Indications of Viagra
Viagra is formulated for the treatment of impotence. The drug functions through the enhancement of the individual’s ability to have and maintain an erection as he engages in sexual stimulation or activity. Keep in mind that this drug does not, in any way, protect the individual from sexually transmitted diseases or an HIV infection.
Usage of Viagra
Viagra is available in tablet-form which is taken orally. Viagra can be taken around an hour prior to engaging in sexual stimulation or activity. However, this drug may also be taken by the individual during the period of four hours to about half an hour before engaging in any sexual stimulation. The use of Viagra more than once daily is strongly not recommended. Make sure that the recommended and prescribed frequency and dosage by the physician will always be followed to avoid the occurrence of serious side effects.
Caution with the Use of Viagra
Make sure to let your physician know if you have experienced or have been experiencing any life-threatening irregular heartbeats, stroke or heart attack within the last six months. Inform your doctor if you have: any bleeding disorders; coronary heart disease; high or low blood pressure; stomach ulcers; retinitis pigmentosa, which is an inherited eye condition; sickle cell anemia; a physical penis deformity like Peyronie’s disease; a history of heart disease or failure; angina; kidney problems; blood problems like leukemia or anemia; a condition which may lead to prolonged and more painful erections; bone marrow tumor; and if you are taking any other drug or medication which is for the treatment of impotence.
If you have any of the conditions that have been mentioned, you would need to inform your doctor before starting the use of Viagra as it could lead to serious health problems and complications. Although Viagra has not been created for women, it is a drug that is classified under the FDA category B, meaning it would not do harm to a developing fetus. There is no established information whether it passes in breast milk and whether it can hurt a nursing baby. Additionally, keep in mind that if you are over 65 years of age, you might have some adverse effects while taking this drug. In such cases, your physician might choose to decrease your dosage.
Missed Doses of Viagra
Since Viagra just has to be taken as necessary, a dose would not likely be missed.
Side Effects of Viagra
Viagra could lead to several adverse effects. However, these effects are generally mild and would not likely be prolonged. These effects could be the result of dose enhancing. Some side effects would include an upset stomach, flushing of the face or a headache. There are also some uncommon side effects such as blurred vision, enhanced light sensitivity of the eyes and temporary color blindness or changes in color vision like difficulty in telling the blue and green apart. There have also been reported cases when the erection lasted for more hours than expected, in which case, a trip to the doctor should be done immediately to avoid serious injury of the penis. There have also been reports of heart attack, stroke, irregular heartbeats and even death; however, there are no reliable evidence and information that directly linked the mentioned cases.
Viagra Storage
Viagra needs to be stored at room temperature, meaning 77 degrees F or not more than 25 degrees C. It also has to be kept in a tightly-closed container that has no humidity at all. Like other drugs and medication, always keep Viagra out of children’s reach.
Viagra Overdose
In the event of a Viagra overdose, call for emergency service or a poison control center immediately. Although there is no established information of the symptoms of Viagra overdose, it may include swelling of the legs and ankles, irregular heartbeat, chest pain and dizziness.
Additional Information on Viagra
If you are using any other drug or medication that has nitrates, the use of Viagra is strongly not advised as your blood level could drop to a life-threatening level. This could lead to a feeling of dizziness, faint, as well as a heart attack or stroke. Some examples of drugs that have nitrates in them would include medications for angina.
