Tadalafil Sildenafil Sleep apnea.

[Rolls roydz]

Hello guys.

There seems to be a strong correlation between sleep apnea and PDE5 drugs. I can see some literature about it but I wanted real life experiences from you guys.

I want to rule out if I am very sensitive to this or if it is rather very common.

Please share your experiences.

Thank you.

My diagnosis fell 3 events short of qualifying for true "sleep apnea". But Ive noticed the snoring and fatigue/ headaches are usually more notable in the mornings after full pd5 dosages

My nose becomes plugged when I use cialis.

My nose becomes plugged when I use cialis.

I found I had this problem when I took 20mg before sex but switched to daily 10mg doses before workouts and don't have that issue. It doesnt seem to bother my sleep apnea this way either. also the noted bonus of allway being ready for sex

Hey @Rolls roydz - Most PDE5 cause flushing / nasal congestion. I take generic Dristan when I take them(the long lasting 12 hour kind). I don't have blood circulation issues or a medical reason for using them, but they are fun. If taking test and a DHT drug, I don't but it is fun to cork the bat lol. If I don't take generic dristan type medication at the same time, I would be a mouth breather during sex.

I have read (straight from the all-knowing Google) if you have severe sleep apnea and take these meds, it can causea respiratory disturbances and desaturation events, but not vice-versa. Have you read the use of these meds can cause sleep apnea?
Mine is 100% because I gained size and have a very large neck. it is annoying.
Vitalair and other similar companies are going to do well in coming years if they cause sleep apnea, it amazed me how many guys I talk to who are younger as in 18-25 take PDE5 drugs everytime they have sex. They used it / liked it and now claim they can't without it. I suspect that is 100% psychological.
Interesting - if you read they can cause permanent sleep apnea even with the short half life PDE5's, please post the link.

I have definitely noticed a correlation between my Cialis/Viagra use and my sleep. If I happen to get the congestion sometimes associated with them it's a bad night, even with the CPAP on. Nothing quite like trying to sleep with a mask on your face blowing air up your nose when you can only breathe out of one side.

I've had the young kids at work ask me about it. I tell them they don't need it at their age, plus they will wreck themselves. Once they get the super boner, then a normal boner will never be the same, so wait till they are 40.

My nose becomes plugged when I use cialis.

yup... me too... my sinuss/nose get irrated, inflammed, itchy etc to the point I can't wear my sleep appnea mask because my nose is too clogged

cialis is much worse for it than viagra for me.

I'm ok if I only use 5 mg. So when I know I'll be banging the wife, I take 5 mg that night then 5 mg in the morning and its not too bad.
If I use flonase or Otrivin it lessens it.

I have SEVERE sleep apnea. Apnea scores are not impacted if I take the 2.5 or 5 mg pharma Cialis. With 25mg Viagra or 20 mg Cialis I get severely stuffy for a couple hours, but if I do a sinus rinse before bed I’m good and it doesn’t impact my apnea scores.
