Fildena

Erectile dysfunction is a condition characterized by the inability to get or maintain an erection firm enough for sexual activity. Fildena helps address this issue by enhancing the natural physiological processes that occur during sexual arousal.

It is important to note that Fildena, like Viagra, is not an aphrodisiac and does not increase sexual desire. It is effective only when sexual stimulation occurs.

How to use

Here are some general guidelines for using Fildena:

1. Take Fildena as needed: Medicine is typically taken as needed, approximately 30 minutes to 1 hour before engaging in sexual activity. Do not take more than one dose of Fildena in a 24-hour period.
2. Take with water: Tablets should be swallowed whole with a glass of water. Do not crush, chew, or break the tablets.
3. Sexual stimulation is necessary: Fildena works by enhancing the natural response to sexual stimulation. It does not cause an automatic erection but helps in achieving and maintaining an erection when sexual stimulation occurs.
4. Avoid alcohol and certain medications: Fildena may interact with certain medications, especially those containing nitrates or alpha-blockers.

Dosage

Here are some general guidelines for Fildena dosages:

1. Initial recommended dose: The typical starting dose of Fildena is 50 milligrams (mg). This dosage is often effective for many men with erectile dysfunction. It is usually taken approximately 30 minutes to 1 hour before sexual activity.
2. Adjustments in dosage: The dosage can be increased to 100 mg or decreased to 25 mg, based on individual response and tolerability.
3. Maximum recommended dose: The maximum recommended dose of Fildena is 100 mg per day. Do not exceed this dosage in a 24-hour period.
4. Age considerations: Older adults, especially those above the age of 65, may be more sensitive to the effects of Fildena. In such cases, a lower dosage may be recommended.

Side effects

Fildena may cause side effects in some individuals. Not everyone experiences these side effects, and the severity and frequency of side effects can vary. It is important to note that if you experience any severe or persistent side effects, you should seek medical attention. Here are some common side effects:

1. Headache: One of the most commonly reported side effects of Fildena is a headache. It may range from mild to moderate in intensity.
2. Flushing: Some individuals may experience flushing or redness of the face and neck after taking Fildena. This is caused by increased blood flow to the skin.
3. Indigestion or upset stomach: Medicine may cause gastrointestinal symptoms such as indigestion, upset stomach, or acid reflux.
4. Nasal congestion: It is possible to experience nasal congestion or a stuffy nose as a side effect of sildenafil citrate.
5. Dizziness or lightheadedness: Fildena may cause a temporary drop in blood pressure, leading to feelings of dizziness or lightheadedness.
6. Vision changes: In rare cases, Medicament can cause changes in vision, such as blurred vision, sensitivity to light, or a blue-green tinge in vision. If you experience any vision changes, seek medical attention immediately.
7. Back pain or muscle aches: Some individuals may experience back pain or muscle aches as a side effect of Fildena. These side effects are usually mild and go away on their own.

It is important to note that these are not all the possible side effects of Fildena. Some individuals may experience other side effects, while others may not experience any at all.

Additionally, it is important to seek immediate medical attention if you experience any signs of an allergic reaction, such as difficulty breathing, hives, or swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat.

Storage

Fildena should be stored properly to maintain its effectiveness and ensure safety. Here are some guidelines for storing:

1. Store at room temperature: Keep Fildena at a temperature between 20°C to 25°C (68°F to 77°F). Avoid storing it in excessively hot or cold environments.
2. Protect from moisture: Store tablets in its original packaging or container, tightly closed. Protect it from exposure to moisture, as excessive humidity can degrade the medication.
3. Keep out of reach of children and pets: Store drug in a secure location where children or pets cannot access it.
4. Avoid direct sunlight: Keep medicine away from direct sunlight and sources of intense heat. Exposure to light and heat can affect the stability of the medication.
5. Do not use expired medication: Check the expiration date on the packaging and do not use Fildena if it has expired. Expired medication may not be effective and could potentially be harmful.
6. Proper disposal: If you have any unused or expired Fildena, do not dispose of it in regular household waste or flush it down the toilet. Follow local regulations and guidelines for the proper disposal of medication. You can consult your pharmacist or local waste disposal authorities for guidance on how to safely dispose of medications.

Overdose

An overdose of sildenafil citrate can potentially lead to serious complications and requires immediate medical attention. If you suspect an overdose or have taken more than the prescribed dose of Fildena, it is important to seek immediate medical help or contact your local poison control center. Here's some information regarding overdose:

1. Signs of overdose: Taking more than the recommended dose of Fildena can increase the risk of experiencing severe side effects. Symptoms of an overdose may include severe dizziness, fainting, priapism (painful or prolonged erection lasting more than 4 hours), chest pain, irregular heartbeat, or difficulty breathing.
2. Seek emergency medical assistance: If you or someone else has taken an excessive amount of Fildena, call emergency services or go to the nearest emergency room immediately.
3. Provide information: When seeking medical help, provide accurate information about the medication taken, the strength (dose), and the amount ingested.
4. Medical intervention: Treatment may involve supportive care to manage symptoms, close monitoring of vital signs, and interventions to address any complications.
5. Do not delay seeking help: Time is of the essence when dealing with a potential overdose. Do not hesitate to seek medical assistance, as prompt treatment can make a significant difference in the outcome.

Missed Doses

Medicine is typically taken as needed, shortly before sexual activity. Therefore, there is no specific "missed dose" concern with Fildena like there might be with daily medications. You should only take tablet when you intend to engage in sexual activity.

It is important to note that Fildena should not be taken more than once in a 24-hour period. If you miss the opportunity to take tablet before sexual activity, simply wait until the next time you plan to engage in sexual activity to take it. Do not take an extra dose or increase the dosage to make up for a missed dose.
