Precautions

This drug is for the treatment of erectile dysfunction. Before use, one must be accurately diagnosed by a physician to determine the cause of the erectile dysfunction. As it may impose a burden on the heart during sexual activity, patients with cardiovascular diseases must have their heart condition evaluated before taking this medication, and if any cardiac-related symptoms occur during sexual activity, they must stop immediately and consult a doctor. If an erection lasts for more than 4 hours after taking this medication or if it's accompanied by pain, one must visit a medical institution immediately, as failure to treat can result in penile tissue damage and permanent erectile dysfunction. This drug should not be taken with nitrate medications as it can cause a rapid drop in blood pressure, and patients who are taking nitrates must never use it and avoid nitrates during its use. Patients with significant cardiovascular diseases such as myocardial infarction, unstable angina, heart failure, or stroke, or who have had these conditions recently, should not take this medication. Patients with certain hereditary retinal diseases or hypersensitivity to this medication or its components should also not use it. It is not recommended to take this medication together with other erectile dysfunction treatments due to lack of safety and efficacy confirmation. Individuals with severely impaired kidney or liver function need to take special precautions, and side effects such as decreased blood pressure may occur when used with certain drugs, thus they should consult a doctor. While taking this medication, side effects such as headaches, indigestion, back pain, muscle pain, flushing, limb pain, nasopharyngitis, upper respiratory infections, cough, diarrhea, abdominal pain, dizziness, drowsiness, and others may occur, but these symptoms are usually mild or temporary. This medication is not for use by women, children, or newborns, and its safety during pregnancy has not been established. There is almost no effect on driving or operating machinery, but dizziness and other symptoms may occur, so caution is advised. In case of overdose, immediate medical attention is required, and this medication is not effectively eliminated through hemodialysis. When storing, keep it in a sealed container to prevent exposure to air or moisture, and maintain a storage temperature between 1 and 30 degrees Celsius at room temperature. Taking these steps helps preserve the medication's effectiveness and prevents degradation.
