A study warns that taking Viagra in combination with common chest pain medications, such as nitrates, could lead to a higher risk of complications, including death, for men suffering from heart problems. The risk of complications could occur up to 28 days after Viagra was prescribed to patients already receiving nitrates. The study suggests that men prescribed both drugs had a higher risk for adverse health outcomes compared to those taking nitrates alone. Researchers emphasize the need for careful consideration before prescribing erectile dysfunction medication to men receiving nitrate treatment.
