Consult your doctor before using Viagra, especially if you have heart problems, low blood pressure, or eye conditions. Viagra can lower blood pressure, potentially causing dizziness or fainting. It can also interact negatively with nitrates, medications used for chest pain. This combination can be dangerous.
Common Side Effects
Common side effects include headaches, facial flushing, nasal congestion, and indigestion. These are usually mild and temporary. However, more serious, though rare, side effects exist.
Serious Side Effects: Seek Immediate Medical Attention
Seek immediate medical help if you experience prolonged erection (priapism), lasting more than four hours. This is a medical emergency. Other serious, less common side effects include sudden vision loss or hearing loss. Sudden changes in vision, including blurred vision and sensitivity to light, also warrant immediate medical attention. Report any chest pain, irregular heartbeat, or shortness of breath immediately.
