Always discuss Viagra dosage with your doctor. The typical starting dose is 50 mg, taken as needed, about an hour before sexual activity. Your doctor may adjust this based on your response and health status. Don’t exceed 100 mg in a 24-hour period.
Common side effects include headache, facial flushing, nasal congestion, and indigestion. These usually are mild and temporary. However, more serious side effects, though rare, include vision changes (blurred vision, blue-tinged vision), prolonged erection (priapism), hearing loss, and heart problems. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience any of these.
Certain health conditions may make Viagra unsuitable. Men with heart problems, low blood pressure, or severe liver/kidney disease should discuss potential risks with their physician before taking the medication. Also, individuals taking nitrates for chest pain should absolutely avoid Viagra.
Dosage adjustments may be necessary for men with liver or kidney impairment. Your doctor will guide you on appropriate dosage adjustments to minimize potential risks and optimize treatment.
