Konegra Fast is Sildenafil Citrate in Oral Soluble Films.

ORAL THIN FILMS (OTF) - The new drug delivery system set to revolutionise the mode of drug administration.

Conventional oral solid dosage forms like tablets and capsules, despite their several advantages and resultant popularity, suffer from one great disadvantage, that is they have to be swallowed preferably with water or any other liquid. Voluntary swallowing is a hindrance in drug administration for children, the elderly, mentally challenged, nauseated, unconscious and bedridden patients.

A need for non-obstructive dosage form possessing the other advantages of tablets has been felt constantly by physicians and patients for many years. The concept of oral thin film as drug-delivering dosage forms evolved as an answer to the need for this special need patient population.

Konegra Fast Sildenafil Citrate in Oral Soluble Films is a potent inhibitor of cyclic guanosine monophosphate in the corpus cavernosum and therefore increases the penile response to sexual stimulation. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of sildenafil, administered as needed in two sequential double-blind studies of men with erectile dysfunction of organic, psychogenic, or mixed causes.

Sildenafil (Viagra) is used to treat erectile dysfunction (impotence; inability to get or keep an erection) in men. Sildenafil (Revatio) is used to improve the ability to exercise in adults with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH; high blood pressure in the vessels carrying blood to the lungs, causing shortness of breath, dizziness, and tiredness). Children should not usually take sildenafil, but in some cases, a doctor may decide that sildenafil (Revatio) is the best medication to treat a child's condition. Sildenafil is in a class of medications called phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors. Sildenafil treats erectile dysfunction by increasing blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation. This increased blood flow can cause an erection. Sildenafil treats PAH by relaxing the blood vessels in the lungs to allow blood to flow easily.

If you are taking sildenafil to treat erectile dysfunction, you should know that it does not cure erectile dysfunction or increase sexual desire.
