Silnafil Tablet
Description
Silnafil 25mg Tablet is a medicine used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) in men. It contains sildenafil as its active ingredient, which helps increase blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation. This improved blood circulation helps men achieve and maintain an erection suitable for sexual activity. It is important to note that Silnafil 25mg Tablet only works when there is sexual arousal and will not cause an automatic erection.
You should take Silnafil 25mg Tablet exactly as prescribed by your doctor. It can be taken with or without food, but taking it on an empty stomach may help it work faster. Avoid consuming large or fatty meals before taking the tablet, as this may delay its effect. The tablet should be swallowed whole with a glass of water about 30 to 60 minutes before planned sexual activity.
Do not take more than one dose of Silnafil 25mg Tablet in a day. Taking more than the recommended dose can increase the risk of side effects such as headache, dizziness, flushing, nasal congestion, or upset stomach. These side effects are usually mild and short-lived, but if they persist or worsen, you should contact your doctor.
Before starting Silnafil 25mg Tablet, tell your doctor about your full medical history, especially if you have heart disease, low blood pressure, liver or kidney problems, or are taking medicines containing nitrates for chest pain. These conditions may require special precautions or dose adjustments.
Silnafil 25mg Tablet is meant only for adult men and should not be used by women, children, or adolescents. Always follow your doctor’s instructions carefully to ensure safe and effective use of the medicine. Regular communication with your doctor can help manage your condition and minimize any potential risks.
