Sildenafil Citrate (Viagros 100) - Driada Medical EU

The provided text describes a product containing Sildenafil Citrate, commonly known by the brand name Viagra. There is a clear inconsistency in the concentration data: the label implies a 100 mg tablet (Viagros 100 and the 100 mg/tab pack detail), but the active substance is listed as 20 mg/tab.

Assuming the product is the standard high dose of 100 mg per tablet, the summary below is based on the properties of Sildenafil Citrate.

Mechanism and Primary Uses 

Sildenafil is a Phosphodiesterase Type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor.¹ It is used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).²

• Mechanism: Sildenafil increases the effect of nitric oxide (NO) by inhibiting the PDE5 enzyme, which causes smooth muscle relaxation and increases blood flow to the penis, aiding in achieving an erection upon sexual stimulation.³

• Duration: Its effects are shorter-lived than Tadalafil (Cialis), typically lasting around 4–6 hours.

• Bodybuilding Context: Like other PDE5 inhibitors, Sildenafil is sometimes used by athletes pre-workout to enhance the muscle pump and vascularity by increasing NO production and blood flow to working muscles.

Usage and Dosage Guidelines (General) 

• ED Use (As Needed): A typical dose ranges from 50 mg to 100 mg, taken approximately one hour before sexual activity. The 100 mg concentration is the maximum recommended single dose.⁴

• Frequency: Maximum one dose per day.

• Timing: Best taken on an empty stomach for fastest onset of action.⁵

Side Effects and Contraindications 

• Common Side Effects: Headache, flushing (redness of the face and neck), indigestion, dizziness, and mild visual disturbances (e.g., temporary blue tinge to vision).⁶

• Serious Side Effects: Rare but serious risks include sudden vision loss, hearing loss, or priapism (an erection lasting more than four hours).

• Contraindications (Crucial): Must NEVER be taken with any form of nitrate medication (e.g., nitroglycerin for chest pain) due to the risk of a severe, life-threatening drop in blood pressure.⁷

 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. What is the primary medical difference between Sildenafil and Tadalafil (Cialis)?

Sildenafil has a much shorter active duration, lasting about 4–6 hours, whereas Tadalafil lasts up to 36 hours.⁸

2. Why is Sildenafil often taken on an empty stomach?

Sildenafil is typically taken on an empty stomach because consuming a high-fat meal close to administration can delay the onset of action and reduce its peak effectiveness.⁹

3. What serious medication interaction must be avoided with Sildenafil?

Sildenafil must never be taken with any type of nitrate medication (like those used to treat chest pain/angina), as this combination can lead to a sudden and dangerous drop in blood pressure.¹⁰

4. What is the maximum recommended single dose of Sildenafil for treating ED?

The maximum recommended single dose of Sildenafil is 100 mg.
