Fildena double 200 is one of the brands that manufacture Sildenafil Citrate tablets, which are primarily used to treat erectile dysfunction in men. The number after the brand name typically indicates the dosage of Sildenafil Citrate in milligrams in each tablet. So, "Fildena 200" would mean that each tablet contains 200 mg of Sildenafil Citrate. The most common indication for sildenafil prescription is erectile dysfunction (ED). It can also be used in the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Sildenafil works by inhibiting an enzyme called phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5). This action promotes relaxation of smooth muscle and dilation of blood vessels in certain parts of the body, particularly in the penis, leading to an erection in response to physcial stimulation.
Sildenafil can interact with several other medications, especially nitrates (used for chest pain) and some blood pressure medications. Combining these can lead to a dangerous drop in blood pressure. It's crucial to inform the healthcare provider of all medications and supplements you're taking.
