Hi Anon

Thanks for your question and welcome!

This is a question that indicates a need to call your doctor. Depending on the kind of seizures, any other medical issues (including even over the counter meds) and the ingredients in both your seizure meds and those in Viagra, only your own doctor is qualified to help you with this question, in possible co-operation with your pharmacist.

Also, take a look at the drug interactions page on Viagara's own website: http://www.rxlist.com/viagra-drug.htm

However, make sure you put a call into your doctor before trying both. A good doctor and pharmacist should spot straight away if there are contraindications.

We wish you the best,
~Susan

Hi Abhi,

Unfortunately, to the best of our knowledge, no one over the internet can tell you exactly what medications you can or can not take. This is information that you can obtain only by your prescribing doctor(s) and/or a trusted Pharmacist who knows all of your medication history.
