sildenafil Uses, Side Effects, Interactions, Warnings & Dosing
What dosages is sildenafil available in?
sildenafil is available as a 25 mg, 50 mg, and 100 mg oral tablet.
What is sildenafil used for?
sildenafil is a phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE-5) blocker that treats erectile dysfunction.
How does sildenafil work?
sildenafil is a phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE-5) inhibitor. PDE-5 is a protein in your body that breaks down the molecules that normally cause an erection. When it blocks PDE-5, sildenafil (sildenafil) helps an erection occur by allowing certain muscles in the penis to relax and the penis to fill with blood.
How do I take sildenafil?
The typical dose is to take 50 mg of sildenafil by mouth, about 1 hour before sex, as needed. The maximum recommended dose is 100 mg. Don’t take sildenafil more than once daily (at any dose).
Is it safe for me to take sildenafil?
sildenafil is a safe and effective treatment when used for FDA licensed indications. However, like all medications, they may give you unwanted side effects. You should always discuss potential side effects with your physician to ensure the medication is suitable and right for you. You should not use this medication if you are taking any organic nitrates.
