Viagra (sildenafil) is typically taken as needed, approximately one hour before sexual activity. The recommended starting dose is 50 mg.
Adjusting Your Dose
Your doctor may adjust your dose based on your response and individual needs. The dose can be increased to 100 mg or decreased to 25 mg. Never exceed 100 mg in a 24-hour period.
Taking Viagra
Take Viagra with a glass of water. You can take it with or without food, but a high-fat meal may slightly delay its effect. Avoid consuming grapefruit or grapefruit juice, as they can interact with Viagra and increase its concentration in your blood.
Frequency of Use
Do not take Viagra more than once a day. Discuss the appropriate frequency of use with your physician.
Missed Dose
If you miss a dose and still intend to engage in sexual activity, take it as soon as you remember, provided it is at least 4 hours before your intended sexual activity. Otherwise, wait until the next day and consult your physician if needed.
Storage
Store Viagra at room temperature, away from moisture and heat. Keep it in its original container to protect it from light.
