Always follow your doctor’s instructions regarding Viagra dosage. The typical starting dose is 50mg, taken about an hour before sexual activity. Your doctor may adjust this based on your response and individual health needs. Doses range from 25mg to 100mg.
Common side effects include headache, facial flushing, nasal congestion, and upset stomach. These are usually mild and temporary. More serious, though rare, side effects include vision changes (blurred vision, blue tint to vision), prolonged erection (priapism), and sudden hearing loss. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience any of these.
Certain medications can interact negatively with Viagra. Inform your doctor about all medications, including herbal supplements, you are currently taking. Conditions like heart disease, low blood pressure, or certain eye problems may also influence the suitability of Viagra. Open communication with your doctor ensures safe and effective use.
Never exceed the recommended dose. Taking more Viagra than prescribed won’t enhance its effects and could increase the risk of side effects. If you experience side effects that worry you, contact your doctor immediately.
Viagra is not suitable for everyone. Women, individuals with certain health conditions, or those taking specific medications should not use Viagra. Your doctor can determine if Viagra is the right treatment for you.
