50mg Sildenafil Citrate Tablet

SUPER-2 (NCT00159887) Long-term Treatment of PAH In a long-term follow-up of patients who were treated with sildenafil (n=277), K-M estimates of survival at 1, 2, and 3 years were 94%, 88% , and 79%, respectively.

What is sildenafil?

These uncontrolled observations do not allow comparison with a group not given sildenafil and cannot be used to determine the long term-effect of sildenafil on mortality. PACES-1 ( NCT00159861) - Sildenafil Citrate Co-administered with Epoprostenol A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study (PACES-1) was conducted in 267 patients with PAH who were taking stable doses of intravenous epoprostenol. Patients were randomized to placebo or sildenafil citrate (in a fixed titration starting from 20 mg, to 40 mg and then 80 mg, three times a day) and all patients continued intravenous epoprostenol therapy. At baseline patients had PPH (80%) or PAH secondary to CTD (20%);WHO Functional Class I (1%), II (26%), III (67%), or IV (6%); and the mean age was 48 years, 80% were female, and 79% were Caucasian. There was a statistically significant greater increase from baseline in 6-minute walk distance at Week 16 (primary endpoint) for the sildenafil citrate group compared with the placebo group. The mean change from baseline at Week 16 (last observation carried forward) was 30 meters for the sildenafil tablet group compared with 4 meters for the placebo group giving an adjusted treatment difference of 26 meters (95% CI: 10.8, 41.2) (p = 0.0009).

Patients on sildenafil citrate achieved a statistically significant reduction in mPAP compared to those on placebo. A mean placebo-corrected treatment effect of -3.9 mmHg was observed in favor of sildenafil tablet (95% CI: -5.7, -2.1) (p = 0.00003). Time to clinical worsening of PAH was defined as the time from randomization to the first occurrence of a clinical worsening event (death, lung transplantation, initiation of bosentan therapy, or clinical deterioration requiring a change in epoprostenol therapy). Kaplan- Meier plot of time to clinical worsening is presented in Figure 5. Kaplan-Meier Plot of Time (in Days) to Clinical Worsening of PAH in PACES-1 Improvements in WHO Functional Class for PAH were also demonstrated in patients on sildenafil tablet compared to placebo. More than twice as many sildenafil citrate -treated patients (36%) as placebo-treated patients (14%) showed an improvement in at least one functional New York Heart Association (NYHA) class for PAH. Study A1481243 ( NCT00323297) Sildenafil citrate Added to Bosentan Therapy - Lack of Effect on Exercise Capacity A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study was conducted in 103 patients with PAH who were on bosentan therapy for a minimum of 3 months. The results indicate that there is no 20mg sildenafil significant difference in mean change from baseline on 6MWD observed between sildenafil 20 mg plus bosentan and bosentan alone. STARTS-1 ( NCT00159913) - Sildenafil in Treatment-Naive Children, Aged 1 to 17 Years, With Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension A total of 234 patients with PAH aged 1 to 17 years were treated in a randomized, double-blind, multi-center, placebo-controlled parallel group, dose-ranging study. Patients were WHO Functional Class I (32%), II (51%), III (15%), or IV (0.4%).

Written By

Patients were allocated to one of three sildenafil treatment groups (low, medium, or high) or placebo. Actual doses administered were dependent on canadian sildenafil citrate body weight (see Table 5). The proportion of patients receiving supportive medicinal products at baseline (anticoagulants, digoxin, calcium channel blockers, diuretics and/or oxygen) was similar in the combined sildenafil treatment group (48%) and the placebo treatment group (42%). The primary endpoint was a percentage change in VO2peak from baseline to week 16 assessed by CPET. A total of 45% of patients were evaluable for CPET, which comprised those children ≥7 years old and developmentally able to perform the test.

What should I do if I accidentally use too much sildenafil?

