Viagra

Viagra (sildenafil) is a popular prescription ED treatment. ED is also known as male impotence and can occur in even quite young men. It’s recommended to talk to a qualified health care professional before staring your treatment, as some side effects are possible. You also need to remember some medical conditions you have can interfere with the success of your treatment and should therefore be taken into consideration when a certain dose is prescribed. Two men of the same age and build can therefore need different doses of Viagra. The following medical conditions are important to mention to your health care provider before asking him for a prescription: high or low blood pressure, liver disease, congestive heart failure, hemophilia, heart rhythm problems, leukemia, kidney disease, physical deformity of the penis, sickle cell anemia, coronary artery disease, multiple myeloma, stomach ulcer, condition of the eye, and a recent history of a heart attack or stroke. Any other medical conditions you have or used to have must be also reported to make sure taking Viagra is going to be safe for you and of course effective. Viagra can cause interactions with other medicines. You must absolutely not combine it with nitrate-based drugs, as a sudden drop in blood pressure is possible. Other medicines are not expected to produce life-threatening symptoms, but also need to be discussed with your doctor in advance. The following ones are important to mention: anticoagulants, alpha blockers, cimetidine, erythromycin, certain barbiturates, HIV protease inhibitors, efavirenz, beta blockers, certain antifungals, seizure medications, medications for high blood pressure, nevirapine, and other medications for erectile dysfunction. In case you experience dizziness, chest pain, tingling or numbness in your arms, chest or neck while having sex, call your doctor right away and do not take any more of Viagra until the problem has been resolved. Mild side effects of Viagra are sometimes reported by people using this medicine. The following ones are most common: heartburn, muscle aches, headache, nosebleeds, diarrhea, flushing, insomnia, sensitivity to light, burning or tingling in the arms, and changes in color vision. Serious side effects are unlikely but still possible and may include ringing in your ears, nausea, sudden hearing loss, feeling light-headed, irregular heartbeat, sweating, general ill feeling, shortness of breath, vision changes, sudden vision loss, swelling in your hands, and chest pain.
