The standard starting dose of generic Viagra (sildenafil) is 50 mg taken orally as needed, approximately one hour before sexual activity. This dose can be increased to 100 mg or decreased to 25 mg based on individual response and tolerance.
Never exceed 100 mg in a 24-hour period. Consult your doctor before adjusting your dosage.
Take the tablet whole with a glass of water. Avoid grapefruit juice, as it can interact with sildenafil and alter its effects.
The medication’s effectiveness can be influenced by factors like food intake. For optimal results, take it on an empty stomach or with a light meal.
