Potential Side Effects and Precautions

Always consult your doctor before using Viagra. Some men experience headaches, flushing, and nasal congestion. Less common side effects include indigestion, dizziness, and visual disturbances like blurred vision or sensitivity to light. In rare cases, more serious side effects such as prolonged erection (priapism) or sudden vision or hearing loss may occur. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience any of these serious side effects.

Viagra interacts with certain medications, including nitrates used to treat heart conditions. Combining them can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure. Inform your doctor about all medications, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements, you are currently taking. Pre-existing heart conditions, low blood pressure, or stroke history require careful evaluation before Viagra use.

Alcohol consumption can intensify side effects. Avoid excessive alcohol while using Viagra. The drug may also affect your ability to drive or operate machinery; avoid these activities if you feel dizzy or lightheaded.

Viagra is not suitable for everyone. It’s contraindicated in men with certain health conditions. Your doctor will assess your health status to determine if Viagra is safe for you. Follow your doctor’s instructions carefully regarding dosage and frequency of use.

Store Viagra in a cool, dry place, away from children and pets. Dispose of expired medication responsibly.
