What are the precautions/warnings concerning Apcalis?
Men who are taking medicines that contain nitrates (Nitroglycerin) of any kind must never use Apcalis. Patients should
not take Apcalis even if you only take nitroglycerin medication occasionally.
There is also a potential for cardiac risk during sexual activity in patients with pre-existing cardiovascular
disease. Therefore, Apcalis should not be used in men where sexual activity is inadvisable because of their
underlying cardiovascular status.
Individuals should inform their physician concerning all medications they are taking, including those medications
acquired by a prescription as well as over the counter medicines.
The use of Apcalis offers no protection against sexually transmitted diseases, including HIV. Patients should
continue to use protective measures necessary to guard against these diseases. In case of an overdose, call your
physician immediately.
