Consult your doctor before using Viagra. This medication isn’t suitable for everyone.
Common side effects include headache, facial flushing, nasal congestion, and indigestion. These usually are mild and temporary.
More serious, though less common, side effects include changes in vision, including blurred vision or blue-tint vision. Prolonged or painful erections (priapism) require immediate medical attention. This is a medical emergency.
Heart problems are a risk factor. If you have heart disease, high blood pressure, or have had a heart attack or stroke, Viagra might not be safe for you. Discuss your cardiovascular health thoroughly with your physician.
Viagra can interact negatively with certain medications, particularly nitrates used to treat chest pain. This combination can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure. Always inform your doctor about all medications, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements, you are currently taking.
Hearing loss and dizziness have also been reported. If you experience these, seek medical advice immediately.
Rarely, more severe side effects can occur. Your doctor will assess your individual risk factors and determine if Viagra is a safe and appropriate treatment option for you.
