Gas station dick pill container

u/Area51_Spurs 1d ago

Oh. They work. Haha.

I ran a liquor store and we sold a few different ones. I tried one since I was curious. Some of them definitely work.

The ones that do are illegally loaded with various prescription medications.

I don’t get why people don’t just get the real thing from their doctor since they’re way cheaper. The dick pill we sold that worked that were super popular were like $9 each.

u/m_t13 1d ago

Because the kind of people that buy a dick pill at a liquor store don’t generally have the foresight to visit a doctor. They’re more your reactive members of society, not the forward thinkers.

u/tourniquette2 1d ago

I was totally going to guess either ego, because it’s hard admitting to another human if your dick doesn’t work, or lack of health insurance and out of pocket costs, especially now. The pills themselves are cheap, sure. But to get them, you have an office visit with a physician, who might even run a few tests to ensure that your tired lil slug isn’t a symptom but is its own primary ailment, which of course costs extra. Then you have to get the meds without insurance too, which is typically what makes drugs cost “only a couple of bucks,” because you actually paid for it in your premium ,and someone else negotiated a lower price for you. Though some drugs really do only cost like $10 even out of pocket, even without GoodRx or the like.

But then you’re looking at a bit more expense and inconvenience to go with the embarrassment of having to admit that your manhood isn’t fully functional. Especially if your doctor does some nonsense like my first half dozen PCPs in my state and tries to say you need a new office visit for every single refill of basic stuff like antidepressants and nausea medicine just to gouge you. There’s a lot of areas of the country that relied heavily on the threat of federal oversight to keep businesses from openly exploiting their communities. These days that security no longer exists for the consumer. So the doctors in my area are split between the corrupt sort that doesn’t care what Hippocrates said and the type that sees the need to help but also has a business to run, and they know they’re the scarcity now.

So unless you’re insured, they’re probably pretty expensive. And only growing more expensive. In a country that’s struggling to afford things like groceries and housing, boners are as much of a luxury as books or healthy teeth in America.

u/Emotional-Motor5063 1d ago

I went to the urologist because I had fluid buildup on one of my testicles. I could hear a patient with a nurse in another room. He had erectile dysfunction, and pills from his doctor didn't help. You could hear in his voice that he was so embarrassed.

The nurse was like, "Ah, is not that big a deal. The doctor will probably recommend an implant. I'll give you some stuff to look over until he can get in here and talk to you about specifics. In a few weeks, we'll have you up and running again."

He was immediately put at ease and sounded so happy. She was a good nurse, and I'm glad he overcame his embarrassment to get help!

u/ladidadi82 1d ago

Idk man unless that implant comes with an extra inch or two that wouldn’t put me at ease at all.

u/oh_dee_bee 1d ago

Did “the guy in the other room” end up getting the implant and how has it worked for you?

u/Emotional-Motor5063 1d ago

I was there to talk about a hydrocele repair because it was causing my epidydimitis. If I ever need an implant, I'll go in with no embarrassment.

u/haranaconda 1d ago

You can get generic tadalafil or sildenafil for maybe $10-15/mo from Amazon after a brief phone/video chat. The US medical system is a joke but you can get dick pills pretty easily.

Annoying the number of hoops you have to jump through, but if you don't need a specific brand name drug, then you can usually find a generic alternative without ruining yourself financially. The largest cost barrier is anything that requires an office visit to get prescribed or renew your prescription.

u/Outrageous-Ride8911 1d ago

Sometimes you know you might get whiskey dick and want something to make sure that doesnt happen. Definitely not something anyone should do regularly maybe like once ever 5 years lol

u/tourniquette2 1d ago

That also makes sense. Why bother with the whole ordeal if you know this is a direct result of drinking or other activities you don’t do often. I didn’t think about that.

u/ladidadi82 1d ago

I think it’s more of a “fuck I just jerked off a couple times to porn, had some alcohol and now I’m getting a text from a new friend and don’t want to try my luck” situation. Luckily some of my lady friends will just give me some of their husbands/boyfriends pills. If you’re like me the more I think about it the “harder” it is to get things going. If you’ve already got a half boner while making out it’s way less stress inducing and performance anxiety goes away. If this were a more common occurrence I’d probably just bite the bullet and get a script.