Children <7 years were evaluable only for the secondary endpoints. Mean increases in VO 2peakpercentage change from baseline at Week 16, were observed with all 3 sildenafil doses (range of 6% to 13%, Figure 6), with little change with placebo (0.5%). Percentage Change from Baseline in VO2Peak: Mean (95% Confidence Intervals) The estimated difference between the combined sildenafil doses and placebo was 8% (95% CI: 0.2 to 16). The results of the main analysis (combined dose groups versus placebo) were not statistically significant (p=0.056). The estimated difference between the sildenafil medium dose group and placebo was 11±5% (95% CI: 2 to 21). Patients were naïve for specific PAH therapy and the use of prostacyclin, prostacyclin analogues and endothelin receptor antagonists were not permitted in the study, and neither were arginine supplementation, nitrates, alpha-blockers and potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitors. The primary objective of the study was to assess the effect of Sildenafil citrate on percent change from baseline in PVO2, normalized to body weight, from baseline to week 16 as measured by the Cardiopulmonary Exercise Test (CPET) (patients who were developmentally able to perform the test, n = 115). Secondary endpoints included hemodynamic monitoring, symptom assessment, WHO Functional Class, change in background treatment, and quality of life measurements (n = 234). Patients were allocated to one of three sildenafil treatment groups (low, medium, or high) or placebo.

• Sildenafil has a rapid onset but should not be used as a daily medication without approval.
• It is intended for episodic use before sexual activity.
• Discuss alternative options with a healthcare provider for ongoing issues.

Mean increases in VO 2peakpercentage change from baseline at Week 16, were observed with all 3 sildenafil doses (range of 6% to 13%, Figure 6), with little change with placebo (0.5%).

STARTS-2 ( NCT00159874) - Long-Term Survival with Oral Sildenafil Monotherapy in Treatment-Naïve Pediatric Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Of the 234 pediatric patients treated in the short-term, placebo-controlled study, 220 patients entered the long-term extension study. By sildenafil treatment group, median duration of sildenafil treatment was 1,696 days (excluding the 5 patients who received placebo in double-blind and were not treated in the long-term extension study). Peak VO 2was assessed 1 year after the start of the placebo-controlled study. Similarly, 191 of 229 patients (83%) who had received sildenafil had either maintained or improved their WHO Functional Class at 1 year assessment. Kaplan-Meier estimates of survival at 3 years in patients >20 kg in weight at baseline were 94%, 93%, and 85% in the low, medium, and high dose groups, respectively; for patients ≤20 kg in weight at baseline, the survival estimates were 94% and 93% for patients in the medium and high dose groups, respectively [ see Use in Specific Populations ( 8.4) and Adverse Reactions ( 6.1) ]. Study A1481324 ( NCT02060487) - Study to Assess the Effects of Sildenafil citrate on Mortality in Adults with PAH A study to assess the effects of multiple doses of sildenafil on mortality in adults with PAH was conducted following the observation of a higher risk of mortality in pediatric patients taking a high dose of Sildenafil citrate TID, based on body weight, compared to those taking a lower dose of Sildenafil citrate in the long-term extension of the pediatric clinical trial. The study was a randomized, double-blind, parallel-group study in 385 adults with PAH.

• Sildenafil citrate 50 mg is used to treat erectile dysfunction in men.
• The typical starting dose is 50 mg taken about one hour before activity.
• It should not be used more than once per 24 hours.

Treatment groups were well balanced with respect to baseline demographics of strata history of sildenafil oral jelly 100mg lovegra PAH treatment and etiology of PAH, as well as the WHO Functional Class categories.

Mechanism of action

An additional secondary endpoint was 6MWD at Months 6 and 12. Kaplan-Meier estimates of survival at 3 years were 66%, 79%, and 85% in the 5-, 20-, and 80mg TID dose groups, respectively At baseline, the median of 6MWD for the intent-to-treat (ITT) population was 332 to 352 m. At Month 6, the median change from baseline was highest for sildenafil 80 mg TID with 28 m compared to 18 m and 19 m for sildenafil 5 mg TID and sildenafil 20 mg TID groups, respectively. The same was seen at Month 12, the median change from baseline for sildenafil 80 mg TID group was 33 m compared to 17 m for sildenafil 5 mg TID and 31 m in sildenafil 20 mg TID groups. Overall, the safety data for sildenafil 20 mg TID and for the higher sildenafil 80 mg TID dose were consistent with the established safety profile of sildenafil in previous adult PAH studies [ see Adverse Reactions ( 6.1) ].

The primary objective of the study was to compare sildenafil 80 mg TID versus 5 mg TID for mortality, with success defined by ruling out twice the mortality at 80 mg. The key secondary efficacy endpoint was time to first event of clinical worsening, defined as a composite endpoint of all-cause mortality, hospitalization for worsening PAH or disease progression. An additional secondary endpoint was 6MWD at Months 6 and 12.
