📦 Product Specifications
HAB Pharma is a trusted pharmaceutical company known for producing high-quality generic medications. Abhigra 100mg contains Sildenafil Citrate, the same active ingredient as Viagra®, and is manufactured under strict quality standards. It is a PDE5 inhibitor that helps increase blood flow to the penis, enabling an erection in response to sexual stimulation.
🔬 How Abhigra (Sildenafil) Works
⚙️ Mechanism of Action
Sildenafil selectively inhibits phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5), the enzyme responsible for breaking down cGMP in the corpus cavernosum. When sexual stimulation causes local release of nitric oxide (NO), PDE5 inhibition leads to increased cGMP levels, resulting in smooth muscle relaxation and enhanced blood inflow to the penis. This allows men with erectile dysfunction to achieve and maintain an erection sufficient for sexual activity.
📊 Pharmacokinetics
- Bioavailability: ~40%
- Peak plasma: 30–120 minutes (fasting)
- Food effect: High-fat meal delays absorption by ~1 hour, reduces peak levels
- Protein binding: 96%
- Half-life: ~4 hours
- Metabolism: Liver (CYP3A4, CYP2C9)
- Excretion: 80% feces, 13% urine
💊 Dosage & Administration
- Starting dose: 50 mg as needed, ~1 hour before sexual activity
- Dose range: 25–100 mg based on effectiveness and toleration
- Maximum dose: 100 mg per day
- Frequency: Maximum once per day
- Timing window: 30 minutes to 4 hours before sexual activity
- Elderly (≥65 years)
- Hepatic impairment (e.g., cirrhosis)
- Severe renal impairment (CrCl <30 mL/min)
- Concomitant strong CYP3A4 inhibitors
- Ritonavir: Max 25 mg in 48 hours
⚠️ Important: Sexual stimulation is required for Abhigra to work – it does not cause an automatic erection. Take on an empty stomach for fastest absorption; a high-fat meal may delay onset.
DO NOT TAKE ABHIGRA IF:
- You take any nitrates (nitroglycerin, isosorbide mononitrate/dinitrate) – even recreationally (“poppers” like amyl nitrate). Combining can cause a sudden, dangerous drop in blood pressure leading to heart attack or stroke.
- You take guanylate cyclase stimulators (riociguat for pulmonary hypertension).
- You are allergic to sildenafil or any tablet ingredients.
- Sexual activity is inadvisable due to cardiovascular status.
Sildenafil has mild vasodilatory properties, causing transient decreases in blood pressure (mean 8.4/5.5 mmHg). Use with caution in patients with:
- Left ventricular outflow obstruction (aortic stenosis, IHSS)
- Severely impaired autonomic control of blood pressure
- Myocardial infarction, stroke, or life-threatening arrhythmia within the last 6 months
- Resting hypotension (BP <90/50 mmHg) or hypertension (BP >170/110 mmHg)
- Cardiac failure or coronary artery disease causing unstable angina
Consult your doctor if you have any cardiovascular conditions before using Abhigra.
📋 Side Effects & Precautions
- Headache (10-16%)
- Flushing (10%)
- Dyspepsia / indigestion (7%)
- Nasal congestion (4%)
- Dizziness (2%)
- Nausea (2%)
- Visual disturbances (3%) – blue/green color tinge, light sensitivity
- Prolonged erection >4 hours (priapism) – can cause permanent tissue damage
- Sudden vision loss in one or both eyes (NAION)
- Sudden hearing decrease or loss
- Severe hypotension (especially with nitrates)
- Chest pain, shortness of breath – seek emergency care
🔄 Important Drug Interactions
| Drug Class / Examples | Interaction | Recommendation |
|---|---|---|
| Nitrates (nitroglycerin, isosorbide, amyl nitrate) | Severe hypotension | CONTRAINDICATED |
| Alpha-blockers (doxazosin, tamsulosin) | Additive hypotensive effects | Initiate sildenafil at 25 mg |
| CYP3A4 inhibitors (ketoconazole, erythromycin) | ↑ sildenafil exposure (3-fold) | Consider starting dose 25 mg |
| Ritonavir (HIV protease inhibitor) | ↑↑ sildenafil exposure (11-fold) | Max 25 mg in 48 hours |
| Rifampin (CYP3A4 inducer) | ↓ sildenafil levels | Monitor efficacy |

⚠️ Important Medical Information
Sildenafil is a prescription medication used for erectile dysfunction. It should not be taken by individuals taking nitrates (for chest pain) or riociguat. This product is intended for use by men over 18 years of age. Consult your healthcare provider before use, especially if you have heart disease, high or low blood pressure, liver or kidney disease, a history of stroke, or conditions predisposing to priapism. Do not exceed the recommended dose of one tablet per day. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience an erection lasting longer than 4 hours, sudden vision loss, or sudden hearing loss.
