Seldishil 25mg Disintegrating Strip

Introduction

Seldishil is a medication that contains the active ingredient Sildenafil. It is commonly prescribed to treat erectile dysfunction, a condition characterized by the inability to achieve or maintain an erection sufficient for sexual activity.

Uses

Seldishil is primarily used to improve the sexual function in adult men with erectile dysfunction. It works by increasing blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation, which helps to achieve and maintain an erection.

Dosage and Administration

The recommended dosage of Seldishil is typically 50 milligrams (mg), taken as needed, approximately 30 minutes to 4 hours before sexual activity. The disintegrating strip should be placed on the tongue, where it will rapidly dissolve without the need for water. The medication should not be taken more than once a day. Follow the instructions provided by your healthcare provider regarding the dosage and administration of this medication.

Mechanism of Action

Sildenafil, the active ingredient in Seldishil, belongs to a class of medications called phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors. It works by inhibiting the enzyme PDE5, which is responsible for the breakdown of a chemical called cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) in the penis. By inhibiting PDE5, Sildenafil promotes the accumulation of cGMP, leading to enhanced blood flow to the penis and improved erectile function.

Side Effects

Common side effects may include headache, flushing, indigestion, nasal congestion, and dizziness. These side effects are usually mild and temporary, but if they persist or worsen, consult your healthcare provider.

Serious side effects are rare, but they can occur. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience any signs of an allergic reaction, such as rash, itching, swelling, severe dizziness, or difficulty breathing. Additionally, if you experience a prolonged or painful erection lasting longer than 4 hours, known as priapism, seek medical help, as this condition can be serious.

Drug Interactions

inform your healthcare provider about all the medications you are taking, including prescription drugs, over-the-counter medications, and herbal supplements, as they may interact with Seldishil. Common drug interactions may occur with nitrates, alpha-blockers, certain antifungal medications, certain antibiotics, and HIV protease inhibitors. These interactions can increase the risk of side effects or affect the effectiveness of the medication. Your healthcare provider can provide specific guidance on potential drug interactions.

Precautions

Before using Seldishil, inform your healthcare provider about any medical conditions you have or medications you are taking. This medication may not be suitable for individuals with certain cardiovascular conditions, liver or kidney problems, or those taking medications that interact with Sildenafil. Avoid consuming grapefruit or grapefruit juice while using this medication, as it may increase the blood levels of Sildenafil.

Storage

Seldishil should be stored at room temperature, away from moisture and heat. Keep the medication out of reach of children and pets. Do not use the medication if it is past the expiration date.
