Viagra Side
Effects
As with most prescription medications, Viagra may
produce the following side effects: headache, flushing, stomach
upset, nasal stuffiness, diarrhea and dizziness might occur.It also
causes changes in color vision, sometimes in the rare occurrence
of painful, prolonged erections, seek prompt medical attention if
erection last longer than four hours.
Viagra Drug Interactions
You should not take Viagra if you are taking drugs, which
contain nitrates such as nitroglycerin (commonly used for chest
pains because of heart disease ). Taking Viagra with any nitrate
medicine can cause your blood pressure to suddenly drop to an unsafe
or life-threatening level. You could get dizzy, faint or even have
a heart attack or stroke. Nitrates also found in illegally inhaled
drugs (including amyl nitrate, nitrite or "poppers," and
others) have the same effect when combined with Viagra.
If you are taking alpha-blocker therapy for the
treatment of high blood pressure or prostate problems, you should
not take a dose of Viagra greater than 25 mg of Viagra at the same
time (within 4 hours) as you take your dose of alpha-blocker. If
you are taking a protease inhibitor, your dose may be adjusted by
your doctor. It should not be used with any other medical treatments
that cause erections.

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) [see USP Controlled Room
