New Caution On Viagra As Man Dies After Two Pills

A new caution on the use of Viagra and alcohol has been echoed after a 41-year-old man died after taking two tablets of the sex enhancer while drinking alcohol. The man, from Nagpur, India, was staying at a hotel with a female friend.

The pair were drinking together before he took two 50mg tablets of sildenafil, which is sold under the brand name Viagra. 

When he woke up the next morning, he felt “uneasiness”, according to the March edition of the Journal of Forensic and Legal Medicine. 
He was also vomiting, and his female friend urged him to seek medical help. However, he dismissed her concerns, telling her he had experienced the symptoms previously. 
But his condition got worse. 

The man was taken to hospital but was declared dead on arrival. He died of a cerebrovascular hemorrhage, which occurs when oxygen delivery to the brain is reduced. 

An autopsy ruled that the mixture of alcohol and the medication, as well as pre-existing high blood pressure, led to his death. His blood alcohol level was 0.186 – almost four times Australia’s legal driving limit of 0.05.  The deceased did not have a prescription for the Viagra and it is not known if he had been taking it with alcohol in the past.
