Vilitra (which contains Vardenafil, a PDE5 inhibitor like sildenafil and tadalafil) can be dangerous for heart patients under certain conditions. Here’s a detailed explanation: Why Vilitra Can Be Risky for Heart Patients: Blood Pressure Effects: Vilitra works by relaxing blood vessels to increase blood flow to the penis, which can lower blood pressure. For heart patients, especially those with unstable angina, severe heart failure, or hypotension, this sudden drop can be risky. Interaction with Nitrates: The most dangerous interaction occurs if Vilitra is taken with nitrate medications (used for chest pain, such as nitroglycerin). This combination can Vilitra a severe and potentially life-threatening drop in blood pressure. Heart Stress During Sexual Activity: Sexual activity itself increases heart rate and blood pressure. In patients with recent heart attacks, severe arrhythmias, or advanced heart disease, combining sex with a PDE5 inhibitor may strain the heart. Safe Use Recommendations: Always consult a cardiologist or doctor before taking Vilitra if you have heart disease. Avoid nitrates completely while on Vilitra. Start at a low dose under medical supervision, and monitor for symptoms like dizziness, chest pain, or shortness of breath.
