Consult your doctor before using Levitra, especially if you have heart problems, low blood pressure, or a history of stroke. Levitra can lower blood pressure, potentially causing dizziness or fainting.
Common side effects include headache, flushing, nasal congestion, and indigestion. These are usually mild and temporary. However, report any persistent or severe side effects to your physician immediately.
Rare but Serious Side Effects
Rarely, Levitra can cause more serious side effects like vision changes (blurred vision, sudden vision loss), hearing loss, prolonged erection (priapism), and allergic reactions. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience any of these.
Avoid grapefruit juice while taking Levitra, as it can increase Levitra’s concentration in your blood, potentially leading to increased side effects. Alcohol can also interact with Levitra, so limit your intake.
Levitra’s effectiveness can vary depending on individual factors. Follow your doctor’s prescribed dosage and instructions carefully. Do not exceed the recommended dose. If you experience no improvement or worsening of symptoms, contact your doctor for advice.
