Vigara (Sildenafil Citrate) is a medication commonly used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) in men. It works by increasing blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation, helping to achieve and maintain an erection.
The recommended starting dose is 50 mg, taken approximately one hour before sexual activity. Depending on efficacy and tolerability, the dose may be adjusted to 100 mg or decreased to 25 mg. It should not be taken more than once a day.
Common side effects may include:
Serious side effects are rare but can include sudden vision loss, hearing loss, or an erection lasting longer than 4 hours. Seek medical attention if these occur.
Vigara is not suitable for individuals who are taking nitrates or have certain health conditions. Consult your healthcare provider before use.
Consuming alcohol may increase the likelihood of side effects. It is advisable to limit alcohol intake when using this medication.
The effects of Vigara can last between 4 to 6 hours, but this can vary based on individual factors.
Vigara is taken as needed, so there is no routine dosing schedule to follow. If you miss a dose, simply take it before your next planned sexual activity.
