The following is an excerpt from Drugpedia, a Net-based resource that provides information on thousands of  pharmaceuticals, over-the-counter medicines, natural products, and substances.

APHROSIA

First, second, and even third-time users of Aphrosia typically report intense side-effects within minutes of taking the substance. A rise in body temperature and sudden perspiration are most common. These sensations may initially feel uncomfortable and many have described being overcome by a feverish heat—a symptom referred to as the “burning passion” phase.

The severity of these side-effects gradually decrease with repeated use; habitual users have found it to be less overwhelming if they take Aphrosia multiple times a week.

Shortly after taking the substance, the user will enter a state of extreme arousal. Males will develop an erection, while females will experience increased blood flow to the tissues around the vaginal opening and clitoris, leading to the vagina producing natural lubricant.

Denying sexual impulses while on Aphrosia is extremely difficult, even for regular users—but nearly impossible for anyone experimenting with it for the first or second time. Those new to Aphrosia may feel that their body has gone “out of control” while under its influence.

Users describe an “overload” of pleasurable sensations, along with a near-insatiable urge for sexual stimuli. These urges tend to be so powerful and persistent, that the desire/need for sexual release can become almost “maddening,” as reported by several first-time users.

In most cases, only after the user is able to release their sexual excitement through orgasm, will the effects of Aphrosia begin to subside. It’s currently believed that the increase of oxytocin levels following sexual activity help to counteract the substance.
