Viagra Super Active

Viagra Super Active (sildenafil) is a popular generic of Viagra which belongs to the group of PDE-5 inhibitors.

Mechanism of action

The action of these capsules is based on stimulating the flow of blood to the cavernous bodies of the penis. This happens due to a decrease in the activity of type 5 phosphodiesterase. The enzyme is responsible for the breakdown of cyclic guanosine monophosphate, which is involved in the normal mechanism of erection. The suppression of PDE-5 by sildenafil and an increase in cGMP level stimulate the natural mechanism of erection against the background of sexual desire. Sildenafil is rapidly absorbed. Due to the capsule form of the drug, the effect is observed 40 minutes after taking the drug. Sometimes the effect is observed faster – after 30 minutes. The action lasts 4-5 hours, in some cases up to 7 hours.

Indications

The drug is used to treat erectile dysfunction of various etiologies.

Instructions for use

Viagra Super Active is taken orally. The daily dose of the drug is 1 capsule (100 mg). Take a capsule 40-60 minutes before sex, with water. Eating fatty foods is not recommended since the effect of the drug may occur later. The effect lasts up to 6 hours.

Side effects

In very rare cases, the drug causes the following side effects:

  • flushed face;
  • nausea, dizziness;
  • headache, diarrhea;
  • muscle pain
  • heart palpitations, etc.

As a rule, these symptoms go away quickly and painlessly. In you have any severe and lasting symptoms after taking the medication, consult your doctor.

Contraindications

Before using the drug, you need to make sure that you do not have any of the following diseases:

  • stomach ulcer;
  • severe anemia (including sickle cell);
  • severe diseases of the organs of vision and optic nerve;
  • heart failure;
  • acute renal and hepatic insufficiency;
  • acute allergic reactions that manifested earlier;

  • strokes in the last 6 months;

  • tachycardia and ischemic disease;
  • age under 18 years;
  • age over 85 years;
  • hypertension and hypotension.

In some cases, it is necessary to conduct additional tests in patients before prescribing the drug, at the discretion of the doctor.

Overdose

Overdose of the drug was studied in patients taking sildenafil 800 mg per day. Patients experienced reactions attributed to side effects (see above). Thus, an excess dose of Viagra Super Active increases the risk of unwanted effects. The main symptoms are a sensation of fever, severe headache, turbidity, nausea and vomiting. Treatment includes withdrawal of the drug and relieving symptoms. Dialysis does not give the desired effect since sildenafil is bound by blood plasma.

Drug interactions

Do not combine Viagra Super Active with the following drugs:

  • erythromycin (increased amount of sildenafil in the blood);
  • cimetidine, ketoconazole (increased amount of sildenafil in the blood);
  • antianginal drugs – nitrates (the hypotensive effect is enhanced);
  • hypoglycemic drugs;
  • beta-blockers (the effect of hypotension increases);
  • agents that reduce the acidity of gastric juice (sildenafil is absorbed longer).

When using other drugs, you should inform your doctor about this before taking Viagra Super Active. It is not recommended to combine this drug with alcohol because of the additional risk of adverse reactions. When consuming large doses of alcohol, the risk of adverse reactions of the body increases. It is not advisable to drive after taking the drug, as it can cause dizziness and a shift in color perception in the blue range.
