Description
Ergos (sildenafil) Tablets 50 mg
Composition
Each tablet contains 50 mg of sildenafil citrate.
Mechanism of Action
Sildenafil is a potent inhibitor of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP)-specific phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5). By inhibiting PDE5, sildenafil enhances the effects of nitric oxide released in response to sexual stimulation. This leads to smooth muscle relaxation in the corpus cavernosum of the penis, increasing blood flow and resulting in an erection.
Pharmacological Properties
Sildenafil citrate, the active ingredient in Ergos tablets, selectively inhibits PDE5. This action potentiates the vasodilatory effect of nitric oxide in the corpus cavernosum, leading to improved erectile function.
Indications for Use
Ergos tablets are indicated for the treatment of erectile dysfunction in men.
Contraindications
Avoid taking Ergos tablets if you are concurrently using nitrate drugs for chest pain or heart problems. Combining sildenafil with nitrates can lead to a sudden and severe drop in blood pressure.
Side Effects
Common side effects of Ergos tablets may include headache, flushing, indigestion, and nasal congestion.
Usage Instructions
The recommended dosage is one tablet taken 30 minutes to 1 hour before engaging in sexual activity. Swallow the tablet whole with a full glass of water. It is advisable to avoid consuming high-fat meals before taking the medication.
