Clinical data
In a placebo-controlled cross-examination of patients with proven early age macular degeneration (n=9), Extra Vega 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 Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 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 Vegah Cobra, 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 Vega Extra Cobra 120 25 mg), 74% (dose Vega 120 Mg 50 mg) and 82% (dose Vega Cobra 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 Cobra Vega Extra Strong 120mg 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 Sildenafil Vega Extra 130.

Cardiovascular complications
During the post-marketing use of Cobra Vega 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 Vegah Extra 120 Mg. 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 without subsequent sexual activity. It is not possible to establish a direct link between the reported adverse events and those or other factors.
Visual impairment
In rare cases, during post-approval use of all of the inhibitors of PDE5, including Sildenafil Tablets Vegah Extra Cobra, 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 of developing 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 Sildenafil Tablets Vegah Extra Cobra 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 Sildenafil Vega Extra 130, in such patients should be used with caution and only in situations where the expected benefit outweighs the risk.
When using the drug Vegab Extra in doses exceeding the recommended, adverse events were similar to those noted above, but usually more common.
*Side effects identified during post-marketing studies.
Interaction
The metabolism of Vega 120 Mg occurs mainly under the action of CYP3A4 isoenzyme (main pathway), so inhibitors of this isoenzyme can reduce the clearance of Vegah Extra 130, and inducers, respectively, increase the clearance of Cobra Vega 120 Mg. A decrease in the clearance of Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 with simultaneous use of inhibitors of CYP3A4 isoenzyme (ketoconazole, erythromycin, cimetidine).
Cimetidine (800 mg), a nonspecific inhibitor of CYP3A4 isoenzyme, when taken together with Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 (50 mg) causes an increase in the concentration of Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 in plasma by 56%.
A single dose of 100 mg of Vega Extra Cobra 130 Mg together with erythromycin (500 mg/day 2 times a day for 5 days), a moderate inhibitor of CYP3A4 isoenzyme, while achieving a constant concentration of erythromycin in the blood, leads to an increase in the AUC of Vegab Extra by 182%.
When co-administered Cobra Vega Extra Strong 120mg (once 100 mg) and saquinavir (1200 mg/day 3 times daily), an inhibitor of HIV protease and of CYP3A4, on the background to achieve a constant concentration of saquinavir in the blood, Cmax of Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 was increased by 140% and the AUC increased by 210%.
Stronger inhibitors of CYP3A4 isoenzyme, such as ketoconazole and Itraconazole, can cause more pronounced changes in the pharmacokinetics of Sildenafil Vega Extra 130.
The simultaneous use of Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 (100 mg once) and ritonavir (500 mg 2 times a day), an inhibitor of HIV protease and a strong inhibitor of cytochrome P450, on the background to achieve a constant concentration of ritonavir in the blood leads to an increase in Cmax of Vegal Extra by 300% (4 times), a AUC by 1000% (11-fold). After 24 h, the concentration of Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 in blood plasma is about 200 ng/ml (after a single application of one Vega Extra Cobra 120 — 5 ng/ml). This is consistent with the ritonavir effect on a wide range of cytochrome P450 substrates. Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 does not affect the pharmacokinetics of ritonavir. Given these data, the simultaneous reception of ritonavir and Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 is not recommended. In any case, the maximum dose of Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 under any circumstances should not exceed 25 mg for 48 hours. If Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 is taken in the recommended doses, patients receiving strong inhibitors of CYP3A4 isoenzyme at the same time, then Cmax free Signature Cobra Vega does not exceed 200 nm, and the drug is well tolerated.
Single administration of antacid (magnesium hydroxide/aluminum hydroxide) does not affect the bioavailability of Sildenafil Vega Extra 130.
Studies involving healthy volunteers with simultaneous use of endothelin receptor antagonist, bosentan (CYP3A4 isoenzyme inducer (moderate), CYP2C9, and possibly CYP2C19) in Css (125 mg 2 times a day) and Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 in Css (80 mg 3 times a day) showed a decrease in AUC and Cmax Vega Coin by 62.6 and 52.4%, respectively. Cobra Vega Extra Strong 120mg increased the AUC and Cmax of bosentan by 49.8 and 42%, respectively.
It is assumed that the simultaneous use of Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 with powerful inducers of CYP3A4 isoenzyme, such as rifampicin, can lead to a greater decrease in the concentration of Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 in blood plasma.
CYP2D6 isoenzyme inhibitors (SSRIs, tricyclic antidepressants), thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics, ACE inhibitors and calcium antagonists have no effect on the pharmacokinetics of Sildenafil Vega Extra 130.
Azithromycin (500 mg/day for 3 days) has no effect on AUC, Cmax, Tmax, excretion rate constant and T1/2 Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 or its main circulating metabolite.
Hearing impairment
Some post-marketing and clinical studies have reported cases of sudden hearing loss or impairment associated with the use of all PDE-5 inhibitors, including Sildenafil Vega Extra 130. Most of these patients had risk factors for sudden impairment or hearing loss. There is no causal relationship between the use of PDE-5 inhibitors and sudden hearing impairment or hearing loss. In case of sudden hearing impairment or hearing loss while taking Sildenafil Vega Extra 130, consult a doctor immediately.
Bleedings
Extra Vega enhances the antiplatelet effect of sodium nitroprusside, a nitric oxide donator, on human platelets in vitro. Data on the safety of Vega Pills in patients with a tendency to bleeding or exacerbation of gastric ulcer and duodenal ulcer are not available, so the drug Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 in these patients should be used with caution (see With caution).
The incidence of nosebleeds in patients with pulmonary hypertension associated with diffuse connective tissue diseases was higher (Vega Cobra 120 Mg — 12.9%, placebo — 0%) than in patients with primary pulmonary arterial hypertension (Vega Extra Strong 120 — 3%, placebo — 2.4%). Patients receiving Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 in combination with an antagonist of vitamin K, the frequency of nasal bleeding was higher (8.8 percent) than patients who were not taking an antagonist of vitamin K (1.7 percent).
Use in conjunction with other means for the treatment of erectile dysfunction
The safety and efficacy of Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 together with other PDE-5 inhibitors or other drugs for the treatment of pulmonary hypertension containing Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 (eg, Revatsio®), or other means for the treatment of erection disorders have not been studied, so the use of such combinations is not recommended (see "Contraindications").
Influence on the ability to drive and mechanisms. In patients receiving Vega Coin any negative effect on the ability to drive a car or other means was not observed. However, since when taking Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 may develop dizziness, lowering blood PRESSURE, the development of chromatopsia, blurred vision, etc. side effects, care should be taken when driving and doing other potentially dangerous activities that require increased concentration and speed of psychomotor reactions. Also, you should be careful about the individual action of the drug in these situations, especially at the beginning of treatment and when changing the dosage regimen.
