VIAGRA PRECAUTIONS AND WARNINGS
There are many precautions and warnings for Viagra to be aware of. For example, among the conditions you should let your healthcare provider know about before you take Viagra are leukemia, sickle cell anemia, high blood pressure, and liver disease or liver failure. Also, Viagra can interact with certain other medications (such as alpha blockers), and it does not provide any protection against sexually transmitted diseases. Be sure to talk with your healthcare provider about any Viagra precautions and warnings that may apply to you.
There is a potential for cardiac risk of sexual activity in patients with preexisting cardiovascular disease. Therefore, treatments for erectile dysfunction, including VIAGRA, should not be generally used in men for whom sexual activity is inadvisable because of their underlying cardiovascular status.
VIAGRA has systemic vasodilatory properties that resulted in transient decreases in supine blood pressure in healthy volunteers (mean maximum decrease of 8.4/5.5 mmHg), (see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY: Pharmacodynamics). While this normally would be expected to be of little consequence in most patients, prior to prescribing VIAGRA, physicians should carefully consider whether their patients with underlying cardiovascular disease could be affected adversely by such vasodilatory effects, especially in combination with sexual activity.
Other medical conditions that prohibits the use of Viagra or for your doctor to be aware of before taking Viagra:
- peptic ulcer
- sickle cell anemia
- multiple myeloma
- leukemia
- HIV or AIDS
- history of heart attack within the last 6 months
- birth defective penis, curve penis
- retina disorder
- severe kidney problems
- severe liver problems
Other than these listed essential points, if you take Viagra and experience chest pain or nausea during sexual intercourse, inform your doctor then. Failure to seek proper precautions or treatment can lead to serious harm.
