Frequently Asked Questions for Sildenafil Tablet (generic Viagra)

What It Is

Sildenafil is a prescription-only medication used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) in men. Available in various strengths, including 25mg, 50mg, and 100mg, Sildenafil helps men who struggle with ED to regain their ability to achieve a satisfying erection by enhancing blood flow to the penis.

How It Works

Sildenafil works by inhibiting the enzyme phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5), which breaks down a compound called cGMP. cGMP is essential for relaxation of the blood vessels in the penis, allowing them to expand and fill with blood, thus helping men achieve an erection. It only works when the user is sexually aroused, allowing for a natural sexual experience.

Directions for Use

Dosage: The standard recommended dose is 50mg, but this can be adjusted to 25mg or 100mg based on individual needs and effectiveness.
Administration: Take one tablet orally with water, about 30 to 60 minutes before sexual activity.
Frequency: Do not take more than one tablet in a 24-hour period.
Best Time to Take: It is most effective when taken on an empty stomach, as food can delay the onset of action.
Duration: Sildenafil’s effects last up to 4-5 hours, providing ample time for sexual activity.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Sildenafil include:

Headaches
Dizziness
Flushing
Stuffy nose
Indigestion

Rare side effects may include:

Vision changes
Chest pain or discomfort
Painful or prolonged erection (priapism)
