Palgra Jelly 100 mg Oral Gel: What You Need to Know

What it is

Palgra Jelly contains sildenafil citrate, which belongs to a class of medicines called phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5) inhibitors. These work by increasing blood flow to the penis to help achieve and maintain an erection.

What it's used for

Palgra Jelly is used for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED) in men.

How it's taken

Dosing for sildenafil depends on individual needs. The usual recommended dose is 50 mg taken about one hour before sexual activity, as needed. Based on how well it works and how you tolerate it, a doctor may increase the dose to 100 mg or decrease it to 25 mg. Palgra Jelly is a 100 mg strength. Do not take more than one dose in a 24-hour period. Always follow your doctor or pharmacist's instructions.

Common side effects

Possible side effects from sildenafil include prolonged erections lasting more than 4 hours (priapism), sudden loss of vision in one or both eyes, sudden hearing loss, and low blood pressure when taken with alpha-blockers or antihypertensives. Seek emergency medical attention if any of these occur.

Important cautions

Do not take Palgra Jelly if you are using nitrates (often prescribed for chest pain) or riociguat (a medicine for pulmonary hypertension). Also avoid if you are allergic to sildenafil. If you have a history of heart disease, consult your doctor before taking this medicine. Emergency treatment is needed for an erection lasting more than 4 hours. Stop use and see a doctor immediately if you experience sudden vision or hearing loss.