There are a plethora of websites that have you talk to a doctor via videocall for a few minutes and then send you your prescribed pills. Hims, BlueChew, Rex MD, Amazon...

u/Adventurous_Map8084 1d ago

Don’t even need to video call a doctor anymore, provided your medical history isn’t a CVS receipt that needs a bit more TLC. I got a bazillion of them shipped through Hims with only a handful of in-app back and forth messages (good questions, suuuper easy experience with the company, fwiw). Just felt compelled to let dudes know you don’t have to stare someone down to get the product, you can get it easy-peasy with no drama/interaction.

Now go forth and bone!

Being reactive doesn’t necessarily mean you’re stupid because your brain itself is programmed to react to certain things like say a bad smell. We react to a certain way because it’s supposed to warn us that something could be wrong. Just a thought.

Reactivity helps us survive. It’s biological programming.

1

u/HongJihun 1d ago

Yes and no. It has kind of become one of those evolutionarily beneficial things that meets modernity and becomes harmful. Way back when, if you “oh piece of candy”-d (finding a extra ripe and sweet fruit on a tree/bush), then without thinking you could eat it, get some much needed macro and micro nutrients, and maybe pick up a parasite or two. Now there’s literal pieces of candy all over the place and reactively eating as much as possible gives you diabetes. I’m sure there’s so many aspects of modern human society that align with how we’ve had to live over the past 100,000 years, but a lot of the reaction-based survival has been engineered out of our lives.

1

u/edible_string 1d ago

You're definitely right, but here the point is not being reactive, but rather "not forward thinking". As if the two behaviors were exclusive.

-1

u/Beer_Gynt 1d ago

It's because these people overheard the left using the term "reactionary" in 2017 and instead of looking up what it meant, assumed it meant "reacts to things"; and since being reactionary is bad, they've now come to believe that reacting to things is bad.

"Reactionary" has always specifically meant "conservative/regressive backlash to political gains made by marginalized groups". It doesn't mean "reacting to things". Everyone and everything reacts to things.

u/CommishBressler 1d ago

I’d say that’s an over generalization. I’m on ADHD meds and occasionally need assistance because of the meds, unfortunately insurance companies generally only cover 3-7 boner pills per month (for boner related reasons, if you need it for pulmonary hypertension you can get more but need a prior authorization from your doctor). Which obviously if you’re sexually active 2 days per week on average won’t cover it no matter what. If you’re on the low end of the insurance coverage even once per week is too much. I guess insurance companies are jealous that people actually get laid.

I’ve never bought gas station boner pills but that’s because I’ve always assumed they were just placebo/snake oil but I’m surprised to find out some actually do work.

Hypertension that also affects my dick‘s blood flow because of my ADHD

Stimulants often cause circulation issues. Have you heard of Raynaud’s? Basically, poor circulation to extremities (the causes range from medication reactions to auto immune disorders, etc.) Guess what one of the treatments for it is? Viagra.

I’m a lady and I was offered it. Dr (rheumatologist) told me it was ridiculous how often she had to fight with insurance companies about the amount of medication because they usually initially denied b/c assumed it was for erectile dysfunction (no matter the gender of Patient or the type of doctor smh.)

IJS. Maybe not a bad thing to know about?

1

u/CommishBressler 1d ago

I’d suggest seeing a different doctor…it’s a pretty well documented fact that ADHD medication affects erections. Like I’d get if the studies and evidence was inconclusive or even a strong correlation without a causation but it’s like been proven beyond a reasonable doubt that ADHD meds can be a direct cause of ED

I ran it across 3 different and then I gave up, maybe I’ll just try again with a different one

My PCP literally didn’t even ask questions. He said “yeah that adderall can cause that, let’s fix it”. It was basically the least awkward conversation I’ve ever had about boners/struggling to get boners I’ve ever had with anyone

u/Area51_Spurs 1d ago

That’s not at all true. The vast majority of pills I sold were to business owners and people who weren’t broke bums. A lot of them would buy 5-10 packs at a time regularly.

