Answer to Question 1

3. I can take only one pill in a 24-hour period..

Rationale:
Taking only one pill in a 24-hour period is the recommended dosing for sildenafil (Viagra). Grapefruit juice can lead to increased, not decreased, levels of sildenafil (Viagra). Sildenafil (Viagra) should be taken on an empty stomach, not with food. The optimum time for administration is one hour before sex, but it can be taken up to 4 hours before sex.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 1
