Suggested use:
 The effects of Passion Rx are cumulative, that is, the more days you take Passion Rx, the more it builds up in your system and the more enhancement you will feel.
     Herbs work slower than drugs. Passion Rx is designed to work slower with a minimum of side effects as opposed to drugs that work quick but have serious consequences. Some users feel aroused and ready for action within an hour, while for others it takes several days or even a week or two. Each person is unique in their response.
   Start with one capsule in the morning, a few minutes before breakfast. If you are sensitive to herbs, start with 1/2 of a capsule. The capsules can be easily opened and mixed in water or juice.
     Effects may begin several hours after ingestion, and last all evening. However, on low doses, the best results are noticed the second, third, or  fourth day. For long term use take 2 days on, 2 or more days off. Or, take a day or two before and the day of planned intimacy.
     You will eventually find out for yourself the ideal dosage and frequency to use Passion Rx. If you are sensitive to herbs, or over the age of 60, or have a health condition, discuss with your physician before use. Your doctor may recommend you start with half of a capsule.
    
NOTE: A portion of users (around 20 to 30 percent) may not notice much the first three or four days that they try Passion Rx. If this happens to you, don't give up. Take a break for a day and restart for another 2 days, and keep this pattern. Almost everyone eventually will tune in to the benefits. And once you do, Passion Rx may become your favorite herbal supplement. Lack of initial response is also true of Viagra... some people don't notice the effects the first time they try it, but find it to be helpful the second or third time they take it. Studies show overall about 60 to 80 % of individuals find Viagra to be effective.

Herbs Found in Passion RX
 Ashwagandha is a shrub whose roots have been used for thousands of years by Ayurvedic practitioners. Ashwagandha contains withanolides which are known to influence acetylcholine receptors involved in dilation of blood vessels.
 Catuaba is a medium-sized tree found in Brazil. In Brazilian herbal medicine, Catuaba bark is considered a central nervous system stimulant with aphrodisiac properties.
 Cnidium is a plant which grows in China whose seeds are used in classical traditional Chinese medicine. A compound found in cnidium called osthol helps relax the corpus cavernosa of the penis.
 Muira Puama is a small tree native to the Brazilian Amazon. Indigenous peoples use muira puama for the therapy of sexual debility, fatigue, and low mood.
 Tongkat Ali is a small tree found in the jungles throughout Malaysia and Southeat Asia. Studies show that Tongkat-Ali produces a dose-dependent increase in mounting frequency of treated animals.
Tribulus Terrestris, also called "puncture vine," is a plant long used around the world for the treatment of various ailments. Tribulus-Terrestris may work by relaxing smooth muscles and increasing blood flow into the corpus cavernosa. The relaxant effect observed is probably due to the increase in the release of nitric oxide from the endothelium and nerve endings.
Yohimbe is the name of the bark of a tall evergreen tree in western Africa known as Pausinystalia yohimbe. Yohimbe acts through the nervous system to increase blood flow to the genital region through antagonism of alpha 2-adrenoceptors. The amount of Yohimbe bark in this product has been intentionally kept low to minimize any potential side effects (about half or a third of other products on the market). Individuals with heart conditions, a tendency for heart irregularities, or high blood pressure should consult their physician who may recommend that dosage be kept to one capsule only. Yohimbe should be used carefully in those who take anti-depressants (particulary MAO inhibitors), stimulant drugs, or cardiac drugs.

Positive Side Effects
Thus far in our clinical research, the most common positive side effects have been increased energy, alertness, enhanced motivation, and improved vision. Some users have also reported that colors are brighter and visual focus has improved. There have been several reports that Passion Rx leads to a sense of wellbeing, improved confidence, and a sense of mild and pleasant euphoric relaxation.
   The sexual enhancing effects of Passion Rx are noticed more when the actual act of intimacy occurs, or when a person begins to self-stimulate.

