Can hypertensive patients eat Viagra

Patient's question:

My friend has recently been experiencing frequent dizziness, neurasthenia, and difficulty sleeping, feeling completely weak all over. At first, they didn't pay much attention, thinking it was just due to being tired from work, so they didn't take it seriously. The other day, when the company organized a health check-up, they discovered that their blood pressure was slightly high. The doctor then advised my friend to go to a nearby hospital for a thorough examination. After the thorough examination, it was confirmed to be high blood pressure. Can people with high blood pressure eat this?

Doctor's answer:

Viagra can increase blood pressure, and taking it under high blood pressure conditions poses certain risks. Therefore, in your current condition, it is not recommended to take Viagra. You should control your weight and coordinate with traditional Chinese medicine to stabilize the root cause and blood supply. Do not take antihypertensive drugs alone. Hypertension is a chronic condition characterized by persistently high blood pressure, which can lead to diseases such as stroke, heart disease, aneurysms, and kidney failure. Avoid smoking, as nicotine in cigarettes can stimulate the heart and blood vessels, causing blood pressure to drop and accelerating the formation of atherosclerosis. Reduce intake of animal fats and avoid consuming animal organs.
