Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Sildenafil 25 mg Vaginal Suppository is a compounded medication specifically designed to address a range of disease states. This formulation is a topical application of sildenafil, a phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitor, traditionally used in the treatment of erectile dysfunction. However, in this unique formulation, the suppository is inserted vaginally, allowing for the medication to be absorbed directly through the mucous membranes. This method of application facilitates a more immediate and direct absorption of the medication into the body.

This particular formulation of Sildenafil 25 mg Vaginal Suppository is also utilized in the treatment of female sexual arousal disorder, vulvodynia, and other conditions associated with pelvic pain. However, it is crucial to note that this formulation is not recommended for use in pregnant or breastfeeding women due to potential risks.

Patients should also be aware of potential side effects associated with this medication. These may include nausea, headache, and flushing. It is always recommended to discuss any concerns or potential side effects with a healthcare provider before starting any new medication.

At Bayview Pharmacy, our team of dedicated compounding pharmacists is committed to providing the highest quality of care to our patients. We strive to ensure that our compounded medications meet the specific needs of each individual patient. If you have any questions about this formulation or any other compounded medications, please do not hesitate to reach out to us. We are here to provide the support and information you need to make informed decisions about your healthcare.

Drug Interactions

A small arrow pointing down

Sildenafil 25 mg Vaginal Suppository is a solid dosage form designed for insertion into the vagina. It is primarily used for the treatment of female sexual arousal disorder (FSAD) and female orgasmic disorder (FOD). This medication is also beneficial in managing pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) in women. It is important to note that Sildenafil should not be used in conjunction with nitrates or nitric oxide donors, as this combination can lead to a significant drop in blood pressure.

Patients are advised to abstain from alcohol and grapefruit juice while on this medication, as these substances can interfere with the effectiveness of the drug and potentially lead to adverse reactions. Regular monitoring for signs of hypotension, such as dizziness, lightheadedness, and fainting, is recommended. Additionally, patients should be vigilant for signs of an allergic reaction, which may include rash, hives, itching, difficulty breathing, or swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat. Immediate medical attention should be sought if any of these symptoms occur.

It is crucial for patients to inform their healthcare provider about any other medications they are currently taking. This includes herbal supplements, vitamins, and over-the-counter medications, as these can interact with Sildenafil and affect its efficacy or safety. If you have any questions or concerns about this medication, please do not hesitate to reach out to your healthcare provider for further information and guidance.

How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Sildenafil 25 mg Vaginal Suppository is a specially compounded medication designed to treat a range of conditions. This suppository is inserted into the vagina, where it gradually dissolves to release the active ingredient, sildenafil. As a phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor, sildenafil works by enhancing blood flow to the pelvic region. This increased circulation can be beneficial in treating conditions such as female sexual arousal disorder, vulvodynia, and dyspareunia. Additionally, it can help alleviate pain associated with these conditions.

When using the Sildenafil 25 mg Vaginal Suppository, it is crucial to adhere to the instructions given by your healthcare provider. The suppository should be inserted into the vagina and left in place for a minimum of 8 hours. It's important to remember that the suppository should not be used more than once in a 24-hour period.

While the Sildenafil 25 mg Vaginal Suppository is a appropriate treatment for various conditions, it is essential to consult with your healthcare provider before starting this medication. This will ensure that it is the most suitable treatment option for your specific needs. If you have any queries or concerns about this formulation, please don't hesitate to reach out for further information.

Enter the formula as a compound

Compounded preparations have no NDC, so this formula will not appear in your EHR's drug search. Use your system's compound, non-formulary, or free-text prescription entry and name the preparation exactly as written in step 3. If your EHR forces you to pick a listed drug, pick the closest entry for the active ingredient and put the full formula in the prescription body (the Sig or directions field), not in Notes to Pharmacy.

Compounded preparations have no NDC and will not appear in your drug search. For EPCS to validate, select a drug entry your EHR recognizes as controlled, usually the bulk powder entry for the active ingredient (for example Ketamine (bulk) powder, not a branded product), then put the full formula from step 3 in the prescription body. A free-text entry that does not validate as controlled will be rejected by your EPCS module.
