Idilico

Sildenafil, the active ingredient in Idilico, is a phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor presented as an oral tablet for oral use. It is indicated for the treatment of erectile dysfunction in adult males and works by enhancing blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation.

GNH USA supplies Idilico as a licensed, GDP‑compliant international pharmaceutical supplier serving hospitals, pharmacies and clinics worldwide, ensuring consistent quality and regulatory compliance across EU and global markets.

Idilico (sildenafil) acts on the phosphodiesterase type 5 pathway to treat erectile dysfunction.

- Erectile dysfunction: Improves the ability to achieve and maintain an erection sufficient for sexual activity.

Common Side Effects: - Headache: mild to moderate pain often occurring within a few hours of dosing. - Flushing: warmth and redness of the face or upper body. - Dyspepsia: indigestion or upset stomach. - Nasal congestion: blocked or runny nose. - Visual disturbances: blurred vision or color tinge. - Back pain: mild muscular discomfort.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Priapism: prolonged erection lasting more than four hours, requiring emergency care. - Sudden vision loss: abrupt loss of vision in one or both eyes. - Sudden hearing loss: unexpected loss of hearing or ringing in the ears. - Severe hypotension: marked drop in blood pressure, especially with nitrate use. - Cardiovascular events: chest pain or heart attack in susceptible individuals. - Allergic reactions: rash, itching, swelling, or difficulty breathing.

Before using Idilico, consider the following precautions: - Cardiovascular assessment: ensure the patient can tolerate sexual activity without undue risk. - Nitrate use: avoid concomitant use with nitrates due to risk of severe hypotension. - Renal impairment: dose may need adjustment in patients with reduced kidney function. - Visual changes: discontinue if sudden loss of vision occurs. - Hearing changes: stop the medication if sudden hearing loss or ringing is experienced. - Store at ambient temperature: keep in the original packaging, protect from moisture and heat, and store below 25 °C.

Idilico may interact with several medicines. Review the following categories:

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Nitrates (e.g., nitroglycerin): can cause dangerous drops in blood pressure. - Guanylate cyclase stimulators (e.g., riociguat): may lead to severe hypotension. - Potent CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., ketoconazole, itraconazole): increase sildenafil plasma levels.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Alpha‑blockers (e.g., doxazosin): may cause additive blood pressure effects. - Antihypertensives (e.g., beta‑blockers): monitor for enhanced hypotensive response. - CYP3A4 inducers (e.g., rifampin, carbamazepine): may reduce sildenafil effectiveness.
