Warnings and Precautions of Penegra

Precautions:

If you have a history of allergy to Penegra, avoid taking it. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience symptoms like skin rash, itching/swelling (especially of the face/tongue/throat), severe dizziness, or difficulty breathing.

Be cautious with nitrate-containing medicines. If you’re prescribed medicines like Nitroglycerin or Isosorbide, avoid taking Penegra as it can dangerously lower blood pressure and lead to cardiovascular collapse. You may also experience increased risks of side effects like dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, headache, flushing, heart palpitations, and priapism (prolonged and painful erection).

Avoid Penegra if you’re on Riociguat for pulmonary arterial hypertension, as it can significantly lower your blood pressure and increase risks of dizziness, fainting, flushing, headache, and nasal congestion.

If you have cardiac insufficiency (heart failure) or severe unstable angina, do not take Penegra. Sexual activity is also not recommended in such cases due to the potential risk of a heart attack.

Warnings:

Hypotension: Penegra can cause mild and short-lasting hypotension as it relaxes blood vessels. Exercise caution if you’re also taking medication for lowering high blood pressure.

Priapism: Penegra may cause priapism, a painful erection lasting over 4 hours, which can damage penile tissues and lead to permanent loss of potency. Seek immediate medical assistance if an erection persists longer than 4 hours.

Loss of hearing: There’s a risk of sudden hearing loss, sometimes with tinnitus or dizziness. Penegra is not recommended if you have hearing issues. Promptly seek medical attention if you experience hearing loss after taking this medicine.

Surgery: Inform your doctor if you are taking Penegra before undergoing any surgery, as it can cause a severe drop in blood pressure when combined with anaesthesia and other drugs used during surgery.
