Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Sildenafil 2.5 mg/ml Oral Suspension is a compounded medication that is utilized in the treatment of various health conditions. This includes erectile dysfunction, pulmonary arterial hypertension, and Raynaud's phenomenon. In the context of erectile dysfunction, sildenafil functions by enhancing blood flow to the penis, thereby facilitating an erection. For pulmonary arterial hypertension, it operates by relaxing the blood vessels in the lungs, which improves blood flow and oxygenation. In the case of Raynaud's phenomenon, sildenafil increases blood flow to the affected areas, mitigating the frequency and severity of attacks.

This oral suspension is a liquid dosage form in which one or more ingredients are uniformly dispersed throughout a liquid medium. This ensures a homogeneous mixture for administration, making it easy to consume and generally associated with minimal side effects. Sildenafil 2.5 mg/ml Oral Suspension is available in various strengths and can be ingested with or without food. However, it is crucial to remember that sildenafil should not be consumed in conjunction with certain medications, such as nitrates, as this can lead to a dangerous drop in blood pressure.

At Bayview Pharmacy, our team of compounding pharmacists is well-versed and experienced in preparing Sildenafil 2.5 mg/ml Oral Suspension.

How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Sildenafil 2.5 mg/ml Oral Suspension is a compounded medication designed to treat a variety of conditions including erectile dysfunction, pulmonary arterial hypertension, and benign prostatic hyperplasia. This medication functions by relaxing the muscles within the walls of blood vessels, allowing them to expand and increase blood flow to the penis, lungs, and prostate. The enhanced blood flow aids in alleviating symptoms associated with these conditions.

For the treatment of erectile dysfunction, sildenafil is typically taken as required, generally 30 minutes to 1 hour prior to sexual activity. The dosage can be adjusted based on the patient's response. In the case of pulmonary arterial hypertension, sildenafil is usually taken once daily, preferably in the morning. Again, the dosage can be adjusted based on the patient's response. For benign prostatic hyperplasia, sildenafil is typically taken once daily, usually in the evening. The dosage can be adjusted based on the patient's response.

One of its primary uses is for the treatment of high blood pressure in the lungs, also known as pulmonary hypertension.

This is a condition where the small blood vessels in the fingers and toes become narrowed, leading to decreased blood flow. This can result in the affected areas feeling cold and numb, particularly in response to cold temperatures or stress.

Sildenafil 2.5 mg/ml Oral Suspension may also be used to treat priapism, a condition where an erection lasts for more than four hours without sexual stimulation. This can be a serious condition that requires immediate medical attention to prevent long-term damage.

Finally, Sildenafil 2.5 mg/ml Oral Suspension can be used to treat Peyronie's Disease, a condition where the penis becomes curved due to the buildup of scar tissue. This can cause pain and difficulty with sexual intercourse.
