Consult your doctor before using Viagra. This medication can cause headaches, flushing, and nasal congestion. Some men experience visual disturbances, such as blurred vision or changes in color perception.
More serious, though rare, side effects include prolonged erection (priapism) requiring immediate medical attention. Chest pain, irregular heartbeat, or sudden vision loss also demand immediate medical help.
Viagra interacts with certain medications, particularly nitrates. Taking Viagra with nitrates can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure. Inform your physician of all medications you are currently taking, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements.
Avoid alcohol consumption while using Viagra, as it can intensify side effects. High-fat meals may delay the onset of action. Follow your doctor’s instructions carefully regarding dosage and frequency of use.
