How Performax works
Performax is a phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE-5) inhibitor. It works by relaxing the blood vessels in your penis, thereby increasing blood flow into the penis on sexual stimulation. This helps you achieve and maintain a hard, erect penis suitable for sexual activity.
What if you forget to take Performax?
If you miss a dose of Performax, take it as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular schedule. Do not double the dose.

- Do not take it more than once a day.
- Seek medical attention if the erection persists for more than 4 hours after sexual intercourse.
- Do not use Performax if you have recently taken nitrates (medicines used in angina or chest pain).
- Do not take it if you have had a heart attack in the past 3 months, or stroke or heart failure in the past 6 months.
Brief Description
Indication
Erectile dysfunction, Pulmonary arterial hypertension
Administration
May be taken with or without food.
Adult Dose
Oral
Erectile dysfunction
Adult: 50 mg about 1 hr before sexual intercourse. May adjust dose depending on penile response.
Max: 100 mg/dose and not to be taken > once in 24 hr.
Elderly: >65 yr: Lower initial dose at 25 mg.
Hepatic impairment: Initially, 25 mg.
Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
20 mg 3 times daily, administered 4-6 hours apart
Renal Dose
Renal impairment:
CrCl (ml/min) Dosage Recommendation
<30 Initially, 25 mg.
Contraindication
Hypersensitivity. Patients concurrently or intermittently using organic nitrates in any form.
Mode of Action
Sildenafil inhibits phosphodiesterase type-5 (PDE5) which is responsible for cGMP degradation in the corpus cavernosum. Inhibition of PDE5 increases cGMP levels in the corpus cavernosum which results in smooth muscle relaxation and inflow of blood to the corpus cavernosum.
Precaution
Caution when used in patients with anatomical deformation of penis or conditions that may predispose them to priapism (e.g. sickle cell anaemia, myeloma, or leukaemia). Mild, transient, dose-related impairment of colour discrimination (blue/green) may occur. Hepatic or severe renal impairment, bleeding disorders, active peptic ulceration, hypotension, recent history of stroke, MI, arrhythmias, unstable angina, heart failure or retinal disorders. May cause sudden loss or decrease in hearing.
Side Effect
>10%
Headache (7-16%)
1-10%
Flushing (4-10%),Epistaxis (8%),Dyspepsia (4-8%),Insomnia (6%),Erythema (5%),Diarrhea (4%),Dizziness (2%),Skin rash (2%)
Interaction
Inhibitors of CYP3A4 such as cimetidine and erythromycin are likely to reduce sildenafil clearance. CYP3A4 inducers such as rifampicin may decrease the plasma concentrations of sildenafil. Symptomatic hypotension when used with beta-blockers. Plasma concentrations are increased by ritonavir.
Potentially Fatal: May potentiate hypotensive effects of of organic nitrates and nicorandil.
