Some side effects of Viagra include allergic reactions (such as itching, hives, swelling in the hands or face, swelling or tingling in the throat or mouth, chest tightness, and trouble breathing). Other side effects include difficulty breathing, a severe or sudden headache, and chest pain. Some other side effects of Viagra are fainting, lightheadedness, dizziness, sudden loss of vision, an uneven heartbeat, and a sudden decrease in hearing. If you experience any of these side effects, it is very important to contact your doctor as soon as possible, as they could compromise your health. Some less severe side effects of Viagra include nosebleeds, headaches, stuffy or runny nose, a queasy stomach, and redness or warmth in the neck, arms, upper chest, and face. Other brand names for Viagra are Revatio and Sildenafil. Viagra should be taken approximately one hour before engaging in sexual activity, and should not exceed more than one dosage per every 24 hours if treating erectile dysfunction. If treating pulmonary arterial hypertension, however, this medicine should be taken three times a day, four to six hours apart. It is also possible to take Viagra in the form of an oral liquid by syringe. When talking to your doctor about taking Viagra, it is important to discuss whether you have kidney or liver disease.
