Taking the Medication
Take Sildenafil Citrate orally with a glass of water. You can take it with or without food, but be aware that fatty foods may delay absorption.
Dosage Adjustment

Patients with liver problems: Dosage adjustments are often necessary; your doctor will determine the appropriate dose. Patients with kidney problems: Your doctor will tailor the dosage based on your kidney function.
Do not exceed the maximum recommended dose of 100mg in a 24-hour period. It is crucial to follow your doctor’s instructions carefully.
