Viagra 120 mg tablet

How It Works

Viagra 120 mg is a popular PDE 5 inhibitor. It relaxes the smooth muscles present in the walls of the blood vessels and increases the blood flow to the penis. It contains the ingredient Sildenafil Citrate that does not let the enzyme PDE 5 destroy cGMP. cGMP is a molecule that is responsible for the contraction and dilation of blood vessels. A person facing difficulty in achieving an erection is due to the fact that PDE 5 does not let cGMP be produced properly. Viagra 120 mg blocks the action of PDE 5 and enables the production of cGMP. This allows more and more blood flow to the penis. As a result, an erection is achieved.

Uses

Viagra 120 mg is prescribed for the treatment of the following problems:

1. Erectile Dysfunction (ED) – a condition that causes an inability to achieve or sustain an erection making it difficult to have sexual intercourse.
2. Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) – high blood pressure that affects the arteries in the lungs and the heart.

Dosage

Viagra 120 mg is intended to be taken orally with water. A single tablet is recommended to be taken once in 24 hours. You should not consume more than one tablet in 24 hours. For best results, consume the pill on an empty stomach an hour before sexual intercourse. The effects of this medicine last for 4-5 hours.

Missed Dosage: This medicine is taken as and when needed. Therefore, the chances of missing a dose are very less. However, if this medicine is taken for the treatment of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH), the missed dose should be taken as soon as possible. If it’s time for the next scheduled dose, the missed dose should be skipped. In no case should a double dose be taken to make up for the missed dose.

Overdose: An overdose can lead to serious side-effects. If problems persist for long, contact your doctor immediately.
