Viagra Oral Jelly

Common Use

Viagra Jelly is a jelly solution for the treatment of male erectile dysfunction called impotence. It increases blood flow to the penis allowing more blood flow into the penis as it happens naturally when a man is sexually stimulated.

Dosage and Direction

Viagra Jelly should be taken once a day as needed. In patients taking certain protease inhibitors (such as for the treatment of HIV), it is recommended to not exceed a maximum single dose of 25 mg of Viagra Jelly in a 48-hour period.

Precautions

Before using Viagra, tell your doctor about all medications you use for erectile dysfunction or if you are using any of the following medications:

• bosentan (Tracleer);
• a blood thinner such as warfarin (Coumadin);
• cimetidine (Tagamet, Tagamet HB);
• an antibiotic such as erythromycin (E-Mycin, Eryc, Ery-Tab) or clarithromycin (Biaxin);
• doxazosin (Cardura), prazosin (Minipress), Terazosin (Hytrin);
• HIV medicines such as amprenavir (Agenerase), tipranavir (Aptivus), darunavir (Prezista), efavirenz (Sustiva), nevirapine (Viramune), indinavir (Crixivan), saquinavir (Invirase, Fortovase), lopinavir/ritonavir (Kaletra), fosamprenavir (Lexiva), ritonavir (Norvir), atazanavir (Reyataz), or nelfinavir (Viracept);
• an antifungal medication such as itraconazole (Sporanox) or ketoconazole (Nizoral);
• carbamazepine (Tegretol), phenobarbital (Luminal), or phenytoin (Dilantin);
• or rifampin (Rifadin, Rimactane) or rifabutin (Mycobutin).

If you have heart problems severe enough to make sexual activity dangerous, you should avoid using Viagra. Use it cautiously if you've had a heart attack, stroke, or life-threatening heart irregularities within the past 6 months. Be equally cautious if you have severe high or low blood pressure, heart failure, or unstable angina.

Contraindications

Do not take Viagra Jelly if you use nitrate drugs such as nitroglycerin. The combination of Viagra Jelly and nitrates can make your blood pressure suddenly drop to unsafe levels. You could get dizzy, faint, or even have a heart attack or stroke.
