A member asked:
I've never had a problem using viagra (sildenafil) and have had bypass surgery,recently i had to have a stent after 15 yrs of heart surgery.can i still take viagra (sildenafil)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Viagra (sildenafil) and stent: This question needs to be asked of your doctor/cardiologist who knows you, your condition and your medications. If you are taking nitrates as part of your medications then you can't use the viagra (sildenafil) type drugs. Ask your Doc to explain all this to you.
