The recommended starting dose of Viagra is 50 mg taken as needed, approximately one hour before sexual activity.
Your doctor may adjust this based on your response and individual needs. Possible dosages include:
- 25 mg: This lower dose is suitable for individuals who find 50 mg too strong or experience significant side effects. 50 mg: This is the typical starting dose for most men. 100 mg: This higher dose is used only if the lower doses prove ineffective and is prescribed under careful medical supervision.
Follow your doctor’s instructions precisely. Do not exceed the recommended dose.
Here are some important points regarding administration:
Take Viagra only as directed by your physician. Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Viagra is designed for oral use only. Do not crush, chew, or dissolve the tablet. Avoid consuming grapefruit or grapefruit juice while taking Viagra, as it can interfere with its metabolism. The medication’s effects may be reduced by high-fat meals. Consume a lighter meal before taking Viagra for optimal results. Do not take more than one dose in a 24-hour period.
Remember to discuss any potential drug interactions with your doctor before starting Viagra. This includes other medications you may be taking, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements.
