Cardiax 20mg ( Sildenafil)

Description

Cardiax 20mg (Sildenafil) is a pharmaceutical medication that is FDA-approved to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) in men and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), a form of high blood pressure, in both men and women. It is one of only four phosphodiesterase inhibitors (PDE5 inhibitors) commercially available on the market today. 

PDE5 inhibitors work by blocking the enzymes that inhibit blood flow in parts of your body. When men with erectile dysfunction take sildenafil, it helps the arteries in their penis expand to allow more blood flow and firmer, longer-lasting erections. When people PAH take sildenafil, the medication helps open up any narrowed arteries in their lungs and improve their circulation during periods of exercise.

What Is Cardiax 20mg?

Cardiax 20mg (also called sildenafil citrate) is a prescription drug used to treat erectile dysfunction in men and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) in men and women. It works by blocking the enzymes that make it more difficult for blood vessels to dilate and circulate freely through your body. 

In 1998, Pfizer patented sildenafil under the brand name Viagra and began selling it to consumers worldwide. In 2005, the FDA re-approved sildenafil to treat people with PAH. To make sure that everyone could tell the difference between the two drugs, Pfizer marketed this new use of sildenafil under the name Revatio.

Is Cardiax 20mg the Same as Viagra?

Sildenafil is the generic form of Viagra, meaning it is Cardiax 20mg to the brand-name drug. It contains the same active ingredients in identical amounts, and it helps people manage their medical conditions in the same way. There are only two differences between a generic medication and a brand-name medication: the inactive ingredient list (the ingredients that have no therapeutic effect) and the drug’s cost. Generics are generally cheaper than brand-name drugs.

Because generic drugs and brand-name drugs are identical, their dosages should act identically. There is no reason to suspect that 20 milligrams (mg) of sildenafil wouldn’t work the same way 20 mg of Viagra would work for someone taking the medication to treat ED.

What Dosages Are Available for Cardiax 20mg?

Cardiax 20mg is available in 25 mg, 50 mg, and 100 mg dosages. The dosage prescribed depends on your age and overall health, the severity of your condition, how well you respond to the drug, and any other medications you take.

If you suffer from heart problems or have a history of heart attack, heart failure, or other cardiovascular issues, your healthcare provider may prescribe a lower dose of sildenafil to avoid any adverse effects from taking the drug.

Cardiax 20mg also comes with a risk of drug interactions with certain pharmaceuticals, particularly nitrates, nitroglycerin, or alpha-blockers. If you take any of these, sildenafil may not be right for you.
