How does Sildenafil work in your body?

Sildenafil is an active ingredient that belongs to the PDE-5 hormone and inhibits a group of drugs. When activated, the pill increases blood flow to the penile tissue, so the penile tissue inside is filled with blood.

Once this happens, the penile tissue becomes more sensitive, which means that the penis becomes hard when stimulated and manually stimulated. This effect of generic Sildenafil has a certain duration of action.

Finally, you know that the pills of generic Sildenafil have a certain duration of action. This depends on the Sildenafil dosage.

Remember that in general, the higher the dose, the longer the duration of action and vice versa.

 

What Sildenafil dosage has the power to remain active for the longest time?

In general, as we have already mentioned, you have the option of choosing from several Sildenafil doses. Generally, all Sildenafil brands in the market have fixed dosages. By this, we mean that all brands have fixed dosages in which you can buy them in the market, whether you choose an FDA approved dosage like Viagra or a generic dosage like Fildena.

 

So, let's first find out about the dosages of Sildenafil.

You can see that if you look at the available dosages for Sildenafil, they all start with a small dose of 25 mg. The higher dosages include Sildenafil 50 mg, Sildenafil 100 mg, Sildenafil 120 mg, Sildenafil 150 mg, and Sildenafil 200 mg. Now that you know the dosages of Sildenafil, let's find out how long they last and produce effects.

While experimenting with the dosages, scientists and researchers have found that dosages up to 50 mg can remain active for up to 4 hours. At slightly higher doses, you will find that the effects of 100mg to 120mg last for about 5 hours, and at higher doses of 150mg and 200mg of Sildenafil, the effects last for 6 hours.

Overall, Sildenafil has a maximum duration of action of about 6 hours. So, you can expect the maximum duration of action of a Sildenafil dose to be 6 hours.

Doctors recommend that the full potential of increased blood flow to the penis is achieved during this time. This results in erection stiffness just by stimulating the penis. The action of nitric oxide triggers the vasodilating effect that gives you an erection at all times.

 

How long is the minimum duration of action of Sildenafil?

The minimum duration of action of Sildenafil to work and induce erection hardness is about 4 hours. And this duration of action generally applies to all the smaller doses, so Sildenafil 25 mg and Sildenafil 50 mg.

 

Why can't you use Sildenafil forever to treat erectile dysfunction?

Sildenafil is not a pill that you can take for the rest of your life to get an erection. There is a maximum amount of time you can take any dose or brand of Sildenafil at a time.

When you see a doctor, the timeline for your treatment will depend on a few factors. And these are the long-term effects of taking the drug that the doctor will have a general eye on. You see, throughout the treatment period, you will stay in contact with a doctor and will need to make a few visits every few weeks or months.

The other determining factor is how well your body can adapt to and tolerate the doses of the pill. In general, the better your child copes with the effects of the drug, the better off you are to avoid side effects.

Another point that doctors will examine closely is the severity of your erectile dysfunction. The more severe it is, the longer it will undoubtedly take for even the slightest changes to occur. We ask all patients to maintain taking the medication and only use medications that are recommended only by the doctor. Avoid changing the dose without consulting.

Also, try not to take contraindicated medications or other common substances such as alcohol, narcotics such as cocaine and marijuana, and grape juice.

 

What side effects can occur when Sildenafil is working?

Sometimes side effects can occur after the effects of Sildenafil wear off in your body. The side effects can range from mild to extremely severe and cause a lot of discomfort.

Mild side effects of Sildenafil include headache, dizziness, diarrhea, vomiting, nausea, stomach pain and gastrointestinal problems.

More severe side effects include priapism, lower libido, chest pain, blurred vision, changes in hearing, irregular and rapid heartbeat and pain during erections.

Remember that it does not matter if the side effects are mild or severe, but the important thing is to inform the doctor immediately. However, we can say that the side effects, if any, will become weaker and weaker as your body adjusts to the dose in the first few doses.

 

What precautions do you need to take when Sildenafil is working?

Sometimes certain things need to be avoided, such as taking contraindicated medications or drinking alcohol and grape juice. We recommend that you consult your doctor if you are taking any medications you are currently taking.
