Viagra
Drug Uses
Viagra is used to treat impotence in men. Viagra increases
the body?s ability to achieve and maintain an erection
during sexual stimulation. Viagra does not protect you
from getting sexually transmitted diseases, including
HIV.
How Taken
Viagra comes as a tablet to take by mouth. It should
be taken as needed about 1 hour before sexual activity.
However, Viagra can be taken anytime from 4 hours to
30 minutes before sexual activity. Viagra should not
be taken more than once a day. Do not take more or less
of it or take it more often than prescribed by your
doctor. Warnings/Precautions
Before taking Viagra, tell your doctor if you have had
a heart attack, stroke, or life-threatening irregular
heartbeats within the last six months; have a history
of heart failure; have coronary artery disease; have
angina; have high or low blood pressure; have liver
problems; have kidney problems; have ever had blood
problems, including sickle cell anemia or leukemia;
have a bleeding disorder; have a stomach ulcer; have
retinitis pigmentosa (an inherited condition of the
eye; have a physical deformity of the penis such as
Peyronie's disease; have a condition that could lead
to prolonged and painful erections, such as a tumor
of the bone marrow, sickle cell anemia, or leukemia;
or are taking another medicine to treat impotence. You
may not be able to take Viagra, or you may require a
dosage adjustment or special monitoring during treatment
if you have any of the conditions listed above. Although
Viagra is not indicated for use by women, it is in the
FDA pregnancy category B. This means that Viagra is
not expected to be harmful to an unborn baby. Viagra
should not be taken by women. It is not known whether
Viagra passes into breast milk. Viagra should not be
taken by women. If you are over 65 years of age, you
may be more likely to experience side effects from Viagra.
Your doctor may prescribe a lower dose of this medication.
Missed Dose
Viagra is used as needed, so you are not likely to miss
a dose. Possible Side Effects
Like all medicines, Viagra can cause some side effects.
These effects are usually mild to moderate and usually
don't last longer than a few hours. Some of these side
effects are more likely to occur with higher doses.
The most common side effects of Viagra are headache,
flushing of the face, and upset stomach. Less common
side effects that may occur are temporary changes in
color vision (such as trouble telling the difference
between blue and green objects or having a blue color
tinge to them), eyes being more sensitive to light,
or blurred vision. In rare instances, men have reported
an erection that lasts many hours. You should call a
doctor immediately if you ever have an erection that
lasts more than 4 hours. If not treated right away,
permanent damage to your penis could occur. Heart attack,
stroke, irregular heart beats, and death have been reported
rarely in men taking Viagra. Most, but not all, of these
men had heart problems before taking this medicine.
It is not possible to determine whether these events
were directly related to Viagra. Storage
Keep Viagra out of the reach of children. Keep Viagra
in its original container. Store at 25?C (77?F); excursions
permitted to 15-30?C (59-86?F). Overdose
Seek emergency medical attention. Symptoms of a Viagra
overdose are not known, but are likely to include chest
pain, dizziness, an irregular heartbeat, and swelling
of the ankles or legs. More Information

regularly or as needed ? you should never take Viagra.

drug containing nitrates, your blood pressure could
suddenly drop to an unsafe level. You could get dizzy,
