Viagra Sublingual is an advanced pharmaceutical formulation designed for the effective management of erectile dysfunction (ED). Unlike conventional oral tablets, this sublingual preparation is administered under the tongue, allowing for rapid dissolution and direct absorption into the bloodstream. This mechanism facilitates a quicker onset of action, typically within 10–15 minutes, making it a preferred option for individuals seeking spontaneity and reliability. Containing sildenafil citrate as its active ingredient, it works by enhancing blood flow to the penile tissues, supporting firm and sustained erections when sexually stimulated. It is intended for use under appropriate medical guidance and is not indicated for recreational purposes.

Common use

Viagra Sublingual is primarily prescribed for the treatment of erectile dysfunction in adult males. It is suitable for individuals who may experience delayed absorption or gastrointestinal discomfort with standard oral tablets. It is also considered for patients desiring a more rapid therapeutic effect. Use is contingent upon sexual stimulation; it does not induce an erection spontaneously.

Dosage and direction

The recommended starting dose is typically 50 mg, taken as needed approximately 15–30 minutes prior to anticipated sexual activity. Based on efficacy and tolerability, the dose may be adjusted to 25 mg or increased to 100 mg. Maximum dosing should not exceed once per day. Place the tablet under the tongue and allow it to dissolve completely; do not crush, chew, or swallow whole. Avoid eating or drinking for 5 minutes after administration to ensure optimal absorption.

Precautions

• Not for use by women, children, or adolescents.
• Use with caution in patients with cardiovascular disease, including those with a history of myocardial infarction, stroke, or life-threatening arrhythmias within the last 6 months.
• Avoid use in individuals with severe hepatic or renal impairment unless advised by a healthcare provider.
• May cause hypotension; caution advised in patients taking antihypertensives.
• Sexual activity may pose a risk in patients with preexisting cardiovascular conditions.
• Inform your physician of any history of bleeding disorders, retinal conditions, or anatomical penile deformities.

Contraindications

• Concomitant use with organic nitrates or nitric oxide donors (e.g., nitroglycerin, isosorbide mononitrate) in any form.
• Hypersensitivity to sildenafil citrate or any excipients in the formulation.
• Patients with severe cardiovascular instability, hypotension (BP < 90/50 mmHg), or recent history of stroke or heart attack.
• Use in combination with guanylate cyclase stimulators such as riociguat.

Possible side effect

Common side effects may include headache, flushing, dyspepsia, nasal congestion, dizziness, and visual disturbances (e.g., changes in color perception, blurred vision). Less frequently reported effects include hypotension, palpitations, priapism (prolonged and painful erection requiring immediate medical attention), hearing loss, and non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION). Most side effects are mild to moderate and transient.

Drug interaction

Sildenafil is primarily metabolized by CYP3A4 and CYP2C9 enzymes. Concomitant use with CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., ketoconazole, ritonavir, erythromycin) may increase sildenafil concentrations. Avoid use with alpha-blockers due to additive hypotensive effects. Concurrent administration with other erectile dysfunction treatments is not recommended. Use caution with antihypertensives and moderate-to-strong CYP3A4 inducers (e.g., rifampin).

Missed dose

Viagra Sublingual is used on an as-needed basis; there is no daily dosing schedule. A missed dose is not applicable. Do not take extra tablets to make up for a missed occasion.

Overdose

In case of suspected overdose, symptoms may include severe hypotension, syncope, prolonged erection, and visual disturbances. Seek immediate medical attention. Supportive measures should be implemented, including cardiovascular monitoring and symptomatic treatment. Dialysis is not likely to be effective due to high protein binding.

Storage

Store at room temperature (15–30°C or 59–86°F) in a dry place, protected from light and moisture. Keep in the original packaging to maintain stability. Keep out of reach of children and pets. Do not use after the expiration date printed on the packaging.