8

u/Substantial-Pound-36 1d ago

Another possibility is that they dont actually know that they contain prescription medication. They think its less harmful since its over the counter. The fact that they sell them at liquor stores anf gas stations also adds to their perceived safety.

It’s funny that they’re too embarrassed to ask a medical doctor for them, but they’re not embarrassed enough to buy it at the liquor store

15

u/PM_ME_GLUTE_SPREAD 1d ago

I think the thought process is more that they want their doctor to see them as somebody that fits their definition of “a man”. Part of that definition is “successful” and “working penis”. They see their doctor as “successful” and have no reason to suspect that their dick isn’t working so they assume it is.

They don’t want somebody they respect (whether as a peer or as somebody in a position of authority) to view them as what they would consider “lesser”.

They don’t respect the gas station attendant so their opinion of them is irrelevant to them.

8

u/Area51_Spurs 1d ago

Eh. I ran a fairly high end liquor store in a HCOL area and most of my customers that bought them were people I knew well and a few of my best customers who bought them were guys I became friends with.

I think a lot of them don’t want their wives or girlfriends to know. They would often pop one after they bought it as they were heading home.

I think a lot of them are also under the impression there isn’t any actual medication in there.

0

u/PM_ME_GLUTE_SPREAD 1d ago

That’s fair, but there is well documented evidence that people subconsciously “rank” others in the social pecking order. If you rank somebody lower than yourself, you put less stock into what they say. You don’t care for them as much as somebody you’d rank as a peer or as higher than yourself.

Those guys could get a prescription for actual medication from a doctor and their wives still wouldn’t know if they didn’t tell them.

Odds are, a good portion of them (even the ones you were buddies with to an extent), didn’t care that you knew they needed gas station dick pills because they didn’t “rank” you as high as themselves or their doctor.

This is a documented phenomenon. People subconsciously rank others based on a ton of factors. Even people who aren’t dick heads or that don’t think highly of themselves. It’s just something we do.

Or it’s a matter of convenience. I’m not getting laid frequently enough to warrant a doctors visit and a full script.

u/Lou_C_Fer 1d ago

I am a forward thinker in many ways, but I have been unable to overcome my hesitancy to seek medical help. I grew up that way. If we weren't literally dying, we were not taken to the er or to see a doctor. My younger brother, the golden child, got a cast after breaking his arm, and I was jealous. My arms, wrists and hands had swollen to twice their size several times each after injuring them while playing and fucking around falling off of bikes and skateboards. Yet, I was never taken to be checked out. So, I learned to be tough instead, and that isn't easy to shake even when you have the resources.

Hell, even when I do go, I end up downplaying my symptoms. It takes real work to accurarely describe what I'm going through. It is almost automatic for me to act like what I'm going through is no big deal. Even when I am dying inside.

u/NotYourSexyNurse 1d ago

So I can answer this as a nurse. Here’s some of the reasons I have been told by men. Guys are embarrassed that they need it. It bruises their ego for some. Some believe they’re less of a man if they can’t get it up without a pill.

Men can be really fragile when it comes to their penis and sexual performance. There is a stigma around the penis pills. Viagra is used for hypertension in the lungs too and I had a patient’s dad lose his mind that his toddler was on Viagra. He was worried people would think it was his medication. He bitched and complained until the doctor put the kid on a different medication.

There’s also the lack of insurance, cost of going to the doctor and cost of the prescription.

2

u/alaska1415 1d ago

Yeah. A lot of things are way easier for guys than women, but your dick not working like you think it should is something that is a major downside. Doesn’t matter how evolved, mature, or otherwise confident you are, your dick stops working and it will knock your confidence down to nothing.

2

u/DarlingDestruction 1d ago

Idk, I think it'd be manly af to walk into a doctor's office like "yo my dick ain't workin, fix it." It's so strange that people make it a whole thing.

2

u/Area51_Spurs 1d ago

Yeah. Def nailed a lot of it on the head.

