Frequently Asked Questions About Healthy Meds Viagra and Its Use

Consult your doctor before using any medication, including Viagra, especially if you have underlying health conditions.

Dosage and Administration

    The typical starting dose is 50mg, taken as needed, about an hour before sexual activity. Your doctor may adjust the dosage based on your response and tolerance. The maximum recommended dose is 100mg per day. Take Viagra with a glass of water. Avoid grapefruit juice, which can interfere with its metabolism.

Side Effects

    Severe side effects are rare but can include chest pain, sudden vision loss, or prolonged erection (priapism). Seek immediate medical attention if you experience these.

Interactions with Other Medications

Inform your doctor about all medications you’re taking, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements. Some medications can interact with Viagra and increase the risk of side effects. Avoid nitrates (used to treat chest pain) as this combination can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure.

    Open communication with your doctor is key to optimizing treatment.

Storage and Disposal

    Store Viagra at room temperature, away from moisture and direct sunlight. Dispose of expired medication properly according to your local guidelines.

Long-Term Use
