The Facts:
VIAGRA has been tested in more
than 120 controlled studies (completed and ongoing)
including over 8,800 men. Through these studies and
its real-world experience, VIAGRA has been shown to
have a strong safety record. VIAGRA has helped more
than 16 million men around the world improve their sex
lives.
You may be taking medicine for
high blood pressure. If so, you should also be glad
to know that, of the nearly 10 million men in the US
who have taken VIAGRA, more than 1 million of them have
also taken medicines for high blood pressure.

of VIAGRA® (sildenafil citrate) are headache, facial
flushing, and upset stomach. Less commonly bluish vision,
blurred vision, or sensitivity to light may briefly
occur.
Important safety
information
VIAGRA has been shown to successfully
treat ED in many men. But remember, no medicine is for
everyone.
- If you use nitrate drugs,
often used to control chest pain (also known as angina)
don’t take VIAGRA. Since VIAGRA also reduces blood
pressure, your blood pressure could suddenly drop
to an unsafe or life-threatening level.
- Remember to discuss your general
health status with your doctor to ensure that you
are healthy enough to engage in sexual activity.
- If you experience chest pain,
nausea, or any other discomforts during sex or an
erection that lasts longer than 4 hours, seek immediate
medical help. Remember to protect yourself and your
partner from sexually transmitted diseases.