Negative Side Effects
The most common negative side effects include slightly elevated body temperature (drink cold water to cool yourself if this happens), sweating in armpits, and mild insomnia. Avoid taking more than one capsule of this product if you happen to spend the day in high heat or plan heavy exercise in high heat.
   Both the positive and negative side effects are dose dependent. That is, the more capsules you take, the more positive and negative side effects you will notice. If you wish to minimize the negative side effects, take half or 2/3 of a capsule each morning for 2 days rather than a full capsule.  As with any other supplement, it is best to consult with your health care provider before use particularly if you have a medical condition or you are taking medications.

Passion Rx Testimonials
Q. I swallowed a full Passion Rx capsule in the morning an hour before before breakfast. The first evening I thought I noticed a little fuller feeling in my pants and a slight increase in sexual thought frequency. The second day these were felt stronger. I took off the third day and the sexual increase was still there. I really noticed the full onset of the sexual enhancement on the fourth and fifth days of use. It was powerful, close to what I felt as a teenager. I'm 46, swm, with no health problems.

Q. I take Passion Rx with Yohimbe 2 days on, 2 or 3 days off. I do one pill, not a fraction of a pill. I noticed the effects within 2 weeks for sure, probably less. I didn't get any side effects. I was aware that blood pressure could vary, and I have a monitor. I am at about 115/75 and I stayed there. No other side effects I can notice.

Passion Rx questions
Q. I store all my vitamins and supplements in my refrigerator but I have not put the Passion Rx there. Is it okay to store the bottle in the fridge? If not, where is the best place.
   A. a cool dry place is fine, Passion Rx does not need to be refrigerated, the herbs can last years in a cool, dry place.

Q. What is the difference between Passion Rx and Passion-Rx Yohimbe?
   A. One product has the herb yohimbe, and the other one doesn't. They also have some common herbs but also different ones. As to effectiveness, they are similar. Some people prefer one version, others prefer the other. It is not possible to predict which version a person will appreciate more.

Q. Can Passion Rx be taken by those who have high blood pressure?
   A. Passion Rx may be used by those who have mild blood pressure elevation, as long as your doctor approves. We do not suggest Passion Rx be taken by those with moderate or severe hypertension.

Q. I've been reading information about Passion-Rx Yohimbe product and it sounds great. My wife and I wanted to know is there ANY way we can request a FREE SAMPLE of this product?
   A. We are not aware of any place that gives away free samples of Passion Rx.

Q. Can I take vitamins such as C, E, A, MSM, Garilic, ...etc... with Passion Rx?
   A. We recommend not taking other supplements the first few times you take Passion Rx so you have a sense of its effects without interference. However, vitamins A, C, E and garlic are fine since they don't stimulate. Perhaps MSM can be paused on the days taking Passion Rx.

Q. I am a 56 yr old male with I suppose age related erection problems --which of your natural products would you recommend ?Also I am of a very anxious ,nervous disposition --even having  minor tremble in hands at times of stress and at meetings. I am not too keen > on taking any prescription medicine and i would like to know if you had proven product.
   A. Perhaps ashwagandha at 100 to 200 mg a day over a period of several days may be appropriate.

Q. I work in Radiation Oncology at McKee Cancer Center in Loveland, CO. We treat many men for prostate cancer. Of course, since prostate cancers are stimulated (worsened) by testosterone, we don't want to approve a preparation that will increase testosterone levels. In fact, sometimes men are on anti-testosterone injections as part of their cancer treatment.
   A. We have not seen any formal studies evaluating hormone levels after ingestion of Passion Rx. Although tribulus and tongkat ali are thought to stimulate testosterone production, we have no long term proof of this, plus the amounts of these herbs in Passion Rx are a tiny fraction of those found in the capsules containing tribulus or tongkat ali by themselves. Furthermore, most people only need to take Passion Rx about 2 or 3 days a week. You may also consider Prostate Power Rx which has a good sexual enhanacment and erectile function potential (plus herbs that in vitro have been found to have anti prostate tumor potential). Prostate Power Rx is not as potent as Passion Rx but still very good. Another option is to alternate the use Passion Rx and Prostate Power Rx thus reducing the use of Passion Rx.