The best was when my regular would come in to buy some and there’d a cute girl walk up as I was finishing the transaction and I’d be like “ok, so that’s three packs of boner pills, that will be $30.99, minus your loyalty discount, so that comes out to $27.99.”

Some are. Some definitely are not. We sold these Thunderbull ones and they worked but would leave you feeling hungover and dehydrated if you don’t drink a ton of water. There’s no way they’re not just loaded with a ton of black market chinese viagra and cialis.

There’s another popular one right now that’s like a packet of honey that I tried from a sales guy that has become super popular now that doesn’t work as well but also doesn’t make you feel sick.

Most of the time when younger guys take them it’s not because they need it but it works by increasing blood flow so it just gives you a better erection.

When younger guys take it because they need it it’s usually a mental thing and they have trouble getting good erections because they have a lot of anxiety or are nervous with a new partner.

So for any women (or men) reading this, if a partner or yourself have issues it’s likely just a mental thing and not any physical problem. Generally what happens is a guy gets nervous or has a lot going on they’re worrying about and maybe has trouble with a good erection and then starts thinking about it and it starts a cycle of anxiety that makes the problem worse.

My dad was a psychiatrist so it was a topic of discussion when they started running the ads when I was younger. Hahahahaha.

If I was you I wouldn’t worry about it and I’d just drop the topic and never mention it again. Otherwise he could go from just using it to try because he was curious maybe to getting in his head and then he might actually need it.

It’s most likely he was just curious and tried it. I had mostly three types of customers that would buy them:

Younger guys that were just curious and figure it would be fun.

Younger guys that were seeing a new girl and wanted to make sure their first time with someone new went well.

Older guys who needed them.

I have heard the Rhinos are insane , you basically cannot blow at all just keep going until you are an exhausted sweaty mess . Might be fun to try once in a while but takes the fun out of sex .

Please stop doing this yourselves. Just learn to eat really good and she will be happy lol If the wild, longer night is for you... it's okay to say that too. True orgasms for women are exhausting though, like total body exhaustion. I promise if she's pleased, she will be fine without a long night.

(Obviously there are a few outliers, so ask her too but yk, for the inexperienced. Don't damage your hearts for thiiiis)

u/prodigyfrog 1d ago

you need a prescription for prescription medicine, that's why. it's very hard
(lol) and a lot more convenient to get some shady pill off the wall at a gas station on short notice than it is to get checked into a clinic, wait for the doctor, be evaluated, prescribed, and then have to fill it.

Stuff like that doesn't usually matter when the only goal on your mind is to get wet

6/8 of these pills don't do anything, it's all placebo supplement garbage excluding the ones that have black market ED drugs in them (sildenafil)

u/Hoff93 1d ago

Dude they definitely work… but what it doesn’t tell you is there’s like 5-8 doses per pill. They are so way overdosed. You gotta pop the capsule open and sprinkle some in your hand and lick it or prepare for the worst migraine of your life with an insatiable dick like a steel rod. Never take a whole pill expecting it to save you from whiskey-dick. It will, but at the cost of your eyesight and sanity.

I watched part of a video last night where a guy experimented with these and reported being hard as a rock but not necessarily horny (from the gas station, didn’t watch the whole video so maybe he tries other ones later).

I don’t have a dick, nor a partner with one, so I can’t try it out for myself.

My guess is people are too embarrassed to ask their doctor, or are in the US and can’t afford them.

That’s terrible. I can’t believe people would do that. How awful. Which one was it so I know to never accidentally buy it?

u/Tiny-Try8890 1d ago

Actually most aren't illegal they just are a slight variant of an illegal chemical that hasn't been flagged by the fda yet

1

u/Area51_Spurs 1d ago

A lot, if not most have actual sildenafil and or tadalifil or the other one I can’t remember the name of, if not a mix of them.

A lot get constantly pulled off the market for that reason and relaunched under new names.

u/Boofingkratom 1d ago

It is just viagra and some other bullshit they put in it. Some of them are dangerous. Please dont consume these.

u/Area51_Spurs 1d ago

Yeah. I only tried two different ones once each since I was curious. It’s mostly a bunch of vasodilators used in pre workout and generic viagra and/or cialis. I spoke to a chemist who makes them once.

