Always consult your doctor before starting any new medication, especially if you have pre-existing conditions.
Common side effects may include headache, flushing, nasal congestion, and indigestion. These are usually mild and temporary. Severe side effects are rare but require immediate medical attention.
- Headache: Drink plenty of water and consider over-the-counter pain relief, but consult your doctor if headaches persist or worsen. Flushing: This redness of the skin is usually temporary and resolves on its own. Avoid excessive alcohol consumption. Nasal Congestion: Use a saline nasal spray to help alleviate symptoms. Indigestion: Take the medication with food to minimize stomach upset.
Certain medications can interact with erectile dysfunction medication. Tell your doctor about all medications you are currently taking, including:
Nitrates (used to treat angina): Combining these can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure. Alpha-blockers (used to treat high blood pressure): Concurrent use may lead to dizziness or fainting. Other erectile dysfunction medications: Taking multiple medications of this type simultaneously can be harmful.
This information is not exhaustive. Your doctor can provide a complete list of potential side effects and drug interactions specific to your situation and medical history. Always follow your doctor’s instructions carefully.