Q. Your Passion Rx page says not to take it on the same day as antidepressants (in my case, Celexa). But Celexa takes a while to be effective after you start taking it, and stays in the system for a while after you stop. How long do you suggest I wait after stopping Celexa before taking Passion Rx, and vice versa? Might Passion Rx be effective
with a reduced dosage of antidepressant?
   A. It is difficult to make any suggestions that would apply to everyone since each person is different on how they metabolize drugs and herbs, and the dosage of the medicines makes a significant difference. However, if the Celxa dosage is low, and a person skips a day, they can take a small amount of Passion Rx, such as half a capsule the day when Celexa is not being used, and perhaps alternate one day using Celexa and another day using half a capsule of Passion Rx. However, one must realize that Celexa, and most antidepressants, increase serotonin levels and serotonin is known to inhibit sexual drive. whether Passion Rx can overcome this effect is difficult to say, but it may in many people. Ideally, for Passion Rx to work best, it is preferable that it be taken during a week where Celexa is not being used at all. These are general guidelines that your doctor can use to manage your own case.

Q. I am a doctor and would like to order 2 bottles of Passion Rx, what are my payment options? I live in the Netherlands, when will it be delivered here?
   A. Please visit the website www.physicianformulas.com. They have shipping airmail or global express. You may consider buying Passion Rx and Passion Rx with yohimbe, they work differently (but not used the same day).

Q. It is said that Passion RX with Yohimbe works faster than the one without Yohimbe. It is also said that it can't be said that RxX with yohimbe is necessarily stronger. Do you mean by "faster" that Passion RX with Yohimbe is better for Erectile Disfunction while Rx without Yohimbe is just good as an aphrodisiac? Which one is better for Erectile Disfunction (not simply as libido enhancer)? Which of your products can be helpful for Testosterone deficiency in
young male-mild form? I want to avoid Testosterone therapy.
   A. Passion Rx with yohimbe works faster in terms of erectile function, usually by the second day. Passion Rx without yohimbe takes more time, usually a few days for full erectlle effect, but when it does, it is as good as Passion Rx with yohimbe, it just takes a little longer. Both have an excellent effect on libido. It is difficult to predict which one will work better in any individual person. As to testosterone, tribulus terrestris and tongkat ali may have such effect in the short term, but whether they continue doing so with regular use over the long run has not yet been determined.

Q. Is there any reason for a woman not to take Passion Rx if she is trying to get pregnant?
   A. We are not aware of any testing regarding Passion Rx in these situations so we don't know what kind of effect it would have on the process of pregnancy.

Q. I would like to know if it would be safe to use Passion Rx product if you are a kidney transplant recipient?
   A. We are uncomfortable recommending Passion Rx in this case since we don't know of anyone with a kidney transplant who has taken Passion Rx and we don't know if there would be any problems, especially with the prescription medicines that most people with transplants are taking. If your doctor approves, you could try a third of a capsule every other day or every third day.

Q. I have ordered the following products and I'm seeing different instructions on how to take them. I would like to know if I should take them on an empty stomach, with food, how many capsules, how many times a week etc.. I dont plan on taking all the supplements on the same day. I plan to switch between each supplement. Please advice on the following products. Tribulus terrestris, mucuna pruriens, Passion Rx.
   A. It is best to first learn how each one works by itself for a week at no more than one capsule each. Then, after taking a 2 day break, one can switch to another herb and try that one for a week. Passion Rx is potent therefore every other day use may be more appropriate. Once you know how you respond to each herb, then you will have a better idea on how to take them and when. Keep in mind that the effects of the herbs can accumulate over time so days off are definitely needed. These are general guidelines and your doctor would make the final decision.

Q. I have taking Passion Rx for two weeks on every other day. I haven't felt difference as of yet I'm taking Norvasc and Zestral for high blood pressure and taking allopuinol one a day and Wellbutrin twice a day. Other than the above, I'm in good health. I have been taking L-arginne. Do these medicines interfere with the Passion Rx benefit?
   A. Passion Rx and many sex herbs do not work as well when people are on pharmaceutical medicines and antidepressants. Wellbutrin is an antidepressant that influences dopamine levels. Norvasc is in a class of drugs called calcium channel blockers. Zestril is a type of drug called an ACE inhibitor. It works by reducing production of a substance that increases salt and water retention in your body. Allopurinol is used to treat gout that is caused by too much uric acid in the blood. All these drugs have unpredictable results when combined with herbs for sexual function.

