elgenon Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 A good friend (60s) recently had a heart attack and died. No apparent heart health issues. His best friend thinks it might have to do with taking viagra to keep up with younger women in the US. Since I don't know much about his health, I just was wondering if people have noticed a correlation between viagra and such and heart attacks. Just asking for anecdotal information not deep science.

In the US? Was not aware many even looked at older men for such reasons. ???? A heart attack would be a health issue - expect most of us at 60 may not be aware of our internal conditions if no obvious health issues presenting symptoms.

RJRS1301 Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 There are documented cases of Viagra being involved in cardiac episodes, in fact the contraindication for use is any cardiac or blood pressure issues. The matter is further complicated if using other stimulants or amyl type products Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farangwithaplan Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Not sure about heart issues but I do remember reading that Viagra was very effective in helping severe sunburn patients get sleep. It helps to keep the top bed sheet off the skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very much true. My best friend is a cardiologist and has told me as much. If you have underlying circulatory issues and heart problems, Viagra can make things much worse. There is a heart drug that is also contraindicated for use with Viagra. I believe that cardiologists are the second most prescribers of Viagra, after urologists.

bkk6060 Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 What an odd post/topic. Younger women in the US and he died? Noticed a correlation? I guess you think some on TV have done research on this? OK, whatever. You are asking a very serious medical issue if you are so concerned I suggest you consult a good Doctor and ask your questions.

That he did not know he had heart problem doesn't mean that he didn't have underlying coronary artery disease tat he was unaware of. There is a good reason why this is prescription only.

sunnyboy2018 Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Viagara was originally invented as a blood pressure drug. I doubt viagara causes heart problems but the physical activity it engenders might be. Cialis on the other hand is thought to be good for work outs.

In other words, if I believe I may have a cardiovascular condition that would make taking Viagara dangerous, I am certainly going to consult with a Cardiologist before an eye doctor. Hence, he/she would be the doctor indicating it was okay to use Viagara, and thus the doctor likely to prescribe it. Likewise, urologists are frequently consulted for issues with "the tool".

So viagra solves problems? I have a friend who takes Flomax and 5mg of Cialis for frequent urination. What things are you aware of? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
