Generic Sildenafil Red Information

Introduction

Sildenafil Red is a phosphodiesterase‑5 (PDE‑5) inhibitor indicated for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED) and certain forms of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). The medication contains the active compound sildenafil and belongs to the men’s‑health therapeutic group. In Hong Kong, erectile dysfunction affects an estimated 20 % of men aged 40 years and older, creating a substantial need for safe and effective oral therapy. Sildenafil Red provides a clinically proven option that is widely used in local practice.

What is Sildenafil Red?

Sildenafil Red is an oral tablet formulation of sildenafil citrate. It is manufactured by a pharmaceutical company that supplies generic PDE‑5 inhibitors to the Asian market. The product is classified as a prescription‑only medication in Hong Kong, falling under the “Erectile Dysfunction, Men's Health” category. While the brand name differs, the tablet contains the same 50 mg or 100 mg dose of sildenafil as the original product marketed internationally under the name Viagra®.

How Sildenafil Red Works

Sildenafil selectively inhibits the enzyme phosphodiesterase‑5, which normally degrades cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cG‑MP) in the corpus cavernosum of the penis and in pulmonary vascular smooth muscle. By blocking PDE‑5, sildenafil increases cG‑MP levels, enhancing nitric‑oxide‑mediated relaxation of smooth muscle and promoting blood inflow during sexual stimulation. The pharmacodynamic effect typically begins within 30–60 minutes after oral intake, peaks at about 1 hour, and can last up to 4–6 hours. Sildenafil is metabolized primarily by hepatic CYP3A4 and CYP2C9, with a terminal half‑life of approximately 4 hours.

Conditions Treated with Sildenafil Red

• Erectile Dysfunction (ED). ED is the most common indication. Clinical trials have shown that sildenafil improves successful intercourse in >70 % of men with organic or psychogenic causes.
• Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH). In selected patients, sildenafil improves exercise capacity and delays clinical worsening by reducing pulmonary vascular resistance.

In Hong Kong, the prevalence of ED rises with age and comorbidities such as diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular disease. PAH, although rarer, is managed in specialty centers where sildenafil is part of the therapeutic armamentarium.

Suitable Candidates for Sildenafil Red Treatment

• Men aged ≥ 18 years who have a confirmed diagnosis of erectile dysfunction and are able to achieve sexual arousal.
• Patients with PAH classified as World Health Organization (WHO) Group 1, for whom oral therapy is appropriate.
• Individuals who have not responded adequately to lifestyle modification alone (e.g., smoking cessation, weight control).

Sildenafil Red is not appropriate for patients who:

• Use nitrates (e.g., nitroglycerin) or nitric‑oxide donors, due to risk of severe hypotension.
• Have uncontrolled severe hypertension (> 180/110 mmHg) or recent myocardial infarction (< 30 days).
• Suffer from severe hepatic impairment (Child‑Pugh C) or severe renal failure (creatinine clearance < 30 mL/min) without dose adjustment.

Risks, Side Effects, and Interactions

Common

• Headache
• Flushing
• Nasal congestion or rhinitis
• Dyspepsia (indigestion)
• Visual disturbances (e.g., altered colour perception)

Rare

• Myalgia or back pain (often transient)
• Priapism (prolonged erection lasting > 4 hours)
• Sudden hearing loss

Serious

• Severe hypotension, especially when combined with nitrates or alpha‑blockers.
• Cardiac ischemia or arrhythmia in patients with pre‑existing cardiac disease.
• Vision loss due to non‑arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION).

Drug‑Drug Interactions

• Nitrates (e.g., isosorbide dinitrate) – additive vasodilation → fatal hypotension.
• Alpha‑blockers (e.g., tamsulosin) – may cause additive blood‑pressure reduction; initiate sildenafil at low dose.
• CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., ketoconazole, ritonavir) – increase sildenafil plasma levels, necessitating dose reduction.
• CYP3A4 inducers (e.g., rifampicin, carbamazepine) – may lower efficacy.
• Other PDE‑5 inhibitors – concurrent use is contraindicated.

