  • Erectile dysfunction
View approved original text

This medication is used for the treatment of erectile dysfunction. Erectile dysfunction refers to a condition where men experience problems with sexual function, making it difficult to achieve an erection. This medication enhances the duration and strength of erections by improving blood circulation. It serves as a safe and effective treatment option for many individuals.

How to take

Adult dose

The recommended dosage is 25-50 mg taken once a day, about 1 hour before sexual activity. Depending on circumstances, it may also be taken 4 hours to 30 minutes before sexual activity. This medication should be placed on the tongue immediately after being removed from its individual packaging to dissolve without water.

Precautions

This medication can cause dangerously low blood pressure when taken with nitrate medications that lower blood pressure, so it is critical to confirm whether nitrate medications are being used before taking this medication. Patients with cardiovascular disease should be thoroughly examined for heart conditions before using this medication and should exercise caution, as it may exert stress on the heart. This medication can dilate blood vessels and temporarily lower blood pressure, which should be considered carefully, especially for patients with underlying cardiovascular conditions during sexual activity. Patients who have had serious heart rhythm disorders, heart failure, unstable angina in the past six months, hypotension, uncontrolled hypertension, or pigmentary retinopathy should not use this medication. If an erection lasts more than 4 hours or is accompanied by pain after taking this medication, immediate medical attention should be sought, as untreated cases can lead to penile tissue damage and permanent loss of erectile function. Concurrent use with other vasodilators or certain antiviral medications may significantly increase the plasma concentration of this medication, necessitating dose adjustment and caution. Formulations containing aspartame, an artificial sweetener, should not be administered to patients with certain genetic conditions such as phenylketonuria. This medication should not be used by children under 18 or women, and elderly patients or those with liver and kidney failure should start with a lower dose. Caution is advised when driving or operating machinery, as dizziness or visual disturbances may occur. This medication should not be used in conjunction with other erectile dysfunction treatments, and it does not provide protection against sexually transmitted infections, so safe sexual practices should be maintained. Overdose may intensify adverse reactions, so recommended doses should be adhered to, and any overdose should be treated immediately at a medical facility. This medication should be kept out of reach of children and should not be transferred to other containers.
