How does Caverta®
work?
Launched by Ranbaxy, CAVERTA® enables many men with ED to respond
to sexual stimulation. When a man is sexually aroused, the arteries
in the penis relax and widen, allowing more blood to flow into the penis.
As the arteries in the penis expand and harden, the veins that normally
carry blood away from the penis become compressed, restricting the blood
flow out of the penis. With more blood flowing in and less flowing out,
the penis enlarges, resulting in an erection.
Please understand that CAVERTA®
is not a hormone or aphrodisiac, it works only when a man is sexually
stimulated.
How much time does
it take to work?
Take CAVERTA® about one hour before you plan to have sex. Beginning
in about 30 minutes and lasts for up to 4 hours, CAVERTA® can help
you get an erection if you are sexually excited. If you take CAVERTA®
after a high-fat meal (such as fish & chips, cheeseburger or French
fries), the medicine may take a little longer to start working. CAVERTA®
can help you get an erection when you are sexually excited. You will
not get an erection just by taking the pill.
What Caverta®
does not do.
CAVERTA® does not cure erectile dysfunction. It is a treatment for
erectile dysfunction. CAVERTA® does not protect you or your partner
from getting sexually transmitted diseases, including HIV-the virus
that causes AIDS. CAVERTA® is not a hormone or an aphrodisiac.
Who should take
Caverta®?
Ask your doctor if your heart is healthy enough for sexual activity.
If you take any medicines that contain nitrates - either regularly or
as needed - you should never take CAVERTA®. If you take CAVERTA®
with any nitrate medicine or recreational drug containing nitrates,
your blood pressure could suddenly drop to an unsafe level. You could
get dizzy, faint, or even have a heart attack or stroke.
Nitrates are found in many
prescription medicines that are used to treat angina (chest pain due
to heart disease) such as: nitroglycerine (sprays, ointments, skin patches
or pastes, and tablets that are swallowed or dissolved in the mouth)
isosorbide mononitrate and isosorbide dinitrate (tablets that are swallowed,
chewed, or dissolved in the mouth) Nitrates are also found in recreational
drugs such as amyl nitrate or nitrite ("poppers"). If you
are not sure if any of your medicines contain nitrates, or if you do
not understand what nitrates are, ask your doctor or pharmacist. CAVERTA®
is only for patients with erectile dysfunction. CAVERTA® is not
for newborns, children, or women.
Do not let anyone else take
your CAVERTA®. CAVERTA® must be used only under a doctor's supervision.
Side effects.
Like all medicines, CAVERTA® (Sildenafil citrate) can cause some
side effects. These effects are usually mild to moderate and usually
don't last longer than a few hours. Some of these side effects are more
likely to occur with higher doses.
The most common side effects
of Sildenafil citrate are headache, flushing of the face and upset stomach.
Less common side effects that may occur are temporary changes in colour
vision (such as trouble telling the difference between blue and green
objects or having a blue colour tinge to them), eyes being more sensitive
to light or blurred vision. In rare instances, men have reported an
erection that lasts many hours. You should call a doctor immediately
if you ever have an erection that lasts more than 4 hours. If not treated
right away, permanent damage to your penis could occur.
Heart attack, stroke, irregular
heartbeats and death have been reported rarely in men taking Sildenafil
citrate. Most, but not all, of these men had heart problems before taking
this medicine. It is not possible to determine whether these events
were directly related to Sildenafil citrate. Sildenafil citrate may
cause other side effects besides those listed on this sheet. If you
want more information or develop any side effect or symptom you are
concerned about, call your doctor.
What to tell your doctor
before beginning Caverta®.
Only your doctor can decide if CAVERTA® is right for you. CAVERTA®
can cause mild, temporary lowering of your blood pressure. You will
need to have a thorough medical exam to diagnose your erectile dysfunction
and to find out if you can safely take CAVERTA® alone or with your
other medicines.
Your doctor should determine
if your heart is healthy enough to handle the extra strain of having
sex. Be sure to tell your doctor if you have had:
— Any heart problems
(e.g., angina, chest pain, heart failure, irregular heart beats, or
heart attack), have ever had a stroke,
— Low or high blood
pressure,
— A rare inherited
eye disease called retinitis pigmentosa,
— Any kidney problems
or any liver problems,
— Any blood problems,
including sickle cell anemia or leukemia,
— Allergies to Sildenafil
or any of the other ingredients of CAVERTA® tablets,
— A deformed penis,
Peyronie's disease, or ever had an erection that lasted more than 4
hours,
— Stomach ulcers or
any types of bleeding problems or, if you are taking any other medicines.
Finding the right
dose for you.
CAVERTA® comes in different doses (25 mg, 50 mg and 100 mg).
If you do not get the results
you expect, talk with your doctor. You and your doctor can determine
the dose that works best for you.
Do not take more CAVERTA®
than your doctor prescribes. If you think you need a larger dose of
CAVERTA®, check with your doctor.
CAVERTA® should not
be taken more than once a day. If you are older than 65 years, or have
serious liver or kidney problems, your doctor may start you at the lowest
dose (25 mg) of CAVERTA®. If you are taking protease inhibitors,
such as for the treatment of HIV, your doctor may recommend a 25 mg
dose and may limit you to a maximum single dose of 25mg of CAVERTA®
in a 48-hour period.