Patients should disclose all current medications, including over‑the‑counter supplements, to avoid adverse interactions.

Practical Use: Dosing, Missed Dose, Overdose

• Standard dosing for ED: 50 mg taken about one hour before sexual activity. The dose may be increased to 100 mg or decreased to 25 mg based on efficacy and tolerability. No more than one dose per 24‑hour period.
• PAH dosing: Typically 20 mg three times daily, taken at evenly spaced intervals.
• Missed dose: Sildenafil is taken only as needed for ED; if a scheduled dose is missed for PAH, take it as soon as remembered unless the next dose is due within 12 hours—then skip the missed dose.
• Overdose: Symptoms may include severe hypotension, fainting, prolonged erection, or chest pain. Immediate medical attention is required; supportive care (fluid resuscitation, vasopressors) is the mainstay.

Precautions:

• Avoid high‑fat meals immediately before dosing, as they may delay absorption.
• Alcohol in excess can increase the risk of hypotension and dizziness.
• Patients with cardiovascular disease should be evaluated for suitability before initiating therapy.

FAQ

• Does Sildenafil Red require a prescription in Hong Kong?
  Yes, it is classified as a prescription‑only medication. A qualified healthcare professional must confirm the indication and suitability before dispensing.

• Can I travel internationally with Sildenafil Red?
  You may carry the medication for personal use, provided it is in its original packaging with a copy of the prescription. Check the import regulations of the destination country before travel.

• What are the inactive ingredients in Sildenafil Red tablets?
  Common excipients include microcrystalline cellulose, lactose monohydrate, magnesium stearate, and hypromellose. The exact composition may vary between manufacturers.

• Is there a difference between 50 mg and 100 mg tablets in terms of safety?
  Both strengths share the same safety profile; the higher dose delivers greater plasma concentrations, which can increase the likelihood of dose‑related side effects such as headache or flushing.

• How should I store Sildenafil Red in Hong Kong’s humid climate?
  Keep tablets in a tightly sealed container at room temperature (15–30 °C), away from moisture and direct sunlight. Do not store in bathrooms or kitchens where humidity is high.

• Can Sildenafil Red be used by patients with diabetes?
  Yes, sildenafil is effective in diabetic men with ED. However, glycaemic control should be optimized, and renal function monitored, as diabetes can affect drug clearance.

• What is the legal limit for personal import of prescription drugs into Hong Kong?
  The Customs and Excise Department permits up to a 3‑month supply for personal use, provided a valid prescription and a statement of personal need are presented.

• Does the red‑colored tablet indicate a different formulation?
  The tablet colour is a branding choice and does not affect the pharmacological activity. All red‑branded tablets contain the same dose of sildenafil citrate.

• Are there any known differences in efficacy of sildenafil among Asian populations?
  Pharmacokinetic studies suggest modest variations in metabolism due to genetic polymorphisms in CYP3A4, but clinical efficacy remains comparable when appropriate dosing is used.

• What should I do if I experience a prolonged erection lasting more than four hours?
  Seek urgent medical care. A prolonged erection (priapism) can cause permanent tissue damage if not promptly treated.

• Does taking Sildenafil Red affect drug testing for employment?
  Sildenafil is not typically screened for in standard employment drug panels. However, if a specific test for PDE‑5 inhibitors is ordered, it may be detectable.

• Can I split or crush Sildenafil Red tablets to adjust the dose?
  Tablets are designed for whole‑tablet administration. Splitting may result in uneven dosing, and crushing can affect absorption. Use the appropriate strength prescribed by your physician.

• Is there a risk of developing tolerance to Sildenafil Red over time?
  Tolerance is uncommon. If efficacy diminishes, dose adjustment or evaluation of underlying causes should be performed by a clinician.

• How does food intake influence the onset of action?
  A high‑fat meal can delay absorption, extending the time to onset by up to 2 hours. Taking the tablet on an empty stomach provides the fastest effect.

• Can Sildenafil Red be used concomitantly with antihypertensive medication?
  Generally safe, but combined use with agents that lower blood pressure (especially nitrates) can result in additive hypotension. Monitoring is advised.
