participants taking 5mg of daily tadalafil experienced back pain more often than the group taking 2.5mg of daily tadalafil.19 Another study comparing 5mg and 10mg daily dosage efficacy and tolerance revealed that the 10mg/day test group experienced side effects at a higher rate than the 5mg/day group.24 Research suggests that the likelihood of experiencing side effects increases as dosage increases.22 For instance, a study of 256 sildenafil users at three different strengths (50mg, 100mg, 150mg) found that the incidence of side effects increased at each dosage level.20 Specifically, 20% experienced a side effect at 50mg, while 36% and 63% experienced one at 100mg and 150mg, respectively. Clinical trials in which participants used doses of vardenafil ranging from 5mg to 40mg showed that side effect prevalence was dose-dependent.25 Given that dosage appears to play a direct role in the likelihood of side effects — with higher doses increasing the chances of side effects — what does this mean for BlueChew side effects in particular?

About the Company

Given that some side effects are universal among PDE5 medications, while others are unique to one or a couple of them, here is a handy chart that hopefully enables easier comparison of the likeliest possible side effects: When it comes to likelihood, numerous studies into these drugs broadly agree that: Most men won’t experience anything beyond mild side effects. Side effects are more likely to occur at higher doses. One large study conducted in 2009 compared the frequency and duration of various side effects caused by sildenafil, vardenafil, and tadalafil among a group of over 400 men who were given the maximum doses of one of those three drugs. The chart below shows the rates of specific side effects experienced with each drug at a maximum dose. The vast majority of participants didn’t wish to discontinue the medications.

Patient resources

Between one third and one half of participants experienced side effects, depending on the medication (with vardenafil users experiencing side effects 33% of the time, sildenafil users experiencing them 43% of the time, and tadalafil users experiencing them 46% of the time). When they occurred, side effects for tadalafil users tended to last longer than other drugs. It’s important to remember that this was a study of what might happen at the maximum dosage levels, whereas BlueChew medications are not offered at these maximum levels. Other studies looking at ranges of doses show that rates of side effects tend to increase at higher dosage levels (as described earlier) and that doses more akin to what BlueChew provides tend to yield lower rates of side effects. A 2006 review of clinical evidence — after sildenafil had been on the market for eight years — showed this rate of side effects when a broad spectrum of dosage levels was taken into consideration:22 Other reviews of clinical practice show that the rate of side effects for sildenafil at 50mg (a rate of 20%) is about one-third the rate seen at 150mg.20 And meanwhile, several double-blind studies of vardenafil showed that vardenafil, at doses closer to BlueChew’s, does not bring a risk of back pain (which is consistent with the fact that it doesn’t inhibit PDE11 as tadalafil does).21 In order to formulate its chewable meds, BlueChew includes a short list of inactive ingredients as well.

Here’s a quick comparison of BlueChew’s dosages and those of its competitors. And note: competitors Hims and Roman both offer brand-name Viagra and Cialis in addition to the compounded versions whose doses you’ll find in the chart below. 8.5mg or 11.2mg for either How sildenafil premature ejaculation could this factor into your decision-making and comfort levels when it comes to risk of side effects? Let’s break it down further by medication. With a strength of 30mg or 45mg, BlueChew’s compounded sildenafil could be a solid choice if you’re hoping to start at a relatively modest strength and minimize your risk of side effects. Branded Viagra dosage comes in 25mg increments (e.g., 25mg, 50mg, 100mg), with many doctors starting patients at 50mg. If the 30mg BlueChew sildenafil works for you, then you may keep your likelihood of experiencing side effects close to a minimum from day one. Taking a look at other online competitors like Hims and Roman, for instance, your lowest-dose options will be tablets (not chews) from those companies. Roman’s generic sildenafil doses start at 25mg, but Hims sildenafil doses start at 20mg and increase in 20mg increments up to 100mg.

Potential side effects of sildenafil

With branded Viagra, Hims and Roman tablets both start at 25mg. The lowest doses of any of those tablet options could make your chances of side effects potentially even lower, but if you want a chewable medication that doesn’t require a handy glass of water, those other two companies only offer more aggressive multi-medication treatments involving higher doses of sildenafil with robust dosages of tadalafil. BlueChew’s lowest-dose chewables are inherently less likely to cause side effects than the multi-medication chewables of those companies. The risk of side effects posed by BlueChew tadalafil, relative to other tadalafil options, depends on the form you want (compounded chewable vs. tablet you swallow) and the type of prescription you want (as-needed vs.

daily). Cialis for daily use commonly comes in tablets of 2.5mg or 5mg, while as-needed tablets range from 5mg to 20mg. BlueChew’s as-needed tadalafil, by contrast, comes in either 6mg or 9mg chews — considerably lower than many typical as-needed Cialis prescriptions would be. If one of BlueChew’s doses works for you, research suggests that it would generally carry a lower risk of experiencing side effects compared to those common, higher doses. Meanwhile, Hims’ as-needed tadalafil chews are stronger than BlueChew’s, at 11.2mg. With branded Viagra, Hims and Roman tablets both start at 25mg. The lowest doses of any of those tablet options could make your chances of side effects potentially even lower, but if you want a chewable medication that doesn’t require a handy glass of water, those other two companies only offer more aggressive multi-medication treatments involving higher doses of sildenafil with robust dosages of tadalafil.

But its as-needed tablets, available as low as 5mg/dose, could be even better for avoiding side effects. In contrast with its as-needed doses, BlueChew’s daily sildenafil citrate tablets for female tadalafil is stronger than many daily Cialis dosages, at 9mg per day. That’s the only strength available from BlueChew at this time, and its stronger dose means you may have a higher chance of experiencing tadalafil’s side effects with daily BlueChew than you would with a daily prescription of the medication elsewhere. Hims offers daily tadalafil at 2.5mg or 5mg strengths in tablet form, which are very commonly prescribed strengths. And both Hims and Roman have slightly weaker daily tadalafil chewables than BlueChew, at 8.5mg and 7mg, respectively.

Other forms of sildenafil can work under the tongue

For compounded vardenafil delivered to your door, BlueChew’s dosage at this time makes it a good choice to keep your risk of side effects at a minimum. Doctors commonly start patients at 10mg of vardenafil and then adjust up to 20mg or reduce to 5mg depending on effectiveness or adverse effects.21 At 8mg, BlueChew’s vardenafil strength would, if anything, pose less risk of side effects than the common 10mg starting dose. However, since there’s no other strength available at BlueChew, you’d need to seek a lower strength elsewhere if you do experience unacceptable side effects from BlueChew vardenafil. It’s still a safer choice than Hims vardenafil, though, which starts at 11.2mg and also has no lower available strength. (Roman doesn’t offer vardenafil at all at this time.) Ultimately, from strictly a safety standpoint, BlueChew strikes us as a good starting place for people new to PDE5 medications, particularly when exploring the following options: We’ve compared ED treatment options for years to help men decide, and we draw this conclusion for a few compelling reasons: The dosages for each of these scenarios are either below or very close to the common entry points in terms of strength, which helps you keep your risk of side effects relatively low.

If the lower dose works for you, that’s excellent; generally, the best dose of any prescription is going to be the lowest effective dose. BlueChew offers a level of convenience rivaled only by competing online providers — and only if they are providing compounded versions that don’t require a glass of water.
