Levitra 20mg, like other medications, can cause side effects. Common side effects include headache, flushing, nasal congestion, and indigestion. These are usually mild and temporary. Less common, but still possible, are visual disturbances like blurred vision or changes in color perception. Rarely, more serious side effects such as sudden vision loss, hearing loss, or prolonged erection (priapism) may occur. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience any of these serious side effects.
Medication Interactions
Levitra can interact with certain medications, particularly nitrates used to treat chest pain. Combining these can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure. Inform your doctor about all medications you are taking, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements, before starting Levitra. Grapefruit juice can also affect how Levitra is processed by your body; avoid it while taking the medication.
Precautions
Levitra isn’t suitable for everyone. Men with heart conditions, low blood pressure, liver or kidney problems, or a history of stroke should discuss the risks with their doctor before using Levitra. It’s also not recommended for men with certain eye conditions. Finally, alcohol consumption can increase the likelihood of side effects; moderate your intake while using Levitra.
