Cenforce 100 mg, which contains Sildenafil Citrate (the active ingredient in Viagra), should not be taken with nitrates. Why Can't They Be Taken Together? Both Cenforce (and other medications containing Sildenafil Citrate) and nitrate medications (such as nitroglycerin or isosorbide dinitrate, which are commonly prescribed for chest pain or angina) lower blood pressure. When taken together, the combination can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure, potentially leading to serious health complications, such as: Severe dizziness Fainting Heart attack or stroke in extreme cases due to inadequate blood Cenforce 100 mg to vital organs Mechanism: Sildenafil works by inhibiting the PDE5 enzyme, which relaxes the blood vessels and improves blood flow to the penis, helping to treat erectile dysfunction. Nitrates, on the other hand, relax blood vessels as well, increasing blood flow to the heart, which helps relieve angina (chest pain). However, when combined with Sildenafil, this effect is enhanced excessively, leading to a potentially dangerous drop in blood pressure. What to Do If You Need Both Treatments: If you are prescribed Cenforce for erectile dysfunction and also need to use nitrates for a heart condition: Never take them together. Talk to your doctor: They may adjust your medications or suggest alternatives. There are medications for erectile dysfunction that do not interact with nitrates, and your doctor will be able to recommend the safest treatment plan for you. Conclusion:
