Optithik Tablet 25 mg

Optithik Tablet 25 mg is a prescription medicine that contains sildenafil citrate 25 mg in each tablet. It belongs to a group of medicines called phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors. Optithik Tablet 25 mg is used to treat erectile dysfunction in adult men by helping improve the ability to get and keep an erection when sexually stimulated.

How it works: Sildenafil citrate in Optithik Tablet 25 mg relaxes blood vessels in the penis so more blood can flow in during sexual arousal. As an oral tablet, it is absorbed through the stomach and intestines after you swallow it with water.

Optithik Tablet 25 mg is the lower tablet strength of sildenafil citrate and may be chosen when a doctor wants a gentler starting point, especially for men who are older, more sensitive to side effects, or taking other medicines that may affect sildenafil levels. Because it is a 25 mg tablet, it may be better tolerated than higher-strength tablets, but it can still work only with sexual stimulation and is not a daily automatic effect.

• Erectile dysfunction
• Difficulty getting an erection
• Difficulty maintaining an erection
• Erectile dysfunction when a lower sildenafil dose is preferred

• Swallow the Optithik Tablet 25 mg whole with water; do not crush or chew it.
• Take it about 30 to 60 minutes before sexual activity.
• Sexual stimulation is needed for it to work.
• You may take it with or without food, but a heavy or high-fat meal may slow how fast it starts working.
• Do not take more than one Optithik Tablet 25 mg in 24 hours unless your doctor specifically tells you to.
• Follow your prescriber's instructions exactly, especially if you have kidney or liver problems or take interacting medicines.

Each Optithik Tablet 25 mg provides 25 mg of sildenafil citrate. Your doctor decides how often you should take it; for erectile dysfunction, sildenafil is usually taken as needed and not more than once per day. The right dose depends on your age, health conditions, and other medicines, so do not increase the dose on your own.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.
