For Healthcare Professionals
Applies to sildenafil: intravenous solution, oral suspension, oral tablet
General
The most common adverse reactions reported in clinical trials are headache, flushing, dyspepsia, abnormal vision, nasal congestion, back pain, myalgia, nausea, dizziness, and rash.[Ref]
Cardiovascular
Very common (10% or more): Flushing (10%)
Uncommon (0.1% to 1%): Heart rate increased, palpitations, tachycardia, hypertension, hypotension
Rare (less than 0.1%): Myocardial infarction, atrial fibrillation, sudden cardiac death, ventricular arrhythmia, unstable angina
Frequency not reported: Ventricular arrhythmia, sudden cardiac death, angina pectoris, AV block, tachycardia, palpitation, hypotension, postural hypotension, myocardial ischemia, cerebral thrombosis, cardiac arrest, heart failure, abnormal electrocardiogram, cardiomyopathy, shock
Postmarketing reports: Serious cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, and vascular events, including myocardial infarction; sudden cardiac death; ventricular arrhythmia; cerebrovascular hemorrhage; transient ischemic attack; hypertension; subarachnoid, intracerebral, and pulmonary hemorrhage have been reported in temporal association with the use of this drug.[Ref]
Gastrointestinal
Very common (10% or more): Dyspepsia (up to 17%), diarrhea
Common (1% to 10%): Nausea, vomiting, dry mouth, gastritis, gastroesophageal reflux disease, hemorrhoids, abdominal distension
Rare (less than 0.1%): Oral hypoesthesia
Frequency not reported: Glossitis, colitis, dysphagia, gastroenteritis, esophagitis, stomatitis, gingivitis[Ref]
Musculoskeletal
Very common (10% or more): Pain in extremity
Common (1% to 10%): Back pain, myalgia
Frequency not reported: Arthritis, arthrosis, myalgia, tendon rupture, tenosynovitis, bone pain, myasthenia, synovitis[Ref]
Nervous system
Very common (10% or more): Headache (up to 28%)
Common (1% to 10%): Dizziness, migraine, tremor, paresthesia, burning sensation
Uncommon (0.1% to 1%): Somnolence, hypoesthesia
Rare (less than 0.1%): Cerebrovascular accident, syncope
Frequency not reported: Transient ischemic attack, seizure, seizure recurrence, ataxia, hypertonia, neuralgia, neuropathy, paresthesia, somnolence, reflexes decreased
Postmarketing reports: Transient global amnesia[Ref]
Ocular
Very common (10% or more): Abnormal vision (up to 11%)
Common (1% to 10%): Visual color distortion, retinal hemorrhage, visual impairment, vision blurred, photophobia, chromatopsia, cyanopsia, eye irritation, ocular hyperemia
Uncommon (0.1% to 1%): Conjunctival disorders, eye disorders, eye pain, lacrimation disorders, visual acuity reduced, diplopia, abnormal sensation in eye, photopsia, visual brightness, conjunctivitis
Rare (less than 0.1%): Retinal hemorrhage, arteriosclerotic retinopathy, retinal disorder, glaucoma, visual field defect, myopia, asthenopia, vitreous floaters, iris disorder, mydriasis, halo vision, eye edema, eye swelling, eyelid edema, scleral discoloration
Frequency not reported: Non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION), retinal vascular occlusion, visual field defect, cataract[Ref]
This drug has lesser affinity for isoenzyme PDE6, an enzyme found in the retina. This lower selectivity is thought to be the basis for abnormalities related to color vision observed with higher doses or plasma levels.
Nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy developed in one eye within minutes to hours after ingestion of sildenafil. Four of the five patients had no vascular risk factors for ischemic optic neuropathy.
-Abnormal Vision: Mild to moderate and transient, predominantly color tinge to vision, but also increased sensitivity to light, or blurred vision.
-Visual color distortions: Chloropsia, chromatopsia, cyanopsia, erythropsia and xanthopsia

Common (1% to 10%): Anemia
Frequency not reported: Leukopenia
Postmarketing reports: In patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (secondary to sickle cell disease) taking Revatio (R), vaso-occlusive crises requiring hospitalization were more commonly reported. The clinical relevance of this finding in male patients treated with sildenafil (the active ingredient contained in Viagra) for erectile dysfunction is unknown.[Ref]
Metabolic
Common (1% to 10%): Fluid retention
Frequency not reported: Thirst, edema, gout, unstable diabetes, hyperglycemia, hyperuricemia, hypoglycemic reaction, hypernatremia[Ref]
