This medication can cause vasodilation, leading to decreased blood pressure; therefore, patients taking nitrates or other antihypertensives should not use it. Patients with cardiovascular diseases must check their heart condition before using this medication, as sexual activity may be hazardous for patients with weak hearts. It can temporarily lower blood pressure, leading to dizziness or fainting; patients with hypertension or hypotension should be particularly cautious. If an erection lasts longer than 4 hours, immediate medical help is required to prevent permanent damage. Special care is necessary when administering this medication to patients with severely impaired liver or kidney function, arrhythmias, or heart failure. Combining this medication with certain drugs may excessively increase serum concentration, raising the risk of side effects, so it is vital to consult a doctor or pharmacist. Patients with hereditary conditions like phenylketonuria should avoid this medication due to the artificial sweetener content. This medication is not for use in pregnant women or individuals under 18. Caution should be exercised when driving or operating machinery, as dizziness or visual disturbances may occur during treatment. If severe headaches, chest pain, vision changes, hearing loss, etc., occur, consult a doctor immediately. Combining this medication with other erectile dysfunction treatments or nitrates is risky and should be avoided. Elderly patients or those with impaired liver or kidney function should start with a reduced dose and follow a doctor's instructions to minimize the risk of adverse reactions. This medication does not prevent sexually transmitted diseases, so appropriate protective measures should be used during sexual intercourse.
