Udenafil Dosage and Usage for Erectile Dysfunction
Dosing Recommendations
- Dose titration is important to provide optimal efficacy, as recommended for all PDE5 inhibitors 1
Special Populations
- Similar to other PDE5 inhibitors, caution should be exercised in patients with hepatic or renal impairment, with potential need for lower doses 1
- In men with diabetes or post-prostatectomy, response may be less robust, as observed with other PDE5 inhibitors 1
Safety and Adverse Events
- Like other PDE5 inhibitors, udenafil is contraindicated in patients taking nitrates due to risk of significant hypotension 1
Important Instructions for Patients
- Sexual stimulation is necessary for udenafil to be effective, as with all PDE5 inhibitors 1
- Incorrect use (lack of sexual stimulation, medication taken with a large meal) accounts for many treatment failures 1
- Multiple trials with the medication may be required to establish efficacy 1
