Clinical data
Cardiac studies. The use of Vega Extra 120 Mg in doses up to 100 mg did not lead to clinically significant ECG changes in healthy volunteers. The maximum decrease in systolic pressure in the supine position after taking Vega Extra 120 Mg at a dose of 100 mg was 8.3 mm Hg.art., and diastolic pressure — 5.3 mm Hg.a More pronounced, but also transient effect on blood PRESSURE was observed in patients taking nitrates (see "Contraindications" and "Interaction").
In a study of the hemodynamic effect of Vega Extra 120 Mg in a single dose of 100 mg in 14 patients with severe coronary artery disease (more than 70% of patients had stenosis of at least one coronary artery), systolic and diastolic resting pressure decreased by 7 and 6%, respectively, and pulmonary systolic pressure decreased by 9%. Vega Extra 120 Mg did not affect cardiac output and did not interfere with blood flow in stenotic coronary arteries, and also led to an increase (by about 13%) of adenosine-induced coronary flow in both stenotic and intact coronary arteries. In a double-blind placebo-controlled study of 144 patients with erectile dysfunction and stable angina, taking antianginal drugs (except nitrates), exercise was performed until the severity of symptoms of angina increased. The duration of the exercise was significantly longer (19.9 seconds; 0.9–38.9 seconds) in patients taking Vega Extra 120 Mg in a single dose of 100 mg, compared with patients receiving placebo.
In a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled study, the effect of changing the dose of Vega Extra 120 Mg (up to 100 mg) in men (n=568) with erectile dysfunction and hypertension, taking more than two antihypertensive drugs, was studied. Vega Extra Cobra 120 improved erection in 71% of men compared to 18% in the placebo group. The frequency of adverse effects was comparable to that in other groups of patients, as well as in those taking more than three antihypertensive drugs.
Studies of visual impairment. In some patients, 1 h after taking Sildenafil Tablets Vega Extra Cobra at a dose of 100 mg with the Farnsworth-Mansell test 100 revealed a slight and transient violation of the ability to distinguish shades of color (blue/green). After 2 hours after taking the drug, these changes were absent. It is believed that color vision impairment is caused by inhibition of PDE-6, which is involved in the process of color transmission in the retina. Vega Extra 120 Mg had no effect on visual acuity, contrast perception, electroretinogram, IOP or pupil diameter.
Vega Extra Cobra is a potent selective inhibitor of cGMP-specific PDE-5.
Mechanism of action
The implementation of the physiological mechanism of erection is associated with the release of nitric oxide (NO) in the cavernous body during sexual stimulation. This, in turn, leads to an increase in the level of cGMP, the subsequent relaxation of smooth muscle tissue of the cavernous body and an increase in blood flow.
Cobra Vega Extra Strong 120mg does not have a direct relaxing effect on the isolated cavernous human body, but enhances the effect of nitric oxide by inhibiting PDE-5, which is responsible for the disintegration of cGMP.
Selective Vega 120 Mg against PDE5 in vitro, its activity against PDE5 superior activity against other known PDE isoenzymes: PDE-6 — 10 times; PDE-1 more than 80 times; PDE-2, PDE-4, PDE-7 PDE–11 more than 700 times. Cobra Vega is 4000 times more selective for PDE-5 than PDE-3, which is crucial because PDE-3 is one of the key enzymes in the regulation of myocardial contractility.
A prerequisite for the effectiveness of Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 Mg is sexual stimulation.
Vega Extra 120 Mg restores impaired erectile function in conditions of sexual stimulation by increasing blood flow to the cavernous bodies of the penis.
Cardiovascular complications
During the post-marketing use of Vega Extra 120 Mg for the treatment of erectile dysfunction, adverse events such as severe cardiovascular complications (including myocardial infarction, unstable angina, sudden cardiac death, ventricular arrhythmia, hemorrhagic stroke, transient ischemic attack, hypertension and hypotension) were reported, which had a temporary connection with the use of Extra Vega. Most of these patients, but not all of them, had risk factors for cardiovascular complications. Many of these adverse events were observed shortly after sexual activity, and some were observed after taking Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 Mg Cobra without subsequent sexual activity. It is not possible to establish a direct link between the reported adverse events and those or other factors.
Hypotension
Vegah Extra 120 Mg has a systemic vasodilating effect, leading to a transient decrease in blood PRESSURE, which is not clinically significant and does not lead to any consequences in most patients. However, before prescribing Vega Extra 120 Mg, the doctor should carefully assess the risk of possible undesirable manifestations of vasodilating action in patients with relevant diseases, especially against the background of sexual activity. Increased susceptibility to vasodilators is observed in patients with obstruction of the output tract of the left ventricle (aortic stenosis, GOCMP), as well as with the rare syndrome of multiple systemic atrophy, manifested by a severe violation of the regulation of blood PRESSURE from the autonomic nervous system.
Since the combined use of Cobra Vega 120 Mg and α-blockers can lead to symptomatic hypotension in some sensitive patients, Vega Extra 120 Mg should be used with caution in patients taking α-blockers (see "Interaction"). To minimize the risk of postural hypotension in patients taking α-blockers, the drug Vega Extra 120 Mg should be started only after achieving stabilization of hemodynamic parameters in these patients. It should also consider reducing the initial dose of Vega Extra 120 Mg (see. "Dosage and administration"). The doctor should inform patients about what actions should be taken in case of symptoms of postural hypotension.
Visual impairment
In rare cases, during post-approval use of all of the inhibitors of PDE5, including Vega Extra 120 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 Vega Extra 120 Mg, 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 Extra Vega 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 Vega Extra Cobra 130 Mg in patients with retinitis pigmentosa absent, so these patients should not be used Vega Extra 120 Mg (see "Contraindications").