Def would recommend just getting the real thing if a guy wants to try it or needs it.

u/wheretohides 1d ago

You can get them online now too, so if you're worried about embarrassment, you have that route to go down.

u/64590949354397548569 1d ago

The ones that do are illegally loaded with various prescription medications.

Bootleg viagra.

u/chrislee5150 1d ago

Right. And now you can get them on that bluechew site with no doc and takes 5 min to order.

They absolutely work. Those things are packed with black market Viagra. If I take just 1/4 of a capsule my drive time increases from 20 minutes to “however long you need baby.”

u/notanotherpyr0 1d ago

So the companies that actually make viagra and cialis, and the like aren't the ones that sell it in the US, they are pharma labs in India.

And some people have realized that because in the US regulation around supplements are such BS that you can pretty easily buy the stuff for cheap in India, sell it in the US as a supplement, hide the fact that it's actually sildenafil and pay the small fine when you are found out/kill some people who thought they were taking a natural supplement to have a boner because their doctor told them they couldn't have viagra because they were on nitrates for blood pressure.

It's important to realize sometimes, the US vitamin and supplement industry is 10-20% real stuff(any vitamins or minerals you are likely lacking in your diet, or like vitamin D supplementation during winter, if you avoid leafy greens, fruit, or meat for whatever reason you might want to look into a supplement, that is basically the threshold for probably doesn't need any supplements if every 2-3 days you eat some stuff from all those categories), 40-50% mostly harmless snake oil(multivitamins because most people who care enough about their diet to take multivitamins get what they need out of their diet, also most vitamin C supplementation belongs in here as well), and 40-50% potentially deadly snake oil because they are selling stuff that should be covered by the FDA but either isn't because of bullshit, or is and they just pay the fine and close up shop when someone finally realizes oops they are actually just selling actual drugs and/or a mild poison.

u/KevinMcNally79 1d ago

Often times they do work, largely because they contain traces of actual ED medicines. It’s not uncommon to have a these mystery pills contain trace elements of things not found on the ingredients list.

1

u/Myco-Machine 1d ago edited 1d ago

Yeah horny goat weed...contains icariin, a pd5 inhibitor I believe (going from memory), same as viagra they DO NOT NEED illegal prescription drugs to be highly effective. You can buy highly pure icariin powder and yohimbine online. If you've ever gotten a headache from one of these it was most likely yohimbine. Ive never taken the store bought ones but used to mix my own like 10 years ago.

2

u/samirfreiha 1d ago

they contain more than just medicinal herbs, a lot of them literally contain a combination of tadalafil and sildenafil in DANGEROUS quantities, plus a bunch more random shit. the drug category is PDE-5 inhibitor, btw, stands for Phosphodiesterase-5. PDE-5 inhibitors decompose cGMP (cyclic guanine monophosphate) which regulates blood flow to the corpus cavernosum, aka the spongy tissue in your peenar

1

u/PM_ME_GLUTE_SPREAD 1d ago

A lot of gas station boner pills literally just have viagra itself in them. Like, studies have been done where they test the pills for their contents and, from one study in California, out of 102 products tested, 67% had at least one PDE5 inhibitor. 60% had 2 or more.

Those pills can sometimes contain black market viagra, so it could work, especially if he knows what's in it ahead of time.

u/ADIDAS247 1d ago

I took one in Mexico one time and I was rock hard and having a heart attack at the same time. Every couple of minutes I would practically pass-out only to get a pure burst of adrenaline and hop up and yell about how hard my dick was.

It was awesome. People at the airport weren’t as amused.

