Common use

Forzest is primarily prescribed for the treatment of erectile dysfunction in adult males. It is also used off-label in certain cases of pulmonary arterial hypertension and for the management of lower urinary tract symptoms associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia. The medication works by relaxing smooth muscles in the penile arteries, increasing blood flow to erectile tissues when sexual stimulation occurs.

Dosage and direction

The recommended starting dose is 10 mg taken prior to anticipated sexual activity. Based on efficacy and tolerability, the dose may be increased to 20 mg or decreased to 5 mg. The tablet should be swallowed whole with a glass of water and can be taken with or without food. Sexual stimulation is required for the medication to work effectively. Do not take more than one dose within a 24-hour period.

Precautions

• Not intended for use by women or children
• Avoid consumption of grapefruit or grapefruit juice during treatment
• Use with caution in patients with anatomical penile deformation
• Exercise caution when driving or operating machinery until individual response is known
• Inform your physician of any vision changes during treatment
• Regular follow-up with healthcare provider is recommended

Contraindications

• Hypersensitivity to Tadalafil or any component of the formulation
• Concurrent administration with nitrates or nitric oxide donors
• Patients with severe cardiovascular disease unstable for sexual activity
• Recent history of stroke or myocardial infarction (within last 6 months)
• Uncontrolled hypertension or hypotension
• Hereditary degenerative retinal disorders

Possible side effects

• Headache (most common)
• Dyspepsia
• Back pain
• Myalgia
• Nasal congestion
• Flushing
• Dizziness
• Vision changes (including blurred vision and color tinge)
• Priapism (prolonged erection lasting more than 4 hours) - requires immediate medical attention
• Sudden hearing loss (rare)
• Cardiovascular events in predisposed individuals

Drug interaction

• Nitrates: Absolute contraindication - may cause severe hypotension
• Alpha-blockers: Increased risk of hypotension
• Antifungal agents (ketoconazole, itraconazole): Increased Tadalafil exposure
• HIV protease inhibitors: Increased Tadalafil levels
• Rifampin: Decreased Tadalafil efficacy
• Alcohol: May increase hypotensive effects
• Other PDE5 inhibitors: Avoid concomitant use

Missed dose

Forzest is taken on an as-needed basis rather than a scheduled regimen. If you miss taking the medication before sexual activity, simply take it when remembered, provided sufficient time remains before planned activity. Do not take an extra dose to make up for a missed one.

Overdose

In case of suspected overdose, seek immediate medical attention. Symptoms may include severe headache, dizziness, fainting, prolonged erection, or cardiovascular effects. Supportive measures should be implemented, including maintaining blood pressure and symptomatic treatment. Hemodialysis is not expected to significantly enhance elimination.

Storage

Store at room temperature (15-30°C/59-86°F) in original packaging. Protect from light and moisture. Keep out of reach of children and pets. Do not use after expiration date printed on packaging. Properly dispose of unused medication according to local regulations.
