Fildena Professional 100 – Sildenafil Citrate 100mg

Fildena Professional 100 is a sildenafil-based product marketed for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED) in adult men. It contains sildenafil citrate equivalent to 100mg of sildenafil, a medicine belonging to the phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor class.

Sildenafil works by supporting increased blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation. This can help men who experience difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection suitable for sexual activity. Fildena Professional 100 does not increase sexual desire and does not produce an erection without sexual stimulation.

This product information explains the uses, mechanism of action, dosage considerations, precautions, possible side effects, interactions, and frequently asked questions related to Fildena Professional 100.

What Is Fildena Professional 100?

Fildena Professional 100 is marketed as a 100mg sildenafil product for men experiencing erectile dysfunction. Sildenafil is an established PDE5 inhibitor used in the management of ED.

Erectile dysfunction can have many possible causes, including cardiovascular conditions, diabetes, certain medications, hormonal factors, psychological factors, stress, and lifestyle-related factors. A healthcare professional can help identify possible causes and determine whether sildenafil is appropriate.

The word “Professional” is part of the product name and should not be interpreted as evidence of greater effectiveness or safety compared with other sildenafil products containing the same active ingredient and strength.

Fildena Professional 100 Uses

The primary use associated with sildenafil is the treatment of erectile dysfunction in adult men.

ED may involve:

• Difficulty getting an erection
• Difficulty maintaining an erection
• Erections that are not firm enough for sexual activity
• Recurrent problems with erectile function

Sildenafil addresses the blood-flow mechanism involved in erections. It does not treat every underlying cause of erectile dysfunction and does not increase libido.

If erectile difficulties are persistent, a healthcare professional can evaluate potential underlying conditions and discuss appropriate treatment options.

How Does Fildena Professional 100 Work?

Fildena Professional 100 contains sildenafil, which inhibits the PDE5 enzyme.

During sexual stimulation, nitric oxide signaling contributes to the production of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP). cGMP helps relax smooth muscle in penile tissue and allows blood to flow into the penis.

The PDE5 enzyme breaks down cGMP. Sildenafil inhibits PDE5, helping maintain cGMP activity and supporting increased blood flow during sexual stimulation.

Because sexual stimulation is necessary for this process, Fildena Professional 100 does not normally cause an erection on its own.

Fildena Professional 100 Dosage Information

Fildena Professional 100 contains 100mg of sildenafil. For FDA-approved sildenafil products used for erectile dysfunction, the usual starting dose is 50mg, adjusted according to effectiveness and tolerability. The maximum recommended dose is 100mg, with use limited to once in a 24-hour period.

A 100mg dose may be appropriate for some patients but is not necessarily suitable for everyone. A healthcare professional may recommend a lower dose depending on age, other medicines, cardiovascular health, kidney or liver function, and individual response.

Do not increase the sildenafil dose without professional medical advice.

How to Take Fildena Professional 100

If prescribed or recommended by a qualified healthcare professional, take sildenafil exactly as directed.

Sildenafil for ED is generally taken when needed before sexual activity. It may be taken with water. A high-fat meal can delay the absorption of sildenafil compared with taking it on an empty stomach.

Do not take more than one sildenafil dose within 24 hours unless your healthcare professional specifically instructs otherwise.

Avoid combining Fildena Professional 100 with other sildenafil-containing products or other PDE5 inhibitors unless specifically directed by a healthcare professional.

Fildena Professional 100 Side Effects

Sildenafil may cause side effects, although not everyone experiences them.

Commonly reported side effects include:

• Headache
• Flushing
• Indigestion
• Nasal congestion
• Dizziness
• Nausea
• Temporary changes in vision

The likelihood of side effects can vary depending on the individual, dose, other medicines, and underlying health conditions.

Seek urgent medical attention if you experience a prolonged erection lasting more than four hours, sudden vision loss, sudden hearing loss or significant hearing changes, severe allergic symptoms, or chest pain.

A prolonged erection requires prompt medical treatment because untreated priapism can result in permanent damage.

Fildena Professional 100 Precautions and Warnings

Before using sildenafil, provide your doctor or pharmacist with information about your medical history and all medicines you currently take.

Do not use sildenafil with nitrate medicines. Nitrates such as nitroglycerin are used for certain heart conditions. Combining nitrates with sildenafil can cause a potentially dangerous decrease in blood pressure.

Sildenafil is also contraindicated with guanylate cyclase stimulators such as riociguat.

Tell your healthcare professional if you have:

• Heart or cardiovascular disease
• Low blood pressure
• Uncontrolled high blood pressure
• A history of stroke or heart attack
• Liver or kidney problems
• Certain eye or vision conditions
• A history of prolonged erections
• Penile anatomical abnormalities
• Allergies to sildenafil or similar medicines

People who have been advised to avoid sexual activity because of cardiovascular risk should receive medical advice before using ED medicines.

Fildena Professional 100 and Alcohol

Alcohol can affect blood pressure and may contribute to dizziness. Excessive alcohol consumption can also make it more difficult to achieve or maintain an erection.

If you use Fildena Professional 100, avoid excessive alcohol intake and discuss alcohol consumption with your healthcare professional, particularly if you take medicines that affect blood pressure.

Fildena Professional 100 Drug Interactions

Sildenafil can interact with various prescription and non-prescription medicines.

Important interactions include:

• Nitrate medicines
• Riociguat
• Certain alpha-blockers
• Some blood-pressure medicines
• Certain CYP3A4 inhibitors
• Other PDE5 inhibitors
• Other sildenafil-containing products

Always tell your doctor or pharmacist about prescription medicines, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and supplements you use.

Do not combine Fildena Professional 100 with another ED medicine containing sildenafil or another PDE5 inhibitor unless a healthcare professional specifically recommends the combination.
