If there’s a one-bedroom topic that concerns men as much as size, it’s stamina. The Internet is filled with solutions for those who feel like they don’t have enough lasting power. But only some of them are worthwhile. How can you tell which are worth your interest and money?
According to one study that measured the performances of 1,587 men, the average time a man can maintain last is seven minutes. Men who suffer from erectile dysfunction, a diagnosable condition average two minutes. “Though not all men who want increased stamina would be diagnosed with ED, the treatment options are mostly the same.
What is Xanax?
Xanax is a brand of alprazolam, a powerful benzodiazepine that is used to treat anxiety and panic disorders by decreasing abnormal excitement in the brain. The medication comes in the form of a tablet that quickly dissolves in the mouth, an extended-release tablet, or a concentrated oral solution.
Benzodiazepines can have therapeutic anti-anxiety, anti-convulsant, muscle relaxing, and sedative effects. Xanax works by increasing the effects of a brain chemical called gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), which promotes calmness and produces a relaxed feeling. The drug decreases the level of excitement in the brain to treat anxiety and panic disorders.
Alprazolam is among the most prescribed benzodiazepine drugs in the U.S. and is among the benzodiazepines most often found in the illegal market, according to the Drug Enforcement Administration.
Xanax is often prescribed for mental health disorders related to anxiety. It can be used to treat general anxiety, panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, and phobias. It can also be used to treat seizures. For people who suffer from anxiety, it can create a sense of relief to focus on their lives without issues of anxiety or phobias plaguing them. When used as prescribed, it can calm people down and make them feel relaxed.
Xanax can also reduce physiological symptoms of anxiety and fear, such as a racing heart or hyperventilation. These drugs are so often prescribed because they work well on anxiety and they’re cheap.
However, many people use Xanax for nonmedical reasons, taking it in larger doses or more frequently than prescribed because it can create a euphoric feeling, especially at higher doses. Xanax tends to start acting quickly after a person takes it, and the euphoric effects of the drug will usually manifest themselves within about an hour after taking it.
A tendency has grown in some social circles to view Xanax, as a type of “alcohol” in pill form. It’s become socially acceptable among these groups of friends to get together and share Xanax with one another. Of the 30.5 million people who used benzos in 2015, 17.1% misused them. Misusing Xanax or combining it with other substances like alcohol can amplify its effects, but the results can also be deadly.
Along with recreational use, many people rely on Xanax to deal with issues like situational anxiety without having to commit to therapy, which can be expensive and time-consuming. Xanax is popular in America, for example, because there is a tendency for people to love things that are looked at as a quick-fix. Xanax isn’t a long-term medication, so some people “take it when they need it” for relief. The temporary relief they feel can help in a fast-paced world with constant exposure to negative world news, stressful jobs, and uncertainty.
Can Xanax make you last longer in bed?
Yes, Xanax can cause sexual problems such as delayed ejaculation, reduced sexual desire in men, and erectile dysfunction. Xanax reduces brain stimulation activity and provides calmness which most times lead to fatigue, somnolence (drowsiness), muscle relaxation, and lower energy levels that could impair your energy levels and decrease your sex drive and stamina.
Studies have shown that a 2.5 mg dose of Xanax can trigger anorgasmia (regular difficulty reaching orgasm after ample sexual stimulation) within 1 week resolved with reduced dosing.
Xanax is not a treatment for erectile dysfunction, but if your ED is anxiety or depression-induced, taking Xanax may actually help resolve it.
In general, treatment for ED will depend on the underlying cause. You may need to use a combination of treatments, including medication or talk therapy. Your doctor may prescribe medication to help you manage the symptoms of ED. You may need to try several medications before you find one that works
Can I take Xanax and Viagra together?
Yes, studies have shown that Xanax and Viagra can be taken together as there is no known interaction between them. However, Viagra may reduce the metabolism of Xanax and increase the risk of unwanted side effects. Discuss with your doctor or health care provider before taking Xanax and Viagra together.
