Potential Side Effects and Risks of Viagra

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. However, some men experience more serious reactions.

More severe, though less frequent, side effects can include vision changes (blurred vision, blue-tint vision), prolonged erection (priapism – a medical emergency requiring immediate attention), hearing loss, and heart problems. Seek immediate medical help if you experience these.

Viagra interacts with certain medications, particularly nitrates used to treat chest pain. Combining them can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure. Always inform your doctor about all medications you’re taking.

Pre-existing heart conditions, low blood pressure, or stroke history increase the risk of complications. Your physician will assess your suitability for Viagra considering your overall health.

Alcohol consumption can worsen side effects. Moderate your alcohol intake while using Viagra.

Follow your doctor’s instructions carefully regarding dosage and frequency. Never exceed the recommended dose.

If you experience any concerning side effects, contact your doctor or seek immediate medical attention.
