Levitra, like all medications, can cause side effects. Common ones include headache, flushing, nasal congestion, and indigestion. These are usually mild and temporary.
More serious, though rare, side effects include vision changes (such as blurred vision or sudden vision loss), hearing loss, and prolonged erection (priapism). Seek immediate medical attention if you experience any of these.
Certain medications interact with Levitra. Specifically, nitrates (used to treat chest pain) are contraindicated. Combining them can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure. Discuss all your medications, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements, with your doctor before starting Levitra.
Grapefruit juice can also interact with Levitra, increasing its levels in your blood. Limit your grapefruit juice consumption while taking Levitra.
Alcohol can enhance Levitra’s side effects. Moderate alcohol consumption is advisable. Always follow your doctor’s instructions regarding dosage and usage.
