Oral Administration
Sildenafil may be taken between 0.5 and 4 hours before sexual activity. May be administered without regard to meals.
See Drug Interactions; certain medications (e.g., nitrates) should not be taken with sildenafil and the administration of other medications (e.g., alpha blockers) concurrently may require a sildenafil dosage adjustment.

With a mortar and pestle, grind thirty 25-mg sildenafil citrate tablets to a fine powder.
In a separate container, mix one of the following: 1) 150 ml of Ora-Sweet® with 150 mL of Ora-Plus®; or 2) 150 mL of Simple Syrup, NF with 150 mL of methylcellulose 1%.
Add a small amount of the mixture to the fine powder and mix into a uniform paste. Add geometric amounts of the vehicle to the almost desired volume while mixing. Transfer to a graduated cylinder and adjust to volume while mixing.
