WHAT BLUGRAL IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR Blugral contains the active substance sildenafil which belongs to a group of medicines called phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE 5) inhibitors. It works by helping to relax the blood vessels in your penis, allowing blood to flow into your penis when you get sexually excited. Blugral will only help you to get an erection if you are sexually stimulated. Blugral is a treatment for adult men with erectile dysfunction, sometimes known as impotence. This is when a man cannot get, or keep a hard, erect penis suitable for sexual activity. 2.

SUMMARY OF PRODUCT CHARACTERISTICS 1 NAME OF THE MEDICINAL PRODUCT Blugral 50 mg film coated tablets 2 QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE COMPOSITION Each 50mg tablet contains 50mg of sildenafil (as citrate) Excipient with known effect: lactose monohydrate 134.46mg For the full list of excipients, see section 6.1. 3 PHARMACEUTICAL FORM Film-coated tablet. Blue rounded diamond-shaped, biconvex, film-coated tablets, marked “U” debossed on one side and “50” on the other. 4 CLINICAL PARTICULARS 4.1 THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS Blugral is indicated in adult men with erectile dysfunction, which is the inability to achieve or maintain a penile erection sufficient for satisfactory sexual performance. In order for Blugral to be effective, sexual stimulation is required. 4.2 POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION Posology _Use in adults:_ The recommended dose is 50 mg taken as needed approximately one hour before sexual activity. Based on efficacy and tolerability, the dose may be increased to 100 mg or decreased to 25 mg. The maximum recommended dose is 100 mg. The maximum recommended dosing frequency is once per day. If Blugral is taken with food, the onset of activity may be delayed compared to the fasted state (see section 5.2). Special population _Elderly:_ Dosage adjustments are not required in elderly patients ( 65 years old). _Renal impairment:_ The dosing recommendations described in 'Use in adults' apply to patients with mild to moderate renal impairment (creatinine clearance = 30-80 mL/min). Since sildenafil clearance is reduced in patients with severe renal impairment (creatinine clearance <30 mL/min) a 25 mg dose should be considered. Based on efficacy and tolerability, the dose may be increased step-wise to 50 mg up to 100 mg as necessary. _Hepatic impairment:_ Since sildenafil clearance is reduced in patients with hepatic impairment (e.g. cirrhosis) a 25 mg dose should be considered. Based on efficacy and tolerability, the dose may be increased step-wise to 50 mg up to 100 mg as necessary. H E A L T H P R O D U Przeczytaj cały dokument
