While some young men are reporting ED symptoms, the condition is a common consequence of aging. About 40% of men in their 40s experience ED, and this rate increases by 10% with each additional decade of life. The danger is when young men like Jared are not prescribed Cialis by a doctor and buy it online from illegal, unregulated labs that manufacture steroids and offer a sort of one-stop shop for performance-enhancing drugs. Chase takes 5 milligrams of Cialis twice a week, obtained online and labelled as a research chemical, and he’s only 19.
“It definitely provides more pump than any supplement for the gym,” he says. “I have never had ED or any problems of that sort.” Interestingly, Chase describes his use as only as needed, but the need is to perform in the gym, not the bedroom. “I don’t want to develop a tolerance for it or have it affect my blood pressure regularly.”
The selective caution of microdosing medication from unregulated labs is troubling to doctors, who strongly advise against it. “Getting medications online is a crapshoot,” Brandeis warns. “Many online pharmacies are profit-motivated and shady.” Beyond ensuring the drug is safe, it’s essential to see a doctor to rule out underlying cardiovascular conditions. Cialis can have cardiovascular benefits, but for men with low blood pressure or a history of stroke or heart attack, lowering their blood pressure further can be dangerous. Doctors also inform guys about potentially harmful drug interactions, such as combining Cialis with certain pre-workout products that boost nitric oxide, like L-citrulline or stimulants like DMAA.
“Combining Cialis with pre-workout supplements carries risks, mainly due to additive effects on blood pressure and blood flow,” Brandeis notes. The combination can lead to, again, low blood pressure, as well as vision and hearing problems, chest pain, rapid heart rate, and other health issues. Bodybuilders have been rumoured to end up in cardiac arrest from the combination.
