3 DOSAGE FORMS AND STRENGTHS

• Inform patients that sildenafil is also marketed as VIAGRA for erectile dysfunction. Advise patients taking sildenafil tablets not to take VIAGRA or other PDE-5 inhibitors. • Advise patients to seek immediate medical attention for a sudden loss of vision in one or both eyes while taking sildenafil tablets. • Advise patients to seek prompt medical attention in the event of sudden decrease or loss of hearing while taking sildenafil tablets.

• Sildenafil film tablets typically start working within 30-60 minutes.
• The recommended dose varies, often 50mg before sexual activity.
• Do not take more than one tablet per 24 hours.
