Cenforce 130 mg (or other Cenforce/sildenafil products) because alcohol can increase side effects and reduce effectiveness of the medication. Why alcohol and Cenforce don’t mix well Blood pressure drop: Both sildenafil and alcohol lower blood pressure. When taken together, this can cause dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, or a dangerous drop in blood pressure. More side effects: Alcohol can make common side effects like flushing, headache, dizziness, or nausea worse. Reduced effectiveness: Alcohol itself can impair Cenforce 130 mg performance and may make it harder to get or maintain an erection — which counteracts what Cenforce is supposed to do. What’s usually safer in practice If you choose to drink, keep it very light — e.g., 1–2 standard drinks — and wait several hours before or after taking Cenforce. Excessive alcohol should be avoided entirely on the day you use the medication. For best results and safety, many doctors recommend avoiding alcohol on the day you plan to use Cenforce.  Always talk with your healthcare provider about your alcohol habits and any other medications you take before using erectile dysfunction treatments.
