User Reviews for yohimbe

took 750 mg one time and felt flu-like symptons, nasal drip, feeling of chills for about 5 hours.

Tried a product called Max Stamina whose main ingredient is Yohimbe. Shame on me...took it on an empty stomach and after a prior night of little sleep (for unrelated reasons), followed by a long work day (12 hrs). However, thought others might find it helpful to know that if you find yourself taking this product under these circumstances, you will probably experience the following: Cold sweat, your heart wants to jump out of your throat, it helps with ED in the moment needed and NO OTHER TIME. Was relieved to see other reviews indicating nausea (thought it was because of my poor diet prior to taking the pills), but was nauseous for hours, dizzy upon standing, and saw little light tracers everywhere! and I stand by the notion that they were NOT a result of cataract surgery in my right eye 5 days prior. Other information that may be useful is that I am 5'9", 130lbs, age 36, and only ingested a single pill. Max Stamina does what it says and only that...nothing more. After climax the Yohimbe goes up in the tree house and continues to make you feel terrible for several subsequent hours. Here's to a 2nd night without sleep...ugh!!Read More Read Less

It made my heart want to jump out of my chest and it turned my guts inside out! The next morning My head hurt so bad I could not move! On top of that it did nothing for me in the bedroom.

Horrible took one time vomiting sweating, nasea headache. I have very low sex drive and wanted to try it.

Yohimbe is a terrible drug, I got high blood pressure, irregular heart beats, and just felt sick for hours, didn't throw up, but felt like I would. Also had a sense of panic quite often for the first few hours.

Lost an entire nights sleep. Heart pounding, felt like my nerves were exploding. Saw flying bats while sitting outside-no one else saw. Do not take this drug. Probably imported from Africa via Al Qaeda to kill Americans!

Yohimbe is toxic, 2 times the normal dose causes extreme toxic side effects, It interacts with almost every other herb/vitamin out there making it unpredictable, I once ate a banana and had to vomit for over an hour to prevent what felt like it was going to kill me. I was on the verge of losing consciousness and my kidneys and every blood vessel have never hurt so bad in my life, and if tried some crazy combos. Stear clear of this one unless you are willing to totally research what it is how it works and what the risks are.Read More Read Less

Great for the ED. But dizziness, sweating, Side effects also felt like hieves! If I knew now what I knew I would not have ordered it. PERIOD>

I took one pill that was only 112.5 mg. Like others said, when your heart starts racing and you have severe nausea and you just have to lay down for a few hours and pray that the symptoms pass quickly, sex is definitely the last thing on your mind. The first time I took a pill I had those symptoms but thought I was just getting very sick and didn't realize it was caused by the Yohimbe. I took a pill a few days later and had the exact same symptoms and realized why. Then I tried half a pill, so about 55mg and didn't have severe symptoms, but didn't have any benefits that I was hoping for either. I've read about the negative long-term effects on your heart etc. so I won't be trying this again.Read More Read Less

Insomnia, racing heart, night sweats. I took one capsule first time.

I took only 2 doses, 1st was 200mgs and experienced almost flu like symtoms-racing heart, nausea,chills,insomnia. Don't know why I gave it a second chance, this time 100mgs, same symtoms, 1/2 as bad. Not going near it again

Similar to the experiences of several other reviewers on this post, I tried a 451mg dose of Yohimbe and experienced flu-like symptoms that included chills, sneezing, runny nose, etc. Together with these symptoms, I also experienced restlessness/sleeplessness, nervousnous, slight blurring of my vision, and a very odd combination of chills alernating with bouts of profuse perspiration that literally soaked the underarms, front, and lower back of my shirt. While I did also experience a couple of erections,for me there are simply too many undesirable side effects to warrant taking this supplement again in the future. Read More Read Less

52 years old. No side effects. Hard as a rock. Much improved sex life.

Took one 500mg capsule and blood pressure dropped, with chills,dizziness, and blurred vision. No more of this for me.

Racing pulse, shivers and generally felt ill for several hours.

I tried Yohimbe about 6 months ago and the experience was horrible. I had many of the negative side effects-Heart racing, chills,overall feeling of dread. I put it in the locker and forgot about it. Over the last six months I have lost about 50 lbs and have been working out regularly every week. I decided to give it another try. I was seriously worried about my health after taking it last Saturday. All the previous symptoms returned. My blood pressure was still elevated on Sunday. On Monday morning it was still a little high. Normally my BP is well within the normal range even when I was 50 lbs heavier. It has now been 48 hours and I am starting to feel like myself again. I have thrown the remainder in the trash. Please make sure you are under medical supervision before and during using this product.Read More Read Less

I only took 4 mg of yohimbe extract that was in a libido boosting pill. My stage one high blood pressure that is normally 80/135 shot up to 110/205, gave me chills, and robbed me of an entire nights sleep. This drug should be percription only and is outlawed in other countries. Let's all celebrate when Viagra goes generic. Whoohoo!

yohimbe is strong stuff and not without side effects. I have had rapid heart beat and excessive sweating. But it makes you rock hard.
