Take Viagra approximately one hour before sexual activity. This allows sufficient time for the medication to reach peak concentration in your bloodstream.
Consume Viagra on an empty stomach or with a light meal. Fatty foods can significantly delay absorption, reducing its potency. A small snack is preferable to a large, heavy meal.
Maintain a healthy lifestyle. Regular exercise, a balanced diet, and stress management significantly improve overall health and can positively influence Viagra’s efficacy. Avoid excessive alcohol consumption, as it can interfere with its action.
Managing potential side effects
Mild side effects, such as headaches or flushing, are common. Staying hydrated by drinking plenty of water can help mitigate these. If severe side effects occur, consult your doctor immediately.
