Indications
Panagra 50 is used to treat men with erectile dysfunction, which is the inability to achieve or maintain an erection for satisfactory sexual performance. For Panagra 50 to work, sexual stimulation is needed. Panagra 50 is also used to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension.
Pharmacology
Panagra 50 works by increasing the levels of cGMP in the penis when sexual stimulation occurs. This helps relax the muscles and allows more blood to flow into the penis. Panagra 50 does this by blocking the enzyme PDE5, which normally breaks down cGMP. Panagra 50 has no effect on its own without sexual stimulation. The body processes Panagra 50 mainly in the liver, and Panagra 50 lasts about 4 hours in the system.
Dosage & Administration
Erectile Dysfunction: The usual dose is 50 mg, taken about 1 hour before sexual activity. Panagra 50 can be taken anytime between 4 hours and 30 minutes before sex. The dose can be adjusted between 25 mg and 100 mg depending on effectiveness and tolerance. Panagra 50 can be taken once a day at most.
Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension: The usual dose is 20 mg, taken three times a day, with or without food.
Interaction
Panagra 50 is mainly processed by certain enzymes in the liver. Drugs that affect these enzymes can change how Panagra 50 works. Some medicines, like ketoconazole and erythromycin, can increase its levels in the body, while others, like rifampin, can decrease its levels. Panagra 50 should not be taken with nitrates or nitric oxide donors, as this can lower blood pressure too much. Taking Panagra 50 with some other medications, like alpha-blockers, may also lower blood pressure and cause dizziness.
Contraindications
Panagra 50 should not be used by anyone allergic to any of its ingredients or by those taking nitrates, as Panagra 50 can dangerously lower blood pressure.
Side Effects
Common side effects include face swelling, headache, dizziness, and stomach pain. Panagra 50 can also cause heart problems, vision issues, and prolonged or painful erections. Serious effects like heart attack, stroke, or seizures can occur, though these are rare. Consult a doctor if any of these happen.
Pregnancy & Lactation
Panagra 50 is not intended for use in women and should not be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Animal studies have not shown harm, but there is no clear evidence in humans.
Precautions & Warnings
Panagra 50 should be used with caution in those with heart problems or certain other health conditions, such as low or high blood pressure. Panagra 50 may interact with other medications, so a doctor should be consulted before starting treatment. In some cases, Panagra 50 may cause side effects like low blood pressure, dizziness, or heart-related issues. If symptoms worsen or cause concern, see a doctor immediately.
Overdose Effects
An overdose may cause symptoms like nausea, vomiting, dizziness, and prolonged erections. Seek medical help if overdose is suspected.
Therapeutic Class
Panagra 50 belongs to a class of medications known as phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors.
Storage Conditions
Store at room temperature, away from light and moisture. Keep out of reach of children.