Q. I’m thinking about ordering some passion Rx, and was wondering if there was anything in it that would interfere with my Parkinson's medications?
   A. There is no simple answer that can be provided. There are several types of medications used by patients with Parkinson's disease. Most of them influence the dopamine neurotransmitter. We have not tested Passion Rx along with prescription drugs used for Parkinson's disease, se we don't know for sure. Unexpected reactions can happen sometimes when medicines and drugs are combined. Much also depends on  a person's overall health, blood pressure, cardiac health, sleep patterns, activity levels, etc. As a general rule one has to be cautious taking herbs for sexual enhancement with medication that are prescribed for heart disease, blood pressure, depression, or other medicines that influence neurotransmitter levels. One option, if your doctor approves, is to used half a capsule and proceed in a more gradual approach to sexual improvement.

Q. Are there free Passion Rx samples? I would like to try a Passion Rx sample before buying a full bottle.
   A. We are not aware of a free Passion Rx sample availability.

Q. Where is the best place to buy a Passion Rx discount bottle?
   A. You could search on the internet and try to find a site that has Passion Rx discount prices. Some website sometimes discount the product.

Q. Is Passion Rx for a woman? Does it work well for women?
   A. Yes, Passion Rx works as well in a woman as a man.

Q. Which is more effective, Passion Rx without yohimbe or Passion Rx with yohimbe?
   A. They are both equally effective. Some people prefer Passion Rx without yohimbe while others prefer the one with yohimbe.

Q. I noticed Passion Rx review websites on the internet, some say it works, others say it doesn't. I realized that the ones that said it didn't work were selling competing products.
   A. Yes, there are websites that criticize all other products and steer the unsuspecting consumer to their own product.

Q.  Is it safe to take Passion Rx Yohimbe formula if one has had breast cancer that is estrogen receptive? Hormones are off limit.
   A. We have no reason to believe that Passion Rx has an influence on breast cancer. In fact, if anything, some of the herbs in Passion Rx, in lab studies, have anti-cancer potential. To be 100 percent certain, we would have to do studies with breast cancer patients giving them Passion Rx for a few years to see what influence this product would have. We have no plans to do this since it is extremely expensive to do, requiring hundreds of thousands of dollars. For long term use Passion Rx is only used 2 days a week, and at this frequency we don't think it will have much of an influence on breast cancer. The final decision rests on the consumer and their doctor.

Q. I am wondering if it is alright to take Passion Rx as a younger male in his early twenties. Beyond this, and more importantly, I am concerned with what would happen if I were to cease taking this supplement. Would I suffer a sharp decrease in sex drive? Is there any method of taking the supplement and stopping the use that is best? Please let me know because I fear that this will only cause immediate increase in sex drive and then when it is ceased will cause a sharp decline.
   A. Passion Rx has been sold for more than 3 years to men and women of all ages. There has not been any reports of decreased sexual drive after stopping the use of Passion Rx. In fact, most people find enhanced sexuality. In the long run, Passion Rx is only used one or two days a week.

Q. I have fine thinning hair. I have heard that some herbs especially those affecting testosterone levels can negatively affect hair falling out . Would taking Passion Rx without yohimbe have any negative affect on my thinning hair condition.
   A. We have no reason to suspect using Passion Rx has any effect on hair thinning or hair loss. In the long run, Passion Rx is only used as needed or 2 or 3 days a week.

Q. How will Passion Rx interact with Seasonale, birth control?
   A. We don't have any feedback from users of Passion Rx who take Seasonale. Normally Passion Rx is only used 2 or 3 days a week and we don't suspect any untoward reactions but we reserve the final decision to be made by you and your doctor.

