stop the drug immediately
Detailed Answer:
HiXXXXX
Thank you for choosing XXXXXXX
Being a hypertensive you need to be very vigilant in taking this drug. As you rightly said the dose is too high for your age and medical history.
As age advances the metabolism of viagra drug decreases, hence the drug acts for longer time and thus you are experiencing a prolonged erection. You need to STOP the drug immediately, as prolonged erection can damage your penile muscles and will affect your future sexual life, can even cause permanent loss of potency.
Kindly visit your doctor as early as possible.
For time being you can use ice packs, externally compressing your perinium.
After analyzing your doctor might suggest you some medicines like phenylephrine or terbutaline for further management.

What is happening which is not normal, according to what I have read about Viagra, is that the effect of the drug is lasting for several days, i.e. I am capable of getting an erection due to the drug when sexually aroused.
My BP is at 120/70 which is normal for me.
I am simply curious why the effectiveness of the drug is lasting for such a long period of time.
Normal physiological erection.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
If you are having erection only when you are aroused, then its a normal phenomenon. Its NOT DUE TO THE DRUG, because the viagra gets metabolised very fast. Your erection during sex is due to your normal hormone TESTOSTERONE levels, and it is not due to prolonged drug effect, this is a PHYSIOLOGICAL RESPONSE. You should be concerned if you have PROLONGED PAINFUL ERECTION, otherwise you can ignore the present complaint and be happy that you do not need frequent dose or increase in dose.
If you do not have any further clarification you can close the discussion. Kindly rate & review my answer. Wish you good health.