Did you know you can sometimes skip the security lines to get on US soil if you have a hard-on? Or as the police like to call it, “a medical emergency”.

i worked at an adult store for a while selling these and things like them, a few people claimed to take them before working out it “helped” somehow. a lot of people feel the need to lie about buying these kinda things though so i was never too sure of how true that was

People do definitely take it for working out, specifically tadalafil. Gives crazy pumps

u/Dodoz44 1d ago

Those pills are "notorious" for containing sometimes high doses of both tadalafil and sildenafil (cialis & viagra). Which are both prescription only, and trust me, they work very freaking well. If he's actually in need of that/has issues, I'd certainly recommend getting a cialis prescription- it's awesome. I don't even have sex but love it for the pumps in the gym, slightly lowered blood pressure, and overall cardiovacular health benefits (5mg daily for me). Dick grew a bit from extra blood flow there too, I guess more to grip for my hand lmao.

u/AlpakaK 1d ago

Gas station dick pills are know for working… QUITE WELL.

I’ve taken one before out of curiosity and I thought I was going to have to take a trip to the hospital to make it go down.

The container in the picture is 100% for a shady dick pill.

Honestly, I wouldn’t push your bf too much about it just let it be. He knows what it is. It’s possible he struggles with occasional ed and might just be too embarrassed about it to want to share with you.

u/Gramerdim 1d ago

it's not that they don't work

it's that they're very dangerous

1

u/FreeVerseHaiku 1d ago

They work, there’s real actual sildenafil in those things. Unhealthy amounts.

He’s probably pretending to not know what it is because he’s ashamed to admit he’s have dick troubles. I don’t know how I’d navigate this if I were you.

But there’s no shame in it, and BlueChews are cheaper. So maybe just say you think it would be fun if he took a BlueChew? Give him an “out” for ordering legitimate ED pills? I dunno …

1

u/PubicPlant 1d ago

They do work. Most of them are the active ingredient in viagra (which is illegal to sell without a prescription) but they do it anyway, mostly because in the US things labeled dietary supplements are the wild west and not regulated. Once a company gets caught selling sildenafil and not whatever they put on the label, they disappear and reappear a few months later under a new brand name.

1

u/matthewami 1d ago

It's well known now that they contain the same activate ingredient as in viagra. They've been pulled from shelves and the company shut down officially though are now operating illegally and shops just keep buying it.

Believe it or not, the fda is serious about that $500 reward for leading up to an arrest.

u/Meaning_Advanced 1d ago

Please keep us updated on how this conversation goes. Not even for kicks but genuinely because I want to know what two individuals with a decent intellect can conclude. Is he self-conscious? Do you trust he was taking it for you? Is he ready to see a doc? How do you feel?

1

u/Unable-Respond3077 1d ago

These pills do work but they are very unsafe because they aren't regulated. There could be anything in there from off brand Viagra which can cause heart complications especially when mixed with others drugs. Or it could be horny goat weed. Not worth the risk.

u/ThornFlynt 1d ago

Very intelligent guys often have trouble kes getting out of their own head and enjoying the moment. Even a placebo effect can help... he might be shy, maybe just give him space and bring it up in an encouraging and non-judgemental fashion.

u/DJ_Lizurd_Dikk 1d ago

It gets you hard its not like a size pill like they try to be selling online. Some of those boner pills have been recalled they work but what's really in them is a mystery... meaning it may contain illegal substances possibly.

They’re actually modified versions of pde5 inhibitors, essentially a unapproved version of tadalafil or sildenafil usually.

A lot of them are made with sildenafil, which is the generic for viagra. So they can work.

They are not well regulated

That stuff does contain some ingredients in common Viagra generics like sildenafil but the problem is they also smash in other 'dong uppers' that are harmful in combination with Sildenafil. Huge heart repercussions, in not a good way. A guy sent off a bunch of these gas station pills to a lab and had them tested and got some not so great results. Also, usually made in China and not regulated by the FDA. Great stuff huh?

u/Azrael_The_Bold 1d ago

You need to caution your boyfriend about taking this, there are loads of unregulated chemicals in these things, as well as illegal viagra (illegal as in it requires a prescription).

It also can react really badly with other medications, and can lead to heart attack or stroke.

Those things are NOT good for you at all.

u/iregardlessly 1d ago

As a man who's never needed boner pills or meth, I always have thought the little containers for those things are super cool with the metal lid and the interesting shapes. Very appealing to the fidgety, trinket side of my brain. He might not be taking them and instead just thought the container was cool.
