Viagra and Nitrates

Viagra® has been shown to potentiate the hypotensive effects of nitrates to life threatening levels. Therefore, individuals who are currently using nitrates in any form even intermittently should not take Viagra®.

Nitrates are available in many medications; sprays, ointments, skin patches, pastes and tablets dissolved in the mouth. Nitrates are also found in illicit drugs such as amyl nitrate or nitrite "Poppers". If you are unsure if you are currently taking nitrates please value your health and consult with your local physician or pharmacist.
