GENERIC VIAGRA Cenforce 100mg

What is Cenforce 100mg?

Cenforce 100mg is an erectile dysfunction (ED) medicine containing sildenafil citrate—the same active ingredient as Viagra®. It increases penile blood flow during sexual stimulation to help achieve and maintain an erection.

Composition: Each film-coated tablet contains sildenafil citrate equivalent to sildenafil 100 mg; excipients q.s.

Form: Oral, film-coated tablets.

Intended users: Adult men 18+ with ED after medical evaluation.

How it works

Sildenafil inhibits PDE-5, preserving cGMP in penile tissue. This relaxes smooth muscle and increases blood flow when sexual stimulation is present.

• Onset: ~30–60 minutes

• Peak: ~60–120 minutes

• Duration: ~4–6 hours (varies)

• Food effect: High-fat meals can delay onset

Recommended dosage

100 mg is a high dose. Many patients start at 50 mg and adjust based on response and tolerability.

• Take 1 tablet with water 30–60 minutes before sexual activity.

• Do not exceed 1 dose in 24 hours.

• Limit alcohol; it can increase dizziness and lower blood pressure.

• Do not split/crush unless a pharmacist advises.

Who should not use Cenforce 100mg

Do not use if you have:

• Allergy to sildenafil or tablet components

• Use of nitrates (e.g., nitroglycerin) or riociguat

• Severe heart disease, recent MI/stroke, uncontrolled low/high blood pressure

• Severe liver or kidney impairment

• Retinitis pigmentosa or prior sudden vision loss (NAION)

• Blood disorders (sickle cell anemia, leukemia, multiple myeloma) or priapism risk

• Anatomical penile deformity (e.g., Peyronie’s)

• Under 18 or women

Drug and food interactions

• Contraindicated: Nitrates, riociguat

• Use caution / dose adjustments may be needed: Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors (ketoconazole, itraconazole, clarithromycin, ritonavir/cobicistat)

• Blood pressure: Alpha-blockers/antihypertensives may increase hypotension risk

• Alcohol & grapefruit: Alcohol can worsen hypotension; grapefruit may raise sildenafil levels

Possible side effects

Common: Headache, flushing, nasal congestion, dyspepsia, dizziness; transient blue-tinged vision can occur.

Less common: Back/muscle pain, nausea, hot flushes.

Serious—seek emergency care:

• Priapism (erection >4 hours)

• Sudden vision or hearing loss

How to get the best results

• Avoid very heavy/high-fat meals right before dosing.

• Time the dose 30–60 minutes before sex.

• Sexual stimulation is required.

• If response is inadequate, discuss medical dose adjustment or switching agents (e.g., tadalafil) with a clinician. Do not self-increase beyond 100 mg.

FAQs

Is Cenforce 100mg the same as Generic Viagra?

Yes. Cenforce contains sildenafil, the same active ingredient as Viagra®. Therapeutically equivalent at equal doses.

How long before it works, and how long does it last?

Usually 30–60 minutes to start working; lasts ~4–6 hours. Heavy meals can slow the start.

Can I take it daily?

Sildenafil is typically as-needed, no more than once per day. For frequent use, a clinician may consider tadalafil daily (2.5–5 mg).

Can I drink alcohol?

Limit alcohol. It can increase dizziness and lower blood pressure, reducing effectiveness.

I have heart disease—can I use it?

Only under clinician guidance. Never use with nitrates or riociguat.

50 mg vs 100 mg—what’s better?

Start doses are often 50 mg. 100 mg may help non-responders but increases side-effect risk. Your clinician should decide.

Is sildenafil addictive?

No. It is not habit-forming, but misuse can be harmful.
