Common Use
The main component of Silagra is Sildenafil, which enhances the response to sexual stimulation by relaxing smooth muscles and increasing blood flow to the penis, leading to an erection. It treats erectile dysfunction and pulmonary arterial hypertension, and may have other uses.
Dosage and Direction
Take by mouth with water about 0.5-1 hour before sexual activity. Do not exceed one dose per day. A high-fat meal may delay its effect, and avoid grapefruit products while on Sildenafil.
Precautions
Inform your doctor if you are allergic to Sildenafil or have other allergies. Older adults may be more sensitive to side effects.
Contraindications
Silagra should not be used with other impotence medications or nitrates for heart problems. It is not for women, children, or those with known hypersensitivity to any tablet components.
Possible Side Effects
Common side effects include headache, flushing, heartburn, upset stomach, nasal stuffiness, lightheadedness, dizziness, or diarrhea. Serious allergic reactions are rare; seek immediate medical attention if they occur. Report any unlisted side effects to your doctor.
Drug Interactions
Avoid using with nitrates, recreational drugs like "poppers," alpha-blockers, and certain blood pressure medications. Consult your doctor for more details.
Missed Dose
Silagra is used as needed; a dosing schedule is unlikely.
Overdose
If you suspect an overdose, seek emergency medical attention immediately. Symptoms may include chest pain, nausea, irregular heartbeat, or fainting.
Storage
Store at room temperature (68-77°F or 20-25°C) away from light and moisture. Do not store in the bathroom. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
