What Is ViagraŽ?
ViagraŽ is a pill used to treat erectile dysfunction (impotence) in men. It can help many men who have erectile dysfunction get and keep an erection when they become sexually excited (stimulated).

How To Take ViagraŽ
Take ViagraŽ about one hour before you plan to have sex. Beginning in about 30 minutes and for up to 4 hours, ViagraŽ can help you get an erection if you are sexually excited. If you take ViagraŽ after a high-fat meal (such as a cheeseburger and french fries), the medicine may take a little longer to start working. ViagraŽ can help you get an erection when you are sexually excited. You will not get an erection just by taking the pill.
How Sex Affects the Body
When a man is sexually excited, the penis rapidly fills with more blood than usual. The penis then expands and hardens. This is called an erection. After the man is done having sex, this extra blood flows out of the penis back into the body. The erection goes away. If an erection lasts for a long time (more than 6 hours), it can permanently damage your penis. You should call a doctor immediately if you ever have a prolonged erection that lasts more than 4 hours. Some conditions and medicines interfere with this natural erection process. The penis cannot fill with enough blood. The man cannot have an erection. This is called erectile dysfunction if it becomes a frequent problem. During sex, your heart works harder. Therefore sexual activity may not be advisable for people who have heart problems. Before you start any treatment for erectile dysfunction, ask your doctor if your heart is healthy enough to handle the extra strain of having sex. If you have chest pains, dizziness or nausea during sex, stop having sex and immediately tell your doctor you have had this problem.
How ViagraŽ Works
ViagraŽ enables many men with erectile dysfunction to respond to sexual stimulation. When a man is sexually excited, ViagraŽ helps the penis fill with enough blood to cause an erection. After sex is over, the erection goes away.
ViagraŽ Is Not for Everyone
As noted above, ask your doctor if your heart is healthy enough for sexual activity. If you take any medicines that contain nitrates - either regularly or as needed - you should never take ViagraŽ. If you take ViagraŽ with any nitrate medicine or recreational drug containing nitrates, your blood pressure could suddenly drop to an unsafe level. You could get dizzy, faint, or even have a heart attack or stroke. Nitrates are found in many prescription medicines that are used to treat angina (chest pain due to heart disease) such as: nitroglycerin (sprays, ointments, skin patches or pastes, and tablets that are swallowed or dissolved in the mouth) isosorbide mononitrate and isosorbide dinitrate (tablets that are swallowed, chewed, or dissolved in the mouth) Nitrates are also found in recreational drugs such as amyl nitrate or nitrite ("poppers"). If you are not sure if any of your medicines contain nitrates, or if you do not understand what nitrates are, ask your doctor or pharmacist. ViagraŽ is only for patients with erectile dysfunction. ViagraŽ is not for newborns, children, or women. Do not let anyone else take your ViagraŽ. ViagraŽ must be used only under a doctor's supervision.
What ViagraŽ Does Not Do
ViagraŽ does not cure erectile dysfunction. It is a treatment for erectile dysfunction. ViagraŽ does not protect you or your partner from getting sexually transmitted diseases, including HIV-the virus that causes AIDS. ViagraŽ is not a hormone or an aphrodisiac.
What To Tell Your Doctor Before You Begin ViagraŽ
Only your doctor can decide if ViagraŽ is right for you. ViagraŽ can cause mild, temporary lowering of your blood pressure. You will need to have a thorough medical exam to diagnose your erectile dysfunction and to find out if you can safely take ViagraŽ alone or with your other medicines. Your doctor should determine if your heart is healthy enough to handle the extra strain of having sex. Be sure to tell your doctor if you: have ever had any heart problems (e.g., angina, chest pain, heart failure, irregular heart beats, or heart attack) have ever had a stroke have low or high blood pressure have a rare inherited eye disease called retinitis pigmentosa have ever had any kidney problems have ever had any liver problems have ever had any blood problems, including sickle cell anemia or leukemia are allergic to sildenafil or any of the other ingredients of ViagraŽ tablets have a deformed penis, Peyronie's disease, or ever had an erection that lasted more than 4 hours have stomach ulcers or any types of bleeding problems are taking any other medicines.
Possible Side Effects
Like all medicines, ViagraŽ can cause some side effects. These effects are usually mild to moderate and usually don't last longer than a few hours. Some of these side effects are more likely to occur with higher doses. The most common side effects of ViagraŽ are headache, flushing of the face, and upset stomach. Less common side effects that may occur are temporary changes in color vision (such as trouble telling the difference between blue and green objects or having a blue color tinge to them), eyes being more sensitive to light, or blurred vision.
ViagraŽ and Other Medicines
Some medicines can change the way ViagraŽ works. Tell your doctor about any medicines you are taking. Do not start or stop taking any medicines before checking with your doctor or pharmacist. This includes prescription and nonprescription medicines or remedies. Remember, ViagraŽ should never be used with medicines that contain nitrates If you are taking a protease inhibitor, your dose may be adjusted.
