Potential Side Effects and Precautions

Always consult your doctor before using Viagra or any medication. This is crucial for your safety.

Common side effects include headache, flushing, nasal congestion, and visual disturbances. These are usually mild and temporary. However, if you experience chest pain, sudden vision loss, prolonged erection (priapism), or a sudden hearing loss, seek immediate medical attention. These are serious side effects that require prompt action.

Interactions with Other Medications

Viagra can interact with other medications, particularly nitrates used to treat chest pain. This combination 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.

Conditions Requiring Caution

Individuals with certain heart conditions, low blood pressure, liver or kidney problems, or a history of stroke or heart attack should discuss the risks and benefits of Viagra with their doctor before use. Men with blood cell disorders should also exercise caution. The medication is not suitable for everyone.

Follow your doctor’s instructions carefully regarding dosage and frequency of use. Do not exceed the recommended dose. Proper use minimizes potential adverse effects.
