Indications
Aventy Tablet is used for:
Erectile Dysfunction
Adult Dose
Erectile Dysfunction
100 mg PO initially as early as 15 min before sexual activity; not to exceed 1 dose/day
Based on individual efficacy and tolerability, the dose may be increased to 200 mg taken as early as ~15 minutes before sexual activity, or decreased to 50 mg taken ~30 minutes before sexual activity
Use the lowest effective dose
Child Dose
Renal Dose
Renal Impairment
Mild-to-moderate (CrCl ?30 mL/min): Dose adjustment not necessary
Severe impairment (CrCl 15-29 mL/min): Safety and efficacy not established; do not use
Administration
May take with or without food
Contra Indications
Hypersensitivity
Soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) stimulators (eg, riociguat or vericiguat); concomitant use can cause hypotension
Coadministration with nitrates
Coadministration with nitrates (either regularly and/or intermittently) and nitric oxide donors
Consistent with the effects of PDE5 inhibition on the nitric oxide/cyclic guanosine monophosphate pathway, PDE5 inhibitors may potentiate the hypotensive effects of nitrates
A suitable time interval following PDE5 dosing for the safe administration of nitrates or nitric oxide donors has not been determined
Precautions
Patients should not use Avanafil if sexual activity is inadvisable due to cardiovascular status or any other reason
Use of Avanafil with alpha-blockers, other antihypertensives, or substantial amounts of alcohol (greater than 3 units) may lead to hypotension
Patients should seek emergency treatment if an erection lasts greater than 4 hours
Patients should stop Avanafil and seek medical care if a sudden loss of vision occurs in one or both eyes, which could be a sign of Non
Arteritic Ischemic Optic Neuropathy (NAION). Avanafil should be used with caution, and only when the anticipated benefits outweigh the risks, in patients with a history of NAION. Patients with a “crowded” optic disc may also be at an increased risk of NAION
Patients should stop taking Avanafil and seek prompt medical attention in the event of a sudden decrease or loss of hearing
Monitoring Parameters
Monitor patients with left ventricular outflow obstruction (eg, aortic stenosis, idiopathic hypertrophic subaortic stenosis)
Pregnancy-Lactation
Pregnancy Category: C
Lactation: Safety and efficacy not established
Interactions
Avanafil can potentiate the hypotensive effect of nitrates, alpha-blockers, antihypertensives, and alcohol
CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., ketoconazole, ritonavir, erythromycin) increase Avanafil exposure

Mechanism of Action
Sexual stimulation causes nitric oxide to be released in the corpus cavernosum; nitric oxide activates the enzyme guanylate cyclase, which in turn increases cGMP levels; increase in cGMP levels causes smooth muscle relaxation.
Phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors enhance the effects of nitric oxide in smooth muscle relaxation of the corpus cavernosum by inhibiting the degradation of cGMP.
