If any cardiac-related symptoms occur during or after sexual activity, sexual activity should be stopped immediately and a doctor should be notified. Rarely, an erection lasting more than 4 hours can occur after taking this medication; in such cases, immediate medical assistance should be obtained. If prolonged erection is not treated, damage to the penile tissue and permanent loss of erectile function may occur.
