Apo Sildenafil R Dosage

The recommended adult dose of sildenafil for pulmonary hypertension is 20 mg 3 times daily. Doses should be taken approximately 6 to 8 hours apart.

Sildenafil may be taken with or without food.

The solution for injection is used to continue treatment with sildenafil when a person with pulmonary hypertension is temporarily unable to take sildenafil by mouth. The maximum dose of this form of sildenafil is 10 mg given by intravenous (into a vein) injection 3 times a day. This dose of sildenafil is approximately equal in activity to 20 mg of sildenafil taken by mouth.

Many things can affect the dose of a medication that a person needs, such as body weight, other medical conditions, and other medications. If your doctor has recommended a dose different from the ones listed here, do not change the way that you are taking the medication without consulting your doctor.

It is important that Apo Sildenafil R be taken exactly as prescribed by your doctor. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as possible and continue with your regular schedule.
