Vidalista 60 mg is commonly marketed as containing tadalafil, a PDE5 inhibitor used for erectile dysfunction (ED). A history of stroke does not automatically mean every man must avoid tadalafil, but men with a recent stroke or unstable cardiovascular health should not use it without medical evaluation.
Vidalista 60 mg deserves particular caution because 60 mg is substantially higher than the usual maximum recommended tadalafil dose for ED (20 mg when taken as needed). Higher doses can increase adverse effects, including low blood pressure, dizziness, headache, and fainting.
Men who should generally avoid tadalafil until cleared by a healthcare professional include those who:
Had a stroke recently, particularly if recovery or cardiovascular status is incomplete.
Have unstable heart disease or have been advised to avoid sexual activity.
Have very low blood pressure or uncontrolled high blood pressure.
Take nitrate medicines, such as nitroglycerin or isosorbide; combining nitrates with tadalafil can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure.
Take certain interacting medicines or have significant liver or kidney problems.
Men recovering from a stroke should have their medications, blood pressure, cardiovascular condition, and ability to safely engage in sexual activity reviewed before using tadalafil.
Do not self-medicate with Vidalista 60 mg or increase the dose if a lower dose seems ineffective. A healthcare professional can determine whether tadalafil is appropriate and select a safer dose.
Seek emergency care for chest pain, fainting, sudden vision or hearing loss, or an erection lasting more than four hours.
