Always follow your doctor's prescribed dosage and schedule; it can be taken with or without food, but consistently at the same time each day. Swallow the tablet whole. Discontinuing treatment prematurely may exacerbate symptoms; complete the prescribed course for optimal results. Common side effects include dizziness, backache, chest discomfort, impaired ejaculation, and retrograde ejaculation. Report persistent or bothersome side effects immediately.
