Let’s imagine a situation when you might want to mix cannabis and viagra:
You just smoked your favorite strain OR munched on some edibles. Your partner did too. You’re both in the mood for sexy time, so you decide not to delay it any further.
However… the stress of the week, maybe other medication you take, maybe just the fact that you’re tired don’t let you get an erection. You have some Viagra and some Cialis in your drawer.
It’s the most obvious solution: just take the pill. But is it safe for you? How does Cialis and Cannabis mix together? And whether you’ll get a better effect from Viagra? Let’s find out.
How Cannabis Affects Your Sexual Function
Smoking cannabis significantly reduces the time needed to have an erection and increases blood flow to the penis. The Center for Interdisciplinary Inquiry and Innovation in Sexual and Reproductive Health at the University of Chicago found that smokers waited about 7 minutes less than non-smokers to have an erection in similar circumstances.
Side Effects of Viagra and Cannabis
You definitely know what Viagra is and how it works. It’s a compound that improves your erection and helps you to keep it longer. However, the thing that most people just don’t take into account enough is the side effects. Here are some of the most important:
- Headaches;
- Flushing of the face;
- Dizziness;
- Increased heart rate.
As you can see, Viagra is not a 100% safe drug. It is for most, but not for people with preexisting conditions.
Is Cialis Safer Than Viagra When You’re High?
No, it’s not, to keep it simple. It’s basically the same.
Cialis is similar to Viagra in its effects. It has a few advantages over its counterpart like longer effects and fewer side effects. But there are also some disadvantages: for example, Cialis shouldn’t be taken after eating food. That’s because fat molecules can decrease the effectiveness of the drug.
Can You Mix Cannabis and Viagra?
Yes, you can. There are only a few side effects that you need to be aware of and if you follow the instructions, you should be fine.
Side Effects of Cannabis and Cialis Combined
These are the common side effects that can occur when you combine cannabis and Cialis:
- High (really high) blood pressure;
- irritability and sensitiveness;
- Hypertension;
- Dizziness or headache;
- Sleeplessness (for a long time, hours after you’ve smoked and took the pills).
If you take both at once, make sure to monitor your health condition and if something goes wrong, call an emergency. Chances are, however, you won’t need this step.
Can You Mix Cialis, Weed, AND Cannabis?
We’d recommend choosing just one of the two options and never taking both together, especially along with cannabis. Seriously. Here’s why:
- Cialis raises your blood pressure, even at the minimal dosage;
- Viagra raises your blood pressure, even if you take just half a pill;
- Cannabis — surprise-surprise — can also raise your blood pressure.
Can you see the dangers? Your heart will be racing and you can even faint, not to mention the real risk of lethal outcome. Even though the “boner pills” are relatively easy to get, it does NOT mean that you should take them lightly. Both Viagra and Cialis are still potent compounds, especially in a mix with cannabis.
The Final Word
As one of the Reddit users puts it:
“Weed + Viagra x Good Music = Imma Freakin’ Sex God!”.
So, if you and your partner are into that kind of activity, why don’t you just buy weed, get some Viagra, and try it out? Of course, while staying safe by following these tips:
- Make sure you have no heart-related health issues before you start;
- Your dosage of everything should be low (low-THC cannabis, small dose of Viagra or Cialis);
- You know where to call to get medical help ASAP;
- And you WILL stop in the middle of the process if you don’t feel well, as soon as you notice the first red flags.
This way — and this way only — you can mix Cannabis and Viagra or Cialis.
