Vestibular symptoms as a complication of sildenafil: a case report. Wiener klinische Wochenschrift, 2002, Jan-15, Volume: 114, Issue:1-2 Potential vasodilator side effects of sildenafil such as headache, flushing, dyspepsia, heartburn, nasal congestion, dizziness and visual changes have been frequently observed. We report a 79-year-old man who developed severe vestibular neuritis-like symptoms (horizontal nystagmus with rotatory components and vomiting) two hours after taking 50 mg sildenafil. Additionally, the patient complained of tinnitus in both ears. Internal and neurological examination revealed no pathological findings and the patient had no history of cardiovascular disease. The symptoms lasted for 24 hours and then resolved completely. All of the patient's complaints indicated a drug-related phenomenon. This drug related adverse reaction should be included in the long list of potential side effects of sildenafil.
