Patients with heart or vascular problems must confirm their cardiovascular status before taking this medication, and it is safer not to use it in cases of severe heart diseases. As this medication is a treatment for erectile dysfunction and may burden the heart during sexual intercourse, patients with cardiovascular disease should exercise caution. Sudden drops in blood pressure may occur, so patients with very low or high blood pressure should avoid taking this medication. Rarely, symptoms of an erection lasting more than 4 hours may occur, in which case medical attention should be sought immediately. This drug can significantly increase plasma concentrations when taken with certain protease inhibitors, raising the risk of side effects, so caution is advised. Patients with phenylketonuria should not take this medication due to the presence of artificial sweeteners. This medication should not be used in children under 18 years of age and women, and dose adjustment is necessary for the elderly and patients with hepatic or renal failure. Dizziness or visual disturbances may occur when driving or operating machinery, so caution is advised. Combining this medication with other erectile dysfunction treatments is not recommended due to unverified safety. In case of overdose, symptoms such as headache, flushing, dizziness, dyspepsia may worsen, so the prescribed dosage and administration guidelines must be strictly followed.
