Any of you diving medics out there know if there are any problems
using Viagra if you dive ( no, I don't mean when one is actaully
diving). I know it is not recommended if you are on nitrates, I just
wondered if free N2 in your pipes was inimical to Viagra use.

What kind of problems? You mean like an unexpected 'woody' while diving?

Ok I'll bite,

In basic it should have been covered.

If it effects system circulation it's a contradiction.

So what do you think?

If your doctor says it's ok, he's an a.s.

Get it in writing, so you can sue his if something goes wrong.

Don't worry I have had doctors who new sign off medical releases for
alcoholics.

Thinking it would dry them out.

Try using what God gave you between your ears not legs.

We call it thinking with the "big" head.

Other than that diving with a chubby in certain circles you'll make
you friends in others get you in trouble.

Personally if my assigned dive buddy is sporty a chubby, I'm changing
boats.
If you greeted me on my boat with a chubby, I would cancel your and
send you down to one of those French boats where all the divers wear
thongs over weight or not.

Then there are those around here that might go for it.

I think they call it the other long hose.

But I don’t belong to or hold that cert.

Why on Earth, or on Mars, for that matter, would you need to be on Viagra
during a dive?

 Perfect logic.

Puts a new definition to the term "periscopte depth".

Well at least my question wasn't as stupid as the answers I got! I am
not talking about using while actually diving and I said so. I am
talking about when there is still N2 in the bloodstream - in the no
fly time - ( Oh  God that'll bring more stupid jokes) ok , ok, I give
up.

Read up on the action of Viagra.  It's nitrates, not nitrogen itself.
If you're worried about the erection part causing localized DCI, this
would happen (if it happened) regardless of the Viagra (or Cialis, if
you want "the super weekend Viagra"  :-)

Of course, you don't want to be using any party popper while taking
Viagra.

I have a friend whose partner wound up in the ER with a BP of 65/40.
Amyl nitrate (or nitroglycerin) is contraindicated for Viagra.
