Yes, there can be specific side effects when using Vilitra 60 mg (which contains vardenafil) with grapefruit juice. Grapefruit juice inhibits the enzyme CYP3A4 in the intestines, which can lead to higher levels of vardenafil in the bloodstream. This increased concentration can potentially enhance the side effects of vardenafil, such as:
Low blood pressure: Grapefruit juice can increase the risk of hypotension (low blood pressure), which may cause symptoms like dizziness, fainting, or light-headedness.
Headaches: Elevated levels of vardenafil can intensify the occurrence or severity of headaches.
Digestive issues: Side effects such as nausea, upset stomach, or diarrhea may be more pronounced.
Dizziness: Increased dizziness or fainting spells can occur due to the interaction between vardenafil and grapefruit juice.
To avoid these risks, it's generally recommended to avoid grapefruit juice (and possibly other citrus juices like Seville orange juice) while taking medications like Vilitra 60. It's important to consult with a healthcare provider for personalized advice and guidance regarding the use of vardenafil and potential interactions with other substances like grapefruit juice.
