Description
Same active ingredient (sildenafil) as Viagra®, the US brand. Silditop 50 mg is an Indian brand, made and licensed in India.
About Silditop 50 mg
Silditop 50 mg contains 50 mg of sildenafil citrate and is made by Healing Pharma. 50 mg is the usual starting dose of sildenafil for erectile dysfunction, which makes Silditop 50 a natural first choice for men trying the medicine for the first time. It is also suitable for anyone who found 100 mg too strong.
Why start at 50 mg?
Many men get a good response at 50 mg with fewer side effects than the higher strength. Starting here lets you and your doctor judge how well sildenafil works for you before deciding whether to adjust the dose up to 100 mg or down to 25 mg.
How to take Silditop 50 mg
- One tablet with a glass of water, around an hour before sex.
- It usually takes effect in 30–60 minutes and helps for about four to six hours.
- Take it on an empty stomach or after something light for the quickest effect.
- Only one dose should be taken in 24 hours.
If you need a stronger effect after several tries, your doctor may suggest Silditop 100 mg, the maximum labeled dose.
How sildenafil works
By blocking the PDE5 enzyme, sildenafil keeps the blood vessels in the penis relaxed for longer when you are aroused, so blood can flow in and an erection can be maintained. It has no effect without sexual stimulation.
Pack sizes
Silditop 50 mg is supplied in strips of 10 and sold in packs of 90, 120, 150 and 300 tablets, from $71.
Side effects
Possible effects include headache, flushing, indigestion, nasal congestion, dizziness and mild changes in color vision. These are generally short-lived. Get medical help at once for a prolonged erection, chest pain, or sudden hearing or vision loss.
Who should not take it
Men who use nitrates or poppers, or take riociguat, must not use sildenafil. Men with serious heart disease, uncontrolled blood pressure or a recent stroke need a medical review first. Tell your doctor about alpha-blockers and any liver or kidney problems.
Storage
Store below 86°F (30°C) in the original strip and keep out of children’s reach.
