Always inform your doctor about all your health conditions, including heart problems, high or low blood pressure, liver or kidney disease, blood cell disorders, eye problems like retinitis pigmentosa, and bleeding disorders. This information helps your doctor assess the risks and benefits of using Sildenafil-50.
Heart Conditions and Blood Pressure
Sildenafil can lower blood pressure. If you have heart disease, you need careful monitoring while using Sildenafil-50. Avoid strenuous physical activity after taking it, and discuss this with your doctor before starting treatment.
Medication Interactions
Some medications interact negatively with Sildenafil. Specifically, nitrates (used for chest pain) are contraindicated. Other medications, like alpha-blockers and certain antifungals, may also cause issues. Provide your doctor with a complete list of all your medications, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements.
Vision Changes
Report any sudden vision loss or changes in color vision immediately. These are potential side effects, and prompt medical attention is necessary.
Alcohol and Sildenafil-50
Excessive alcohol consumption can worsen Sildenafil’s side effects. Moderate your alcohol intake while using this medication.
Prolonged Erection
Seek immediate medical help if you experience a prolonged or painful erection (priapism) lasting more than four hours. This is a serious complication that requires prompt treatment.
Contraindications
Do not use Sildenafil-50 if you have severe heart problems, uncontrolled high blood pressure, recent heart attack or stroke, or known hypersensitivity to Sildenafil or any of its ingredients. Your doctor will determine if you are a suitable candidate for this medication.
