The standard starting dose of Sildenafil is 50mg. Your doctor may adjust this based on your response and individual needs, typically ranging from 25mg to 100mg. Always follow your doctor’s instructions precisely.
Common side effects are usually mild and temporary. These include headache, flushing, nasal congestion, and visual disturbances (blurred vision, sensitivity to light). These typically resolve within a few hours.
Less common, but more serious side effects, require immediate medical attention. These include chest pain, prolonged erection (priapism), sudden vision loss, or hearing loss. Seek immediate medical help if you experience any of these.
Sildenafil can interact with other medications, especially nitrates used for heart conditions. Inform your doctor about all medications you are taking, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements, before starting Sildenafil.
Individual responses to Sildenafil vary. What works well for one person might not be as effective for another. Open communication with your doctor is key to finding the right dosage and managing potential side effects.
