Not safe for everyone

Although Cialis, Viagra and Levitra can help many people, not all men can safely take them. PDE-5 inhibitors may worsen certain medical conditions and interact with a number of drugs. Erectile dysfunction medications are dangerous when used with nitrate medications, such as nitroglycerin (Nitro-Dur, others), often prescribed to compare or treat acute angina (chest pain due to coronary artery disease). Both types of medication dilate blood vessels, and their combined effects can cause dizziness, low blood pressure and loss of consciousness.

In rare cases, men using PDE-5 inhibitors have suffered permanent, total vision loss due to nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION). Because NAION and erectile dysfunction share many of the same risk factors, it’s unclear whether the drug or an underlying condition is responsible. If you’re considering an erectile dysfunction drug but have a retinal disorder, such as diabetic retinopathy, see your eye doctor first.
