How to relieve Viagra side effects

Most of Viagra's mild side effects disappear within a few hours after taking your dose or are readily relieved. For example, lying down and resting can typically relieve headaches, flushes, and dizziness. Avoiding alcohol will also aid in the reduction of these negative effects. Turning off any bright lights around you can also help with headaches and light sensitivity. If you experience bothersome headaches while using Viagra, consult your doctor or pharmacist for a pain medication that is safe for you to take.

If you get indigestion after using Viagra, try taking it with a snack or light meal. Just keep in mind that if you do this, Viagra may take slightly longer to kick in. (This is especially true if you combine your dose with a high-fat meal.) If your indigestion is bothering you, ask your doctor or pharmacist for medicine to assist in relieving your symptoms.

Remember that certain side effects are more common with greater Viagra doses. Headaches, flushing, indigestion, nasal congestion, and changes in vision are among the side effects. If these side effects worry you, talk to your doctor about taking a lower dose of Viagra.
