Description
Same active ingredient (sildenafil) as Viagra®, the US brand. Zenegra 50 mg is an Indian brand, made and licensed in India.
About Zenegra 50 mg
Zenegra 50 mg is a sildenafil citrate tablet from Alkem Laboratories, a well-known Indian pharmaceutical company. Supplied in strips of four, it provides the standard 50 mg starting dose of sildenafil for erectile dysfunction, a strength that balances effectiveness with a lower chance of side effects.
What Zenegra does
Zenegra helps you get and keep an erection when you are sexually aroused. Sildenafil works by inhibiting PDE5, an enzyme that normally ends an erection, so that the blood vessels in the penis stay relaxed and full for longer. It does not cause spontaneous erections or increase desire.
Taking Zenegra 50 mg
- Take one tablet about 60 minutes before sexual activity, swallowed with water.
- The effect generally lasts four to six hours.
- A heavy meal can delay it; eat lightly beforehand.
- Take a maximum of one dose each day.
Depending on the response, your doctor may change the dose. Men needing the higher strength can compare Aurogra 100 mg or Silagra 100 mg.
Pack sizes
Zenegra 50 mg is sold in packs of 60, 120, 180 and 240 tablets, from $49 for 60 tablets.
Side effects
- Headache and facial flushing
- Indigestion or heartburn
- Blocked nose and dizziness
- Temporary blue-tinged or blurred vision
Stop taking it and call for urgent help if an erection lasts more than four hours, or if you have chest pain, fainting, or sudden sight or hearing loss.
Safety first
Zenegra must not be taken with nitrates (including GTN spray), poppers or riociguat. People with significant heart or blood vessel disease, very low blood pressure, severe liver problems, or who have had a stroke or heart attack in the last six months should not use it without specialist advice. Some medicines, including alpha-blockers, ritonavir, ketoconazole and erythromycin, interact with sildenafil.
Getting the best results
Give Zenegra a fair trial over several occasions, and pay attention to timing and meals. If erections remain difficult, a doctor can look for underlying causes such as diabetes, high blood pressure or low testosterone.
Storage
Keep in its strip at room temperature, away from moisture and children.
