Common Use
The main component of Penegra is Sildenafil, which enhances the response to sexual stimulation by relaxing smooth muscles via nitric oxide. This increases blood flow to the penis, leading to an erection. Sildenafil is used to treat erectile dysfunction and pulmonary arterial hypertension, and may have other uses.
Dosage and Direction
Take Penegra orally with water about 0.5-1 hour before sexual activity. Do not exceed one dose per day. High-fat meals may delay its effects. Avoid grapefruit and grapefruit juice during treatment.
Precautions
Before taking Sildenafil, inform your doctor if you have any allergies. Elderly patients may experience increased sensitivity to side effects.
Contraindications
Penegra is contraindicated for patients taking other impotence medications or nitrate drugs for chest pain. It is not for women or children and should be avoided by those with known hypersensitivity to its components.
Possible Side Effects
Common side effects include headache, flushing, heartburn, and dizziness. Serious allergic reactions are rare but require immediate medical attention. Contact your doctor if you notice any unlisted side effects.
Drug Interactions
Avoid using Sildenafil with nitrates, recreational drugs known as "poppers," alpha-blockers, and certain blood pressure medications. Consult your doctor for details.
Missed Dose
Penegra is taken as needed, so a missed dose is unlikely.
Overdose
If you suspect an overdose, seek emergency medical attention. Symptoms include chest pain, nausea, and irregular heartbeat.
Storage
Store Penegra at room temperature (68-77°F or 20-25°C) away from light and moisture. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
