Additional official information
Background{"text":"Homosildenafil is an unauthorized substance similar to sildenafil. Sildenafil should only be used under the supervision of a healthcare practitioner. Products containing sildenafil or similar substances (known as analogs) should never be used by individuals taking any kind of nitrate drug (e.g. nitroglycerine) as it can cause potentially life-threatening low blood pressure. Individuals with heart problems including high blood pressure, a history of heart attack, stroke, abnormal heart beat or chest pain are at higher risk of cardiovascular side effects if they engage in sexual activity. Other possible side effects of using sildenafil include headache, facial flushing, indigestion, dizziness, abnormal vision and hearing loss."}
