Sildenafil is a prescription medication designed to support erectile function by improving blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation. Commonly known as the active ingredient in Viagra®, Sildenafil may help men achieve and maintain an erection firm enough for sexual activity.
At Ares Performance, Sildenafil may be prescribed as part of a personalized men’s health treatment plan following an appropriate medical evaluation. Your provider will consider your health history, current medications, symptoms, and treatment goals before determining whether Sildenafil is appropriate for you.
Sildenafil belongs to a class of medications known as phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors. It works by helping relax blood vessels and increasing blood flow to the penis when sexual stimulation occurs.
Sildenafil does not increase sexual desire and does not cause an automatic erection. Sexual stimulation is still necessary for the medication to work.
For many people, Sildenafil begins working within approximately 30 to 60 minutes. Its effects may last for several hours, although timing and effectiveness can vary depending on dosage, food intake, overall health, and other medications.
Sildenafil is generally well tolerated when used as prescribed, but side effects may occur. Common side effects can include:
Serious side effects are uncommon but require immediate medical attention. Seek emergency care if you experience chest pain, sudden vision or hearing loss, fainting, or an erection lasting longer than four hours.
Sildenafil should not be taken with nitrate medications, such as nitroglycerin, because the combination can cause a potentially dangerous drop in blood pressure. Certain other medications may also interact with Sildenafil, so always provide your healthcare provider with a complete list of medications and supplements you take.
Take Sildenafil exactly as directed by your Ares Performance healthcare provider.
Sildenafil is commonly taken as needed approximately 30 to 60 minutes before anticipated sexual activity. Your provider will determine the appropriate dose based on your individual health needs and response to treatment.
Sildenafil may be taken with or without food, although a large or high-fat meal may delay how quickly it begins working. Do not take more Sildenafil than prescribed or use it more frequently than directed.
Limiting excessive alcohol intake may also help reduce the risk of dizziness, low blood pressure, and reduced erectile performance.
Always follow your provider's instructions and contact your healthcare team if you experience concerning side effects or have questions about your treatment.
Important: Sildenafil is available by prescription and should only be used under the supervision of a licensed healthcare professional.
