Precautions

This medication is intended for the treatment of erectile dysfunction, and it is essential to receive a doctor's diagnosis and physical examination before use. Sexual activity can place a strain on the heart, so patients with cardiovascular diseases should exercise caution. If an erection lasts more than 4 hours, immediate medical attention must be sought, as untreated prolonged erections can lead to tissue damage of the penis and permanent loss of erectile function. This medication must not be taken with nitrate preparations, as it can dangerously lower blood pressure. Therefore, it must be avoided in combination. Patients who have recently had serious cardiovascular conditions such as myocardial infarction, stroke, or unstable angina should not use this medication. Patients with hereditary retinal diseases or specific optic nerve problems should also avoid taking this medication. Using this medication in conjunction with other erectile dysfunction treatments is not recommended. Patients with severe kidney or liver dysfunction should exercise caution when using this medication, as symptoms of low blood pressure may occur when taken with certain antihypertensive medications. Patients should be cautious with alcohol consumption while taking this medication, especially when taken with large amounts of alcohol, as dizziness or blood pressure drops may occur.

Serious cardiovascular adverse reactions and issues with vision and hearing, as well as allergic reactions, have been reported, so immediate medical attention should be sought for any unusual symptoms. This medication is not intended for use by women, children, or newborns, and its safety during pregnancy has not been established.