Q. We are a distributor for Passion Rx and have been doing a lot of business with this supplement. As we are trying to expand our market, we are coming across a lot of questions about this supplement. A very common question is whether or not it can be used with other herbs. There are a lot of people who are taking herbal antidepressants (ours has mainly St. John’s wort and some tyrosine). Are there any contraindications with Passion Rx and other herbs? I am sure it is OK to use it with vitamins and fish oil.
   A. Passion Rx is potent and it was formulated so that when taken in the morning the stimulation from the sexual herbs would wear off by bedtime. If other supplements are taken that cause stimulation, insomnia could occur. Weak multivitamins are okay but not very strong ones. Fish oils are fine up to 3 caps a day. We suggest avoiding any supplement with stimulation, including tyrosine, St. John's wort, SAM-e, ginseng, etc.

Q. I recently was at the web site for Passion-Rx Yohimbe. I would very much like to try the supplement but am concerned for a women my size (5'3''- 122lbs) and dosage amounts. I am 57 years old, in excellent health and with a healthy life-style. It is in capsule form, so reducing the initial pill amount may not be possible?  What do you suggest? It sounds like a wonderful product, and I will look forward to your response.
   A. The capsules can be opened by pulling on each side and emptying the contents in a glass with an ounce or two of juice and closing the capsule. On your first day you can use half of it in the morning before breakfast, and again the next morning. Then you can decide if you need more or less, perhaps you can increase to 3/4 or a full capsule. There is a wide variation in people's response and we have had some people notice the effects on half while others need more than one. It usually takes a few days or a week for the full benefits to come.

Q. I have a general question about Passion Rx and taking it with cholesterol issue. You mention heart conditions as one area which shouldn't include Passion Rx. I have mild hypertension and am taking 5 mg of Altace. No heart meds and no attacks. just 4 stents inserted 5 years ago for blockage. I am very active (swim and tennis). I just wasn't sure what you meant by heart condition. I am not taking any nitrates or beta blockers. please advise. I was asymptomatic for the stents.
   A. We do not suggest using Passion Rx or sex herbs for those with cardiovascular problems since these herbs increase heart rate and in very high dosage can cause heart rhythm problems. However, if your doctor approves, and you wish to proceed slow, half a capsule every other day may be one option. Prostate Power Rx is also an option at one capsule every other day. The dosage makes the difference as to how these herbs influence the heart and vascular system.

Q. I am interested in Passion Rx but have monthly hormonal migraines, I'm not sure if Passion Rx would cause my migraines to become worse because it states increased blood flow. Can you give me any insight or maybe suggest another product?
   A. It is difficult to predict the response of Passion Rx in any one person, but one option would be to use only half a capsule every other day for two weeks and then base further dosage increase or decrease on your initial response. Hardly any sexual herbs have been studied in their relation to migraine headaches.

Q. Will passion-x without yohimbe also increase force and intensity of orgasms? I would like to find a product that would increase the sensation of orgasms. Is Passion Rx considered a male enhancement pill or a penis enlargement pill?
   A. Most users do notice such an effect after several days of use. See male enhancement pill for a review of this term.

Q. I live in Toronto, Canada and wanted to know if Passion Rx is available here. Also has Passion Rx been approved by Health Canada?
   A. Supplement formulas made in the USA do not need to be approved by Health Canada as long as the ingredients within the formula are on the acceptable list of Health Canada. Passion Rx with yohimbe is not acceptable, but Passion Rx without yohimbe is acceptable and can be shipped to Canada.

Q. Can the product Passion Rx Yohimbe be taken if I take 90mg of Cymbalta daily, and also 5htp? if so, what side effects could occur if any?
   A. We don't suggest using Passion Rx the same day as anti-depressants such as Cymbalta, unexpected side effects could occur and these are difficult to predict. 5-HTP reduces sexual drive and it would be counterproductive to take it along with a sex booster.

Q. I would like to purchase Passion Rx but I see it has magnesium stearate. Is this substance harmful?
   A. There is no evidence that the miniscule amounts of magnesium stearate in supplements is harmful.

Q. Do you know if Passion Rx might be detrimental if a person has beginning kidney disease? or Diabetes?
   A. There are many factors that are involved when making a decision to take supplements and it is not possible on this limited information to make such suggestions. If your doctor approves, you can take low amounts such as a third or half a capsule.
