The recommended starting dose of once-daily Viagra (sildenafil) is 50mg, taken orally at approximately the same time each day, regardless of sexual activity. This allows for consistent levels of the medication in your bloodstream.
Adjusting Your Dose
Your doctor may adjust your dose based on your response and tolerance. The dose can be increased to a maximum of 100mg daily or decreased to 25mg, depending on individual needs. Always follow your doctor’s instructions precisely.
Taking Viagra
Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. You can take it with or without food, but consistent timing is key for maintaining stable blood levels. Avoid grapefruit juice, as it can interact with sildenafil and affect its efficacy. Regularly scheduled intake is more predictable than taking it only as needed.
Important Considerations
Speak to your doctor before starting Viagra, especially if you have heart problems, low blood pressure, or certain eye conditions. Inform your doctor about all medications you are currently taking to avoid potential interactions. Do not exceed the prescribed dose.
