Product Introduction

Avanair 100mg Tablets are phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors containing the active ingredient Avanafil. The medication is used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED), which is the inability to maintain an erection sufficient for satisfactory sexual performance.

Do not use this medicine if you have a known allergy to Avanafil or any component of the tablet. This medication is intended for adult men only; it should not be used by children or women.

Priapism, a prolonged erection lasting longer than four hours, has been associated with this drug. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience such an erection, as untreated priapism can cause permanent damage to penile tissue and result in permanent erectile dysfunction.

Before taking Avanair 100mg Tablet, inform your physician if you have serious bleeding disorders or are currently undergoing treatment for an ulcer. This drug may increase the risk of bleeding disorders and peptic ulcer in the stomach or duodenum.

The medication can cause a sudden decrease in blood pressure. Inform your doctor if you have a history of heart disorders, low blood pressure, chest pain, or other cardiovascular conditions.

Sudden vision or hearing loss has been reported rarely with Avanair 100mg Tablet. Discontinue the drug immediately if you experience sudden changes in vision or hearing.

Concurrent consumption of grapefruit juice or alcohol while taking this tablet may increase the risk of adverse effects. It is advisable to limit or avoid alcohol and grapefruit juice during treatment with this medication.

Uses

Treatment of Erectile dysfunction

How it works

Avanair 100mg Tablet works by inhibiting the action of the enzyme PDE5, which is responsible for the degradation of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP). By blocking PDE5, Avanafil helps to increase the levels of cGMP, which promotes relaxation of the smooth muscles in the penile region and improves blood flow, leading to an erection.

How to Use

It is an orally available prescription drug. Your doctor will decide the duration and dose of the drug based on the disease condition and other factors. Always take an Avanair 100mg Tablet 30 minutes before sexual activity. Do not open, break, chew, or crush the tablet. Swallow the whole tablet with water.

Side Effects

Side effects are unwanted symptoms caused by medicines. Even though all drugs cause side effects, not everyone gets them. Serious Loss of vision Loss of hearing Blurred vision Priapism Common Flushing (sense of warmth in the ears, neck, and face) Headache Back pain Nasopharyngitis (inflammation of the nasal passages) Nasal congestion (stuffy nose)

Expert Tips

Avanair 100mg Tablet alone does not cause spontaneous erections. Sexual stimulation is required for an erection. Engage in the usual sexual foreplay and stimulation as desired. This drug is taken on an as-needed basis before sexual activity. It is not intended for daily use. Do not exceed the recommended dosage frequency or take more than one dose within a day, as it can increase the chance of serious side effects.
