Clinical data
Cardiac studies. The use of Cobra Vega Extra Strong 120mg 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 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 Cobra 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%. Cobra Vega 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 Cobra Vega 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 Cobra Vega 120 Mg (up to 100 mg) in men (n=568) with erectile dysfunction and hypertension, taking more than two antihypertensive drugs, was studied. Cobra Vega Extra 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 Cobra Vega 120 Mg 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. Vegah Extra 120 Mg had no effect on visual acuity, contrast perception, electroretinogram, IOP or pupil diameter.
Influence of Cobra 120 Vega Extra on other drugs
Cobra Vega 120 Mg is a weak inhibitor of cytochrome P450 — 1A2, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, 2E1 and 3A4 ISOENZYMES (IC50 >150 µmol). When taking Cobra Vega 120 Mg in recommended doses, its Cmax is about 1 µmol, so it is unlikely that Cobra Vega 120 Mg can affect the clearance of the substrates of these isoenzymes.
Vegah Extra 120 Mg increases the hypotensive effect of nitrates both with long-term use of the latter, and with their appointment for urgent indications. In this regard, the use of Cobra Vega 120 Mg in combination with nitrates or nitric oxide donators is contraindicated. While taking α-adrenoblocker doxazosin (4 and 8 mg) and Vega Pills (25, 50 and 100 mg) in patients with benign prostate hyperplasia with stable hemodynamics, the average additional decrease in sad/dad in the supine position was 7/7, 9/5 and 8/4 mm Hg.article, respectively, while in the standing position — 6/6, 11/4 mmHg, and 4/5.art. respectively. Reported rare cases of symptomatic postural hypotension in such patients, manifested in the form of dizziness (without fainting). In some sensitive patients receiving α-blockers, simultaneous use of Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 Mg can lead to symptomatic hypotension.
There were no signs of significant interaction with tolbutamide (250 mg) or warfarin (40 mg), which are metabolized by CYP2C9 isoenzyme.
Cobra Vega 120 Mg (100 mg) has no effect on the pharmacokinetics of the HIV protease inhibitor, saquinavir, which is a substrate of CYP3A4 isoenzyme, at its constant level in the blood.
The simultaneous use of Cobra Vega 120 Mg at equilibrium (80 mg 3 times a day) leads to an increase in the AUC and Cmax of bosentan (125 mg 2 times a day) by 49.8 and 42%, respectively.
Cobra Vega 120 Mg (50 mg) does not cause an additional increase in bleeding time when taking acetylsalicylic acid (150 mg).
Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 Mg Cobra (50 mg) does not increase the hypotensive effect of alcohol in healthy volunteers with Cmax of alcohol in the blood on average 0.08‰ (80 mg/DL).
In patients with hypertension, no signs of interaction of Cobra Vega 120 Mg (100 mg) with amlodipine were found. The average additional reduction in blood PRESSURE in the supine position is 8 mm Hg.V. (systolic) and 7 mm Hg.V. (diastolic).
The use of Vegah Extra 130 in combination with antihypertensive agents does not lead to additional side effects.
Cardiovascular complications
During the post-marketing use of Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 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 Cobra Vega 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 Vegab Extra 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 Cobra Vega 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 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 Cobra Vega 120 Mg 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 Vegab Extra, in such patients should be used with caution and only in situations where the expected benefit outweighs the risk.
When using the drug Vega Visa 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
Effect of other drugs on the pharmacokinetics of Cobra 120 Vega Extra
The metabolism of Sildenafil Vega Extra 130 Mg occurs mainly under the action of CYP3A4 isoenzyme (main pathway), so inhibitors of this isoenzyme can reduce the clearance of Cobra Vega 120 Mg, and inducers, respectively, increase the clearance of Vega Extra Strong 120. A decrease in the clearance of Cobra Vega Extra Strong 120 Mg with simultaneous use of inhibitors of CYP3A4 isoenzyme (ketoconazole, erythromycin, cimetidine).
Cimetidine (800 mg), a nonspecific inhibitor of CYP3A4 isoenzyme, when taken together with Vegah Extra 120 Mg (50 mg) causes an increase in the concentration of Cobra Vega 120 Mg in plasma by 56%.
A single dose of 100 mg of Cobra Vega 120 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 Sildenafil Tablets Vega Extra Cobra by 182%.
When co-administered Vegah Cobra (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 Vega Cobra 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 Cobra Vega 120 Mg.
The simultaneous use of Cobra Vega 120 Mg (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 Vega Extra Strong 120 in blood plasma is about 200 ng/ml (after a single application of one Cobra Vega 120 Mg — 5 ng/ml). This is consistent with the ritonavir effect on a wide range of cytochrome P450 substrates. Vegab Extra does not affect the pharmacokinetics of ritonavir. Given these data, the simultaneous reception of ritonavir and Cobra Vega 120 Mg is not recommended. In any case, the maximum dose of Vega Extra under any circumstances should not exceed 25 mg for 48 hours. If Vegal Extra is taken in the recommended doses, patients receiving strong inhibitors of CYP3A4 isoenzyme at the same time, then Cmax free Cobra Vega 120 Mg 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 Cobra Vega 120 Mg.
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 Cobra Vega 120 Mg in Css (80 mg 3 times a day) showed a decrease in AUC and Cmax Cobra Vega 120 Mg by 62.6 and 52.4%, respectively. Cobra Vega Extra increased the AUC and Cmax of bosentan by 49.8 and 42%, respectively.
It is assumed that the simultaneous use of Vega Pills with powerful inducers of CYP3A4 isoenzyme, such as rifampicin, can lead to a greater decrease in the concentration of Cobra Vega 120 Mg 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 Vegal Extra.
Azithromycin (500 mg/day for 3 days) has no effect on AUC, Cmax, Tmax, excretion rate constant and T1/2 Vega Extra Cobra or its main circulating metabolite.

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 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 Cobra 120 in patients with retinitis pigmentosa absent, so these patients should not be used Vega Extra Strong 120 (see "Contraindications").
