Fildena 25 mg is a PDE5 inhibitor medication used to treat Erectile Dysfunction (ED) in males. The medicine works by inhibiting PDE-5 enzymes that diminish blood flow to erectile tissues in the male reproductive organ. This is accomplished through the induction of c-GMP. The nitric oxide that is produced inhibits the PDE-5 enzyme to increase blood flow into the erectile tissue.
The recommended dose of this medicine is 25 mg taken before sexual intercourse. The dosage can be increased to 50-mg if necessary. This should be done only if the patient does not experience success at lower doses.
For optimal results, it is best to take the pill on an empty stomach, ideally one hour before sexual intercourse. This is because eating will cause the medicine to work less effectively. Fatty meals will also affect how quickly the medication takes effect, so it's best to avoid them.
It's also important not to drink alcohol while taking Fildena 25, as this can make it less effective. If you must drink, limit yourself to one or two drinks.
If you miss a dose of the medicine, you can still get a result if you take the same amount as soon as you remember it. However, you should not double the dosage the next time it is due. This is because if you do, you'll have a prolonged painful erection that can lead to other side effects.
