A new study from Health Canada warns that the drug Viagra can have potentially serious side effects if taken on an empty stomach. The drug is sold under the brand names Cialis and Levitra.
Researchers from the University of British Columbia’s School of Pharmacy in Vancouver were asked to compare the safety and efficacy of sildenafil, Viagra’s main ingredient, versus placebo and other drugs known to be associated with severe side effects, such as headaches, dizziness and indigestion.
The findings, released in, are published online in theBritish Journal of Medicine.
“This is a significant finding,” said lead author Dr. Steven Leven, a senior investigator at the University of British Columbia’s School of Pharmacy.
The drug was developed by a Canadian company called Mylan, and was only available for research purposes at the time.
In the study, participants took sildenafil (a phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitor) or a placebo tablet. After 24 hours, Viagra, Cialis or Levitra were found to significantly reduce symptoms of the following conditions:
The researchers concluded that Viagra and Cialis “may be potentially dangerous” and recommended that they be re-tested as well.
“It is important to note that Viagra and other ED drugs are not FDA-approved for use in women, and the safety and efficacy of sildenafil in women who have a history of impotence or have a history of erectile dysfunction should be thoroughly evaluated,” said Leven.
“Our findings suggest that sildenafil may pose a potential risk for women who are currently taking ED drugs to have a more serious and potentially dangerous side effect.”
Researchers found that the menopausal symptoms they observed for the menopause group were significantly more severe than the women who had not had a menopause.Viagra was the top selling drug in Canada, selling $4.3 billion worldwide in 2010. It was a success that also led to the approval of another drug, Viagra, in the United States in 2011. It was also approved to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension, a form of high blood pressure.
“We were told that Viagra was the best treatment option for women who were not taking a PDE5 inhibitor,” Leven said.
However, other researchers also noted that sildenafil was associated with increased rates of sexual side effects, including erectile dysfunction, but the study did not look specifically at sexual side effects.
Viagra was also associated with a higher incidence of cardiovascular problems, such as heart attacks and strokes. However, the researchers noted that there was no evidence that Viagra was causing these problems.
“The authors should weigh the potential risks and benefits of Viagra against any potential harm they could expect from it,” said Leven.
