Compounded Sildenafil (Sildenafil Citrate)
Sildenafil is a phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor prescribed for erectile dysfunction. It supports the natural process that increases blood flow to the penis when stimulation occurs. Healthville Pharmacy prepares compounded sildenafil as a fast dissolving troche in our licensed compounding facility, made to the strength your prescriber orders. Because each preparation is compounded against an individual prescription, the strength and dosage form can be adjusted by your prescriber over time based on your response and tolerance.
Uses & Benefits
Compounded sildenafil may be prescribed for the treatment of erectile dysfunction as part of a plan supervised by a licensed prescriber. Potential benefits may include: May help achieve and maintain an erection sufficient for sexual activity when combined with stimulation. The sublingual troche form dissolves under the tongue and is absorbed through the tissues of the mouth; whether this dosage form fits your treatment plan is a clinical decision for your prescriber. Compounded strength is individualized to your prescription rather than limited to fixed commercial tablet strengths. Use exactly as directed. Never combine sildenafil with nitrates, and review all medications with your prescriber and pharmacist before starting.
