Dosage and administration
Inside, can be taken with or without water. When taking the drug, you should put a tablet, dispersed in the oral cavity, on the tongue, after which it will quickly dissolve, and it can be swallowed. The tablet should be taken immediately after opening the blister. Patients who are recommended a dose of Sildenafil Tablets Vegah Extra Cobra 100 mg, the second tablet of Vega Extra 50 mg should be taken after complete dissolution of the first tablet.
The recommended dose for most adult patients is 50 mg approximately 1 hour before sexual activity. Taking into account the effectiveness and tolerability of the dose can be increased to 100 mg or reduced to 25 mg (only tablets coated with a film, the appropriate dosage). The maximum recommended dose is 100 mg. Patients who are recommended a dose of Cobra 120 Vega Extra 100 mg, it is necessary to take 2 table., dispersible in the oral cavity, dosage 50 mg consecutively one after another. The maximum recommended frequency of use — 1 time per day. It should be borne in mind that the absorption of Cobra Vega Extra significantly slows down when used in combination with fatty foods.
Special patient groups
Renal impairment. In mild to moderate renal failure dose adjustment is not required, in severe renal failure (Creatinine CL <30 ml/min) Sildenafil Vega Extra 120 dose should be reduced to 25 mg.
Hepatic impairment. Since the excretion of Cobra Vega Extra is disturbed in patients with liver damage (in particular, cirrhosis), the dose of Cobra Vega Extra should be reduced to 25 mg.
Joint application with other drugs. Joint use with ritonavir is not recommended. In any case, the maximum dose of Cobra Vega Extra under any circumstances should not exceed 25 mg, and the frequency of application — 1 time in 48 h (see "Interaction").
When combined with inhibitors of CYP3A4 isoenzyme (erythromycin, saquinavir, ketoconazole, Itraconazole), the initial dose of Vega Extra Strong 120 should be 25 mg (see "Interaction").
To minimize the risk of postural hypotension in patients taking α-blockers, Vega Extra Cobra 130 Mg should be started only after achieving hemodynamic stabilization in these patients. Consideration should also be given to reducing the initial dose of Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 (see special instructions and Interactions).
Old age. Adjustment of the dose of Cobra Vega Extra is not required.
Visual impairment
In rare cases, during post-approval use of all of the inhibitors of PDE5, including Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 Mg, reported NESN is a rare disease and the cause of the decrease or loss of vision. Most of these patients had risk factors, such as decreased ratios of excavation diameter to optic disc (stagnant disc), age over 50, diabetes, hypertension, CHD, hyperlipidemia, and Smoking. In an observational study evaluated whether recent use of drugs class of inhibitors PDE-5 with an acute onset NESN. The results indicate approximately a 2-fold increase in risk NESN within 5T1/2 after application of the PDE-5 inhibitor. According to published literature, the annual incidence of npins IS 2.5–11.8 cases per 100,000 men aged ≥50 years in the General population. Patients should be advised to stop Cobra Vega Extra therapy in case of sudden loss of vision and consult a doctor immediately.
Persons who have already had a case NESN have an increased risk of relapse NESN. Therefore, the doctor should discuss this risk with such patients, as well as the potential chance of adverse effects of PDE-5 inhibitors. PDE-5 inhibitors, including Cobra Vega Extra, in such patients should be used with caution and only in situations where the expected benefit outweighs the risk. In patients with episodes of development PINZN with loss of vision in one eye receiving Cobra Vega Extra is contraindicated (see "Contraindications").
A small number of patients with hereditary retinitis pigmentosa have genetically determined disorders of the PDE of the retina. Information about the safety of the drug Cobra Vega Extra in patients with retinitis pigmentosa absent, so these patients should not be used Cobra Vega Extra (see "Contraindications").
Clinical data
In a placebo-controlled cross-examination of patients with proven early age macular degeneration (n=9), Cobra Vega Extra was well tolerated at a single dose of 100 mg. There were no clinically significant changes in vision evaluated by special visual tests (visual acuity, Amsler lattice, color perception, color simulation, Humphrey perimeter and photostress).
Efficiency. The efficacy and safety of Cobra Vega Extra were evaluated in 21 randomized double-blind placebo-controlled studies lasting up to 6 months in 3000 patients from 19 to 87 years with erectile dysfunction of different etiology (organic, psychogenic or mixed). The efficacy of the drug was evaluated globally using an erection diary, an international erectile function index (validated questionnaire on the state of sexual function) and a partner survey.
The effectiveness of Vega Coin, defined as the ability to achieve and maintain an erection sufficient for satisfactory sexual intercourse, has been demonstrated in all studies and confirmed in long-term studies lasting 1 year. In studies with the use of fixed-dose proportion of patients reporting that treatment improved their erections were 62% (dose of Cobra Vega Extra 25 mg), 74% (dose Cobra Vega Extra 50 mg) and 82% (dose Cobra Vega Extra 100 mg) compared to 25% in the placebo group. Analysis of the international index of erectile function showed that in addition to improving erection treatment Vega Visa also increased the quality of orgasm, allowing to achieve satisfaction from sexual intercourse and overall satisfaction.
According to the generalized data, 59% of patients with diabetes, 43% of patients who underwent radical prostatectomy and 83% of patients with spinal cord injuries (against 16, 15 and 12% in the placebo group, respectively) were reported to have improved erection in the treatment of Vegah Extra 120 Indication.
Pharmacokinetics
The pharmacokinetics of Vega Extra in the recommended dose range is linear.
Suction. After intake of Vegah Extra 120 Indication is rapidly absorbed. Absolute bioavailability averages about 40% (25 to 63%). In vitro Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 at a concentration of about 1.7 ng/ml (3.5 nm) inhibits the activity of PDE-5 50%. After a single dose of Cobra Vega Extra Strong 120mg 100 mg average Cmax free Cobra Vega Extra in plasma men is about 18 ng/ml (38 nm). Cmax when taking Cobra Vega Extra inside fasting is achieved for an average of 60 minutes (from 30 to 120 minutes). When taken in combination with fatty foods, the rate of absorption decreases: Cmax decreases by an average of 29%, and Tmax increases by 60 minutes, but the degree of absorption does not change significantly (AUC decreases by 11%).
Distribution. The average Vss of Vega Extra Strong 120 is 105 l. the Association of Vega 120 Mg and its main circulating N-demethyl metabolite with plasma proteins is about 96% and does not depend on the total concentration of the drug. Less than 0.0002% of the dose of Vega Pills (an average of 188 ng) was found in sperm 90 minutes after taking the drug.
Metabolism. Cobra Vega Extra is metabolized mainly in the liver by the action of CYP3A4 isoenzyme (main pathway) and CYP2C9 isoenzyme (minor pathway). The main circulating active metabolite, formed as a result of N-demethylation of Cobra Vega Extra, undergoes further metabolism. The selectivity of this metabolite against PDE is comparable to that of Cobra Vega Extra, and its activity against PDE-5 in vitro is about 50% of the activity of Cobra Vega Extra. The concentration of the metabolite in the blood plasma of healthy volunteers was about 40% of the concentration of Cobra Vega Extra. N-demethyl metabolite undergoes further metabolism; its T1/2 is about 4 no.
Breeding. The total clearance of Cobra Vega Extra is 41 l/h, and the final T1/2 — 3-5 h. After oral administration, as well as after I/V, Cobra Vega Extra is excreted as metabolites, mainly by the intestine (about 80% oral dose) and to a lesser extent by the kidneys (about 13% oral dose).
