The typical starting dose of chewable generic Viagra (sildenafil) is 25 mg. Your doctor might adjust this based on your response and individual health needs. Never exceed the maximum recommended dose of 100 mg in a 24-hour period.
Common Side Effects
Common side effects include headache, facial flushing, nasal congestion, and indigestion. These are usually mild and temporary. If you experience a prolonged or painful erection (priapism), seek immediate medical attention. This is a serious side effect requiring prompt treatment.
Less Common Side Effects
Less frequent side effects can involve dizziness, visual disturbances (blurred vision, changes in color perception), and back pain. Rarely, more serious side effects occur, such as heart problems (chest pain, irregular heartbeat), hearing loss, or stroke. If you experience any of these, stop taking the medication and contact a doctor immediately.
Always inform your doctor about your medical history, including any existing heart conditions, liver or kidney problems, or eye issues, before starting treatment. This allows them to assess the potential risks and benefits for you personally. Remember to follow your doctor’s instructions carefully for safe and effective use.
