Vidalista Ct Chewable

Uses

Vidalista Ct Chewable is used for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED).

Vidalista Ct Chewable is used for the treatment of the signs and symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

Vidalista Ct Chewable is used for the treatment of erectile dysfunction and the signs of benign prostatic hyperplasia (ED/BPH).

Vidalista Ct Chewable is also used to associated treatment for these conditions: Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), Erectile Dysfunction, Symptomatic pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH)

How Vidalista Ct Chewable works

Penile erection during sexual stimulation is achieved by the relaxation of penile arteries and corpus cavernosal smooth muscles, leading to increased blood flow to the organ. This response is mediated by the release of nitric oxide (NO) from nerve terminals and endothelial cells, which stimulates the synthesis of cGMP in smooth muscle cells. Cyclic GMP causes smooth muscle relaxation and increased blood flow into the corpus cavernosum, and is degraded by the cGMP specific phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) in the corpus cavernosum located around the penis. Vidalista Ct Chewable inhibits PDE5 and thereby enhances erectile function by increasing the amount of cGMP available.

Dosage

Vidalista Ct Chewable dosage

Erectile Dysfunction-

For Use as Needed:

• The recommended starting dose of Vidalista Ct Chewable for use as needed in most patients is 10 mg, taken prior to anticipated sexual activity.
• The dose may be increased to 20 mg or decreased to 5 mg, based on individual efficacy and tolerability. The maximum recommended dosing frequency is once per day in most patients.

For Once Daily Use:

• The recommended starting dose of Vidalista Ct Chewable for once daily use is 2.5 mg, taken at approximately the same time every day, without regard to timing of sexual activity.
• The Vidalista Ct Chewable dose for once daily use may be increased to 5 mg, based on individual efficacy and tolerability.

Patients with BPH or with ED and BPH-

• Intimate for once daily use for BPH: The recommended dose of Intimate for once daily use is 5 mg, taken at approximately the same time every day.
• Intimate for once daily use for ED+BPH: The recommended dose of Intimate for once daily use is 5 mg, taken at approximately the same time every day, without regard to timing of sexual activity.

Vidalista Ct Chewable may be taken without regard to food.

Side Effects

Body as a whole: hypersensitivity reactions including rash, urticaria, facial edema, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, and exfoliative dermatitis.

Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular: Serious cardiovascular events, including myocardial infarction, sudden cardiac death, unstable angina pectoris, ventricular arrhythmia, stroke, transient ischemic attacks, chest pain, palpitations, and tachycardia, may occur. Most of the patients in whom these events have been reported had pre-existing cardiovascular risk factors. Hypotension (more commonly reported when tadalafil is given to patients who are already taking antihypertensive agents), hypertension, and syncope.

Skin and subcutaneous tissues: hyperhidrosis (sweating).

Gastrointestinal: abdominal pain and gastroesophageal reflux.

Nervous system: migraine, transient global amnesia.Respiratory system: epistaxis (nose bleed).

Special senses: blurred vision, nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy, retinal vein occlusion, visual field defect.

Otologic: cases of sudden decrease or loss of hearing have been reported.

Toxicity

Oral, Rat LD₅₀ = 2000 mg/kg, no deaths or toxicity.

Precaution

Cardiovascular: Physicians should consider the cardiovascular status of their patients, since there is a degree of cardiac risk associated with sexual activity. Potential for Drug Interactions When Taking Vidalista Ct Chewable for Once Daily Use Physicians should be aware that Vidalista Ct Chewable for once daily use provides continuous plasma Vidalista Ct Chewable levels and should consider this when evaluating the potential for interactions with medications (e.g., nitrates, alpha-blockers, anti-hypertensives and potent inhibitors of CYP3A4).

Prolonged Erection: There have been rare reports of prolonged erections greater than 4 hours and priapism (painful erections greater than 6 hours in duration) for this class of compounds. Priapism, if not treated promptly, can result in irreversible damage to the erectile tissue. Patients who have an erection lasting greater than 4 hours, whether painful or not, should seek emergency medical attention. Vidalista Ct Chewable should be used with caution in patients who have conditions that might predispose them to priapism (such as sickle cell anemia, multiple myeloma, or leukemia), or in patients with anatomical deformation of the penis (such as angulation, cavernosal fibrosis, or Peyronie’s disease).

Eye & Sudden Hearing Loss: Physicians should advise patients to stop use of all PDE5 inhibitors, including Vidalista Ct Chewable, and seek medical attention in the event of a sudden loss of vision in one or both eyes & sudden decrease or loss of hearing.

Alpha blockers and Antihypertensives: Physicians should discuss with patients the potential for Vidalista Ct Chewable to augment the blood-pressure-lowering effect of alpha blockers and antihypertensive medications. Caution is advised when PDE5 inhibitors are coadministered with alpha blockers Renal Insufficiency, Hepatic Impairment, Consumption of alcohol.

Food Interaction

• Avoid excessive or chronic alcohol consumption. Ingesting excess amounts of alcohol (more than four drinks in a short time) may potentiate the hypotension and dizziness caused by tadalafil.
• Avoid grapefruit products. Vidalista Ct Chewable is metabolized by CYP3A4, and grapefruit products are CYP3A4 inhibitors; therefore, coadministration may increase serum levels of tadalafil and result in increased hypotension.
• Take with or without food.

[Moderate] GENERALLY AVOID: Additive hypotensive effects may occur when phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5) inhibitors such as tadalafil are used with alcohol, as both are mild systemic vasodilators.

In clinical pharmacology studies, more subjects administered alcohol at a dose of 0.7 g

There were reports of postural dizziness, and orthostatic hypotension was observed in some.

When tadalafil 20 mg was administered with alcohol at a lower dose of 0.6 g

Neither tadalafil nor alcohol affected the plasma concentrations of the other.

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with grapefruit juice is likely to increase the plasma concentrations of tadalafil, which is primarily metabolized by CYP450 3A4.

However, the interaction has not been studied.

The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruit.

MANAGEMENT: Patients taking tadalafil should avoid consuming large amounts of alcohol, which may increase the potential for orthostatic signs and symptoms including increase in heart rate, decrease in standing blood pressure, dizziness, and headache.

It may also be appropriate to avoid consuming large amounts of grapefruit juice.
